I hope your right,i really do but from a business stand point its not totally impossible. Think about it,if a parent has to buy a game for their kid/kids and they go to a gamestop and ask someone working there what to buy they would probably say mw3 over skyrim. Not everyone is going to get both games,i know i am but i spend money on games like the yankees spend money over paying muscle heads that can hit a ball with a stick lol





#2- Do a lot of parents wander into Gamestop off the street and ask for recommendations about what to buy their children?

#3- Will said Gamestop employees really just recommend a game blindly without asking what kind of games the kid is into? Or recommend 2 M games to a parent shopping for their kids?





Im not really trying to be apart of this but...

#2 Yes, happens ALL THE TIME.

#3 Damn right we did. Its the easiest way to get rid of them. Just recommend Call Of Duty :laugh:

According to the Pre Order Bonus list that I got from GameStop, so far just a physical map as a bonus. But I'm sure they will have a collector's edition.

Be glad I never was at your store, I'd have called to complain about you recommending an M game for my kids. :p

IDK- when my kids ask for games for Christmas, they ask for specific GAMES. When our family wants to buy them games, they ask me "what games do you want them to have?"

I can't imagine being some clueless asshole who has to ask some strangers who don't know anything about the kid in question, what games said kid should be playing. That seems... beyond bad parenting, IMO.



Agreed. I think the problem is Melissa that we are thinking like GOOD parents and actually knowing what our kids play.

The whole thing about the game getting delayed though is silly. No one who actually makes decisions at these companies says to themselves "I wonder what Gamestop employees will recommend to parents." Nor do they care about a genre that is completely different than theirs.

I mean my two favorite game types are RPGs and FPSs, but that isn't everyone. When I want to play an RPG I don't go grab MW3, unless by RPG I mean Rocket Propelled Grenade.... Also the whole thing about what a kid gets for Christmas is silly also, I mean if they don't release the game long enough before Christmas, how can anyone get it?

My imagination is that they will definitely keep this release date unless they would be releasing a broken game.....and in today's gaming where updates can be released within a few days of release (or even on release day) it wouldn't surprise me if the game gets released broken as well. But as long as its been in development I'd imagine it will be fine....

.........................regardless, I plan on picking this up eventually. It sucks being completely broke and having to trade in other games to get new ones....

I'm not exactly having high hopes for Skyrim, Oblivion sucked, though MW3 probably won't be better. MW2 wasn't quite a good game either.

I just started playing Oblivion again, I am going through caves and other locations just looking around right now. I think I am starting to get back into it like I was a couple of years ago when I was always bugging Evol, lol!

Don't worry Evol, I got a guide for any questions I may have! LoL

The strategy guide is soooo handy, especially when you're trying to finish the Thieves Guild final quest. I would've been running around for hours trying to figure out what the fuck to do down there. It was actually Evol who lent me guide :laugh: and I had it for almost a whole year before I finally gave Oblivion a second chance and fell in love with it.
