>a kid out there received 3 copies of a fucking fishing game for ChristmasLol this comment thread gets pretty intense.
I still have a copy of Minecraft: XBox One Edition I got for Christmas one year. I have never in my life owned an XBox One and I felt bad for my grandmother who did her best.
Anon contributes to the downfall of GameStop, therefore sinking the memestock he really banked on for his retirement.
He sold 3 unreturnable copies, sounds like he did the store a favor lol
Who opened the games?
The kid desperatly hoping it was a joke.
3 times
The GameStop employee
Who was dog?
Oh my god, bear was dog, how can that be?
Blows my mind how many people remember that shitty clerks cartoon
We’ve been there. I asked for Shadow Warrior as a kid and got Shadow Man. Couldn’t even run the game so all I got was actually a neat box and manual.
I shouldn’t have gotten either game, TBF, but parents didn’t care.
I don’t like old video games, but my partner does, and that’s why I know that Altered Beast is about an undead that turns into a werewolf. That’s love. Putting up with your family’s weird obsessions because you love to hear them care about something.
I think parents who won’t listen to their kids about their interests, even when it’s a financial decision, don’t love their kids enough.
Awise fwum yo gwave!
Jesus, could you get more sanctimonious? Not only didn’t you get the point of the message - which is that they’re both violent games that kids shouldn’t play - but you also think you know anything about parents, or my parents? Please log off, go interact with real people and don’t give any more “advice” to complete online strangers. You don’t know what reading comprehension is, much less love.
Shadow Man is rad tho
I learned that years later. Though I never bothered to play Shadow Warrior, only the remake/reboot.
It took me a minute and reading to the end for me to realise cod is call of duty
If you ask someone for something and use an abbreviation instead of spelling it out, you deserve what you get
That’s why you always say " I want Lee Carvallo’s Putting Challenge" not Bonestorm.
Children dude
Yes, those children learn a valuable lesson for life!
Kids make this mistake once. From now on, every list is going to be annotated with footnotes and shit lol
Of couse not, if I was the parent I’d be furious for having my child Christmast ruined by this asshole.
Oooor the kid could have told their parents they want “Call of Duty”. Not that hard
Yes because it’s totally necessary to spell it “Call of Duty” to a Gamestop employee.
You know, C.O.D., that little unknown indie game that totally nobody ever heard of.
This is clearly fake but if it wasn’t that would legitimatelly warrant a warning to the employee for misconduct.
Buddy, I can guarantee you there are GameStop employees who don’t know that “cod” means “Call of Duty”. Sucks for the parent, but a good lesson for the kid.
I hope you’ll never inexplicably turn into a kid for your own sake.
Jokes on you, I used to be a kid
Used too, sounds like you still are.
My mother probably would have done something similar if I had asked for “cod” for christmas. You really do have to be specific with people that wouldn’t know better.
Gamestop employee could have done better, but honestly with how shit that company is, I would have done the same.
