So much for this thread. Another one ruined.

Exactly. You can't argue against "the truth is the truth", so you have to attack me personally. Don't worry. Your comments won't upset me unless they are true.

You must be seething, then.

As for this conversation? Inazuma, you that realize argument from revelation and a priori reasoning is what religion is based on?

This thread is a 111 page bitch-fest.

I'd say it was ruined from the get-go.

I just tried to play my copy of Raiden IV that I (stupidly) bought from Gamestop. Didn't work, I checked the disc and it's smudged and scratched to hell. Tried to clean it with rubbing alcohol but the thing is just a wreck. Unfortunately I didn't keep my receipt so I'm out 20 bucks. I know it's my own fault for not keeping the receipt, but christ, you'd think the incompetent pricks over there would at least bother to check out and test the games. When will I learn to stop going there?

Not sure if the register shows a customers history with a GS Rewards card, does anyone know?

Maybe the customer history or at least the GS priced Barcode on the case which has a sticker placement date will help to get a refund exchange? Try Plastic Polish on the scratched disc, I posted a disc polishing Guide in the Guides section.

Inzuama is a Weeaboo.
Also, I like JRPGS and probably like 2 Anime shows but you go waaaaaaay too overboard.
Also how do i add my own GIFs? I have like 50 of them and want to post one.
Back on Topic, EB Games is decent for finding some PS2 games because none are over 5.00 like i got GT4 for 3.00 there same with KOF 2000+2001 for 5.00 and Dragon Quest VIII for 5.00, its great that they dont care about the older generation.
