The Blockbuster I rent from has about 12-15 copies of Assassin's Creed. Did they say they only have so many copies, or is that how many display cases are on the shelf? Because they usually have many more copies than display cases.

The one I go to only stocks up 2-3 games tops, and I guess they don't seem to understand that a lot of people want to play AC, COD4, Halo 3, Mass Effect, and other big games of the year. I can't stand going in there anymore because they hired a bunch of new people who don't know the meaning of the word "fast". I spent 20 minutes in line to check out the other day because they had one person working the register really slow, and then there was another woman who just didn't do **** but stand around and act like she was actually doing something constructive.

Its not that the only have one copy, its just that they put more than one behind one box. I've rented Halo 3 4 days after it came out, and ive seen other popular games too, like Orange Box and Assasson's creed. Its really just up to luck.

Life is becoming very hard for kids now a days.

Blockbuster was sooo much better when I was a kid.

my blockbuster sucks. they had ONE copy of the orange box. and ONE copy of bioshock

what makes up for it though is the employee's high level of incompetence. five of the 360 games i own i "got" from blockbuster. the employees just keep screwing something up, and they have no record of me ever renting those games. hence, i never have to return them to the store. amoung these games was the ob. i rented it the first day it came into the store.....and i still have it. and they've never called me or anything (and its never been charged to my dads credit card, either)

I understand how people feel. I have two blockbusters on the same street and there stock varies. The last time I went to the one they only had two copies of Bioshock and the other one had about seven but they were all gone. Luckily I have the option of going to Hollywood video which is overlooked by many gamers and picked up the last copy. I'm glad I have a choice of three when I want to rent a game.
