    While Gamestop sells a lot of dumb stuff. I really enjoy the store. Especially when they are competitive in price with games. I can browse their Funkos, buy a game if I want and chit chat with someone who more than likely also games. Also Gamestop is the only reason I was able to get God Of War Ragnarok Jotnar edition. They'll continue to get my money as long as they are competitive in price.

    The fingerprint sensor on the back is way better than the in-screen one. 99.9% of the time my finger would land right on the sensor as I was pulling my Note 8 out of my pocket. The phone would then be unlocked before I even looked at it. It was also less likely to tell me to try again like the in-screen ones, not to mention you could also still use glass screen protectors.

Not only because the used card market is absolutely insane right now and any running & driving vehicle is being sold for $3000 minimum, but also because a 1996 Ford Focus is not even a car that exists, the Ford Focus was launched in 1998!

    0:50: I think that a chat pad for a console is useful for a game like Final Fantasy XIV, where there isn’t any in-game voice chat and text chat is a big part of the experience. But I’m not sure how many other games on PlayStation would benefit from this (IDK, maybe Elder Scrolls Online or something?)

    Austin is wrong, lots of modern games still get ROM releases. They are pretty cool to own and plus you get the benefit of actually paying to own the game not just the rights to play a game while a companies still in business and lose it when they aren’t (which always happens at some point…). Why are we shitting on archivable and actually owning games? If that’s how you wanna play, go for it, it’s fun! If not, cool. That’s IMO anyways however, you still da bomb Austin

    The last time I was at a GameStop was at the beginning of this year just to spend a gift card that I got for Christmas. Honestly when I was their I almost walked out without buying anything. Since most of the games they sell I don't have the consoles to play them. For example I don't own any of the Xbox models, no PS4, and no PS5. But I did end up getting a mediocre Nintendo Switch game. Also what still baffles me is that they still sell used NDS games and used Wii games despite the fact that they don't sell used PS3 or Xbox 360 games anymore. Another odd thing is that they advertise the fact that they sell Retro games but won't take in any games. Another shitty thing they do is give you a bullshit trade-in value for something. Also don't forget the fact that they throw out a ton of good stuff in the dumpsters when they could in fact still sell them.

      Phones are only carrier locked when they are promotional or on a payment plan. Fully paid phones are either already unlocked or you can request unlock on the spot. Nobody really cares though, few people jump carriers and when they do there's typically free upgrade or a new phone anyway. I always felt like having an unlocked phone but never took advantage of it.

      Payment plan is the problem. If you have to pay monthly to the carrier you pretty much stack there for a long time. If you buy your phone "outside" you can choose the carrier you want and the one who gives you the best price, and switch between them easily if the price goes up or there is a problem with reception or something.

    • @expired56k
      @expired56k 2 роки тому

      @@ShahafNah At least it gives folks a choice given obscene phone prices. Most payment plans don't cost anything and you can pay it off sooner, but yeah, it is certainly an incentive to lock customers in. However service cost has been coming down than up and since most are unlimited, it generally has been good for consumers. I have personally never bothered switching carriers but my work phone is on a different carrier so I can compare the service quality. Just not enough difference or incentive where I live, I am sure everyone's mileage will vary.

      Totally agree! I have two R.A.T 8+ (one limited 30yr anniversary edition). I really like their "feel" which I was very fond of my old skool Logitech G5 which finally died. Shape and customization are nice and it makes a good workstation mouse as well.
