Yesterday afternoon, I went to my local strip mall to go to GameStop, only to find that the location they were in was empty. A sign on the door said they moved to the other side of the plaza, so I got back into the car and drove over there. Sure enough, there they were, all unpacked and open for business in a much larger section. I walked in and I was floored - the section is huge... more than twice the size of their old location. Games were stacked up to the ceiling on the tall walls, and the store was filled with brand-new kiosks and signs. What immediately caught my attention was the large touch screen on one of the walls - this kiosk acts as an info center for finding out where certain games are, what's coming out soon, what your Edge card balance is, etc. I was so tempted to go into shopping spree mode, but I held myself back and only bought one game - Fallout 3 GOTY edition for the PC. This game includes the base Fallout 3 as well as all 5 DLC packs, so it was a must-buy for me. Luckily I had some trade-ins to ease the cost, so that wasn't a factor. In all, I don't know if this new store is good or bad for me: it's good that they can serve gamers like myself better, but it's bad because I'm so tempted to buy everything in sight.
I only just installed and started FO3, so I'll let you know how it is. BTW, I named my character after a friend of mine here who loves FO3 - Shawn, aka certifieddata.
