Make it a refund to however it was paid for (cash refund, credit card refund ect) Locking up the money in the form of store credit, is just another way to control the profit.
Think about it, if your getting a full refund by way of store credit... That whole $60 has to be used at gamestop, if you were to trade back to them you would get roughly $30, but $30 cash to use anywhere... So if you decide on a $60 store credit refund, you HAVE to spend that money with them again at some point. Meanwhile, they will just resell the game as New (opened) for the same $55-$60, and don't have to worry and shelling out $30+ cash refunds on new releases, and essentially get to keep more profit.
Personally, I've said it countless times. F THIS GREEDY COMPANY! Buy your games somewhere else (unless there is gamestop exclusive content) play them for a month (sometimes longer depending on the popularity of the game) then, resale it on eBay.
I do this with ALL my new releases and after I'm done with the game, i usually don't pay more than $20 for physical new releases, after shipping and eBay fees. $40+ back in my pocket that i can spend ANYWHERE... Beats gamestops $60, 48 hour (2 day) store credit, on select games huh?!
If it is Gronkowski... This really wouldn't be a "huge acquisition" He's another Mojo Rowley... Plan and simple.
Anybody see the current gimmick WWE is working on for Mojo... They (WWE) don't know what to do with at least half their talent... What makes anybody feel different about some washed up football player?!
uhhh i know, how about the "hype bros V2" hahahahaha, you really see how far down the crapper WWE has become with shit like that... Mark my words, it will happen.
As for who Vince will announce tonight? Not sure... Drew Galloway (mcintyre) would be a good choice, if being announced by a heel Vince, he was Vinces choosen one a while back, left, made a name for himself, came back and is being pushed. But, Drew is supposedly going to be feuding with seth for the universal championship, seeing on how AJ went to Raw last week, they need a few good main eventer on smackdown... and they have been pushing Drew, plans can change.
And please not Roman... Congrats to the guy on his fight with cancer, but that doesn't change the fact, he's a shitty wrestler, and i hate all the band wagon jumpers, that cheer him now, because he had cancer... This is wrestling, cheer him for his talent... Which he has none (driveby, spear, superman punch for the win... Give me a break)
i remember reading or watching somewhere, when Vince said "they don't make talent, they make superstars" or something similar. Basically, he doesn't like using gimmicks from other promotions. If he signs a team or an individual, he wants control over their name and gimmick... Just in case the talent decide on leaving WWE. Reason why Cody can't use his last name outside of WWE (even though its HIS legitimate last name) he signed it away to Vince.
There is an exception to this, such as AJ Styles, Adam Cole, Eric Young, Bobby Roode, Shinsake Nakamura, Brock Lesnar, Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows ect. This is because, those names were already established and largely known before making it to WWE.
Aside from names... WWE and this PG era has to stop. Bring back the bra & pantie matches, blood, and chair shots to the head. =D
Also, i didn't like Ciampa in D.I.Y, but as a singles, heel... Its a different story. Can't wait for him to heal, whatever brand he's on... Put another "goldie" around his waist and...
No one will survive!... YEAH! There's no escape now, no one will survive.
I was so hyped about this (because its SW) as soon as i seen the trailer... I was deflated. And for a game thats coming out this year... That trailer (all be it a trailer) was scary.
Oh well, respawn hit a surprise homerun with Apex (even though battle royales suck IMO) i doubt they will have the same luck with this SW game... But, hey only time will tell.
Regardless of the ending of CM... She isn't and will never replace my captain. I'd vote hawkeye before her lol. That being said, i did see CM, it wasn't worth my money, and Disney can buy all the tickets they want to make it a billion dollar movie... It still doesn't change the fact she (brie larson) is a shitty actress, in an even worst movie... SHES NOT MY CAPTAIN!
@dvdjedi: Honestly, i would have for $9.99-$14.99, maybe $20 if i was really wowed by the enhancements/improvements... But, lets be honest, Would you buy it? If you already had the game and all DLC on console, Would you buy it, for $30? If you are, then your the type of gamer their making THIS re-re-remaster for.
@phoenix1289: Outstanding deal for pc players, but the console players have to suck on a lemon. Should be a free update to all that own the game and DLCs already, regardless of platform. Oh well.
@spectrexr1: They wouldn't be able to make that work. To be fair, if you buy a game NEW it's $59.99, if you were to take the game back to them and resale it to them (usually the first week or month of release) You'll get typically $30 (half) then, as you said, its places back on the shelf for $55. Its totally sucks they cut you by half, right out the gate, but WE ALL have to understand, that they have employees to pay, leases on buildings, lights ect. So if they were to give us more, they would be even further in debt then $650M+ and in past years, it hasn't been better for them. Regardless thats a "them" problem, not ours.
They've expanded so much over the years, they can't afford to keep up with the number of stores and employees they have. Now with their business model failing year after year, and the rise of the unfortunate (IMO) "digital era" the first step should be store closures and employee layoffs. It would cut expenses significantly, especially if they trimmed down to a mere fraction of their current, open stores... It would help keep their head above water for a while longer, but eventually (like the titanic) their going to sink.
Personally, they have ripped off and lied to you and me for years... F them. Do what i do... Any console game thats a must have, that you just can't wait for a sale, and have to have it on release... Buy it from a retailer (NOT gamestop) at their "midnight launch" (if whoever is having one) or just find a retailer that offers release date delivery (sometimes its even free) try the game anywhere from a week to a month (depending on the popularity of the game) then, resale it on ebay. I can normally buy a game for $59.99, play it for a month, then resale on ebay for $40-$50 shipped (including fees) again, the game matters... CoD, battlefield (usually) any new rockstar games ect. Best resale values... poorly reviewed, shit games (like fallout 76 imo) its better to go to gamestop lol.
No need to mention pc games... Those gamers have the best end of the stick on nearly everything lol.
