Gamestop and the Recession Blues

Posted by Adam Johnson Jul 28, 2009













During these tough economic times it's really hard to plunk down fifty or sixty clams for a new game. I mean, for that kind that kind of money you could get yourself a full skid of tomato soup or a really nice blanket.


This may be surprising, but the stingy misers over at Gamestop (aka EB Games) have realized that when you don't have money to give to them, they don't have money to give to their CEOs and stockholders. This would explain their motive to drop the price on a stack of generally well-reviewed titles, spanning all platforms, most selling to sweet tune of $20 (for a "new" copy, even cheaper for used).

I cherry picked the lot for you, and here is what I found...
