You're not a real fan
Think you're a hardcore? These extreme gamers will make you question your loyalty and devotion
You don’t hate Gamestop enough
Every hero needs a villain and every fan with any love in their heart also needs a target to hate. For many gamers, the hate-filled ‘ying’ that brings balance to their love-filled ‘yang’ is fueled by their disdain for the soulless corporate machine known as GameStop.
It’s the place where you can sell your old games for a pittance and buy decent used ones for a few dollars less than a new copy. It’s also the best place to go to watch underpaid clerks provide free childcare as busy mall-going parents take advantage of the retailer’s unofficial leave-your-screaming-brats-here-and-forget-about-them policy.

You could join the masses by writing yet another vitriolic forum post about how GameStop ruined your life with a bungled reservation or misinformed employee. But why bother? Instead, take a tour throughGamestopsucks.blogspot.com. It’s your one stop resource for everything you hate about the retailer that sells what you love the most. You may think you hate Gamestop too, but we guarantee you that the site’s main contributers hate it about a bazillion times more than you and they’ve got the posts to prove it.
