You people remember that Song of the Deep is the game Published by Gamestop, right? GameTrust IS Gamestop. i'm not surprised that even Insomniac managed to squeeze out a little brown water-turd under their thumb.
i know, i'm probably placing too much emphasis on Gamestop's role here, but after yesterday's experience, i'd like to reaffirm my position of "Screw Gamestop."
I think Gamestop is awesome.
i used to be somewhere between "kinda on their side" and "neutral". most annoyingly, i've always been more informed in every way than any gamestop employee i've ever encountered, including things about the software availability of consoles i had never, and would never, own.
and what has me currently annoyed is that a friend of mine recently gave me his 3ds, but i needed a charger and a stylus. i told her which DS i owned, even showed her, and told her i was looking for official nintendo gear if possible. she provided me with a stylus kit that was official, but was for the XL, which the stylus didn't fit. the charger i didn't notice, assuming she was on point, but when i actually got it open, only then did i notice that i was their gamestop brand, which barely fit, and was of poor quality, when i know that they have an official nintendo one for the same price.
they are Pro-GameStop, not Pro-Gamer/consumer.
obviously, this can change based on a number of factors, but this culture is handed down from on high.
