I go to Gamestop all the time , with no problems, I have bought a PS3, 360 and Had to return 3 because they stopped working in just a few days, I had no problems they gave me new ones and did not even say anything about there warranty , I bought a PSP, a slim PS2 , and I am guessing over the years 300 plus games. never a problem, and in my area there a 4 gamestops I go to. One thing I can say about the gamestops in my area are they really stay unbiased with the whole PS3 vs 360, I mean they will give there opinion if asked, but they don't bash any console. Everybody knows MS has problems with Red ring of death and E74 error, but MS did a good job of fixing consoles without buying an extended warranty.
Reading some of peoples comments brought something to mind, There was one gamestop I used to go to , who would badger you about pre ordering games, and they would tell people if they did not pre order this game they would not be able to get a hold of a copy for a few weeks due to shortages of games beeing made at first, which is the biggest bunch of BS. So I have had them try at this one store, but I told them to knock if off, or I would take my business elsewhere and they did stop, I don't go to that Gamestop any more because I had moved, but I quess I could see a Dumb Ass employee making this crap up. Some people just really like bashing consoles that are there least favorite, I don't get it, even though I like my PS3 the most, and have had no problems with it compared to my 360, I still really like my 360 also, to me its about the gamming experience, If another console is going to give me great games to , I will buy it. I am not Married to any of them, I do like Sony I have been playing on a PS for 15 plus years , and never had a console break on me, and had plenty of ossum games to play, now I also have a 360 and really enjoy it to. 360 may of had more problems then PS3, but I still do know a person who had a problem with his PS3, after 2 years, It probably would not hurt to buy a warranty on any console you buy, to be on the safe side, anything can happen at any given time. But there is no reasonto make up Bs excuses to bash a product to sale one. I worked in sales for many years, that type of sales approach will not work , and it leaves a very nasty taste in a persons mouth when they leave, and most likly they will not come back to buy anything else. So its not worth it, be straight up with people.
