Contrary, I go there every freakin' time, the employees know me by name...heck, I get personal calls on my cell a week in advance so I know when to save up for something coming soon :P. You can't beat friendships like that, my friend ;).
Never, because I'm a decent, civilized person, not an ape.

Yeah me neither, I didn't realize some people were unable to go to a games store without acting like a foolish child. it is for some an epic struggle not to lose all self-control and make an absolute fool of oneself. I've never been kicked out of a Gamestop or EBGames, the guys at my local shops i'm actually good friends with. i usually drop by every Tuesday or Wendsday, maybe put anywhere from 10-60 bucks for a pre-order (games i'm gonna buy anyways at around 50 so might as well go the whole way and get the bonus). or just to chat with em'. I'm going there again this Wednesday. considering getting more PSN cards so i have some money to buy games for my PSP Go. or pre-ordering Gran Turismo 5... hmmm....
we have GAME in the UK. i once got thrown out of their for swapping prices on pre-own games so i got them cheaper. this was in the days before the scanned them and just typed the ticket price in to the till.
I got kicked out of 7/11 because I bought a giant cupholder at Subway(they were in the same store cause they owned both businesses) & I used the cup to fill up a slushy drink from the kool aid area of 7/11. Chinese guy kicked me out but I still got away with it at only like $2.40 & OMG best slushy EVER HUGE DRINK
I don't have too :P but still theres lot of small console shops, also Media Markt or Saturn got crazy deals sometime (i got Killzone 2 + Black Hawk Down BD with 40% pricecut of KZ2 price thanks to that.)
I just walked into a gamestop and I told everyone to get down on the floor now! Those stupid idiots asked me why?I said because this is a f-ing robbery you retards now lay down or stay down dumba$$! These nerds started to talk to me about how this reminded them of kane & lynch. Anyhow I ordered the xbot to get me a 40gig ps3. Why? Because I don't need the cops locking me up for grand larceny. You know what they brought me back? A 80 gig ps3 & a xboxlive gold membership card. I smacked that xbot with a psp, snatched the ps3 & yelled out the crazy playstation babydoll made me do it as I fired my thumb with my finger pointed at thier heads & made a gunshot noise with my mouth.POW!
Not really.I've never been kicked out of any store.though a friend of mines got into a fight with a lemming gs employee back in early 2008.
I was met with foul looks from the manager when I asked how Developers recieve profit from their used games sales? I also inquired as to why anyone would pay 5 dollars below new price to get a used sticker covered version of a game? I than went on to ask about what good preordering is when Best Buy will get 200 copies to their 25 copies? I suppose it allows them to gain interest on our money for no actual reason. I inquired why i would pay for a membership to save 10% on used games I will never buy. I am so excited for the day hopefully sooner than later that Gamstop and it's iterations are just a bad memory.
I've never been kicked out, but if i could be it would be over me talking loudly about how overpriced everything was. EB games is massively over-priced.
1. Told someone not to buy Warhawk via disc but to get online for a lot cheaper
2. Played too long at the demo's.
3. Gave the salesman a weird look.
4. Trying to buy a $30 used game with coins.
5. Knocking over a bunch of 360 display boxes (accident, not out of fanboyism).

Did #4 at an EB. Except in Australia. I tried to buy KZ2 for $110 with 5 years worth of 10 and 5 cent coins. They didn't kick me out though, they sort of just told me to get notes from somewhere.

Funny stuff :P I never got kicked out though. But when I was like 5 I took a game outside the store to show my dad to buy it. The employee came running. He's like "You can't take games outside the store!"
I have never been kicked out of any store but when I am at Game, the UK equivalent of GameStop, I feel the need to tell people about Find-Games.co.uk and GamesTracker.com to prevent them from paying the ridiculous prices at Game. Unfortunately I haven't done that yet but it would call for me getting kicked out I assume.
I know how to conduct myself in society, so I have never been kicked out of anywhere. The only time anything happened at a GameStop was back when they were Funcoland. I would take all the spare money I could get and buy NES games (this was during the 16 bit gen), and they told me I could not pay for a $15 game in quarters (I was 10 or so? ). That is about the extent of my stories.
