Damn those gits, I hate that shop now.

Went into Liverpool to get a broadband adaptor today, the only one they had in stock in Gamestation was 2nd hand. Bought the filthy piece of crap, it was £25 so I wasn't complaining.

Get it home, go to register the codey thing with Blueyonder, turns out the previous owner had already registered the crappy code with them so I gotta take the filthy piece of shi- back tomorrow and get a new one.

I swear, all this online gaming crap really is not worth the effort. It's too expensive and it takes a fu--in age to get it running.

Had to pay £12 out for a filthy Ethernet cable as well. Too expensive and too much of a feckin mission.

ROTFFLMFAO!

That's the funniest thing I've heard all day!

As an ex-GS employee, I can tell you that their trade-in prices can be really pathetic at times!

For example, if you were to try to trade in an old PC game, but an extremely rare one, you could get quite a suprising amount of cash for it.

However, no matter how rare it is, if it doesn't scan on their system, they'll give you 10p for it.

You wont believe the amount of gamers that I had felt I had conned whilst working there!

Both, maybe?

Better than any of your scouse joke attempts.

We who hate them the most, make better jokes.

Heheh, naughty man.

I wanna go to a Gamestation, apparently they have good trade-in prices.

Wouldnt mind trading some of my old PS2 games for a new GC game or two.

Hmm, pity there arent any Gamestations around here.

I - accidentally - conned my local Gamestation a few months ago.

Took in a load of old PC games - didn't get much for them, but more than I should have. When I got home I noticed that two of the CDs was still on my shelf, and I'd given them two empty boxes!

Okay, they weren't giving me a fortune, but it serves them right for not checking the contents, doesn't it?! :-)

Haven't had the guts to go back in there yet!

Online gaming blows donkey-sized chunks.

Oh how I'd love a real new episode in the Phantasy Star series.

Those games, so do own.
