If you want to be relavant, get Batman: Arkham Asylum.
But be warned, I won't be reading the review, and I wouldn't be surprised if anyone else did either (bad first impression, plus your first blog post is horrific).
" Bitching about stickers or small pictures of the store franchise on a case for a game only applies to stupid shit like this scenario: Son: "Hey dad! I'm super glad you came to visit me at my house here" Father: "I sure am, and you know what son? I would like to take a look at your game collection!" Son: "Neat-o dad! Here I have the new batman game! Its really swell!" Father: "Ah yes, Batman. You know when I was your age I wa....WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS!!?!?!" Son: "What's wrong pop?" Father: "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT ON YOUR CASE FOR THIS BATMAN GAME THAT DOESN'T EFFECT GAME PLAY WHAT SO EVER?!?!?!" Son: "But dad I'm sor.." Father: "I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU EVER AGAIN! AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT COMING TO VISIT US FOR CHRISTMAS! YOU'RE SEVERED FROM OUR FAMILY! YOU'RE NOT MY SON!" "
Wait, was this supposed to be funny? Because if so... it wasn't. "
Key words "stupid shit like this". "
I still think you were trying hard to be funny. Too hard. And it failed miserably.

" Even worse is when you ask them if they have any new copies of a certain game and they say yea we have 1 last copy and they take a open box with a plastic bagged wrapped disc and pretend thats its never been F*CKING OPENED!!!! I hate when they pull that sh*t, you opened it on me its used I don't care that it never was played its F*CKING USED!!!! And for those who think this isn't a big deal, last time this happened to me there was a smudge on the disk!!! When buying new there shouldn't be any chance of a smudge or a scratch... No matter how tiny it is. New should be not opened, still have new fresh smell, and flawless disc. I shouldn't have to buff out a smudge. "
used (adj) - 1. previously used or owned; secondhand 2. showing wear or being worn out 3. employeed for a purpose; utilized
The definition of used from dictionary.com doesn't really make it sound like transferring a game from the case to a sleeve makes it used. Sure, if the game had a smudge, then you could have demanded to have a "shopworn discount" be applied to the disc, but you didn't. It was probably nothing more than a fingerprint on the bottom of a disc, which happens pretty damn easily. "
choffy21 most likely a Gamestop employee with a smart ass answer like that. Bottom line there is no reason to open up a copy of a game just because they want to put the case on display!!!! And lets face it when the employee took it out of that case who's to say that employee never put it in a 360 to give it a try??? If you want to defend Gamestop's actions on this particular complaint I have thats just seriously F*CKED UP!!! Oh and also I'm glad you know how to look up things in a dictionary =P "
GameStop doesn't deserve to advertise the product they're selling on the floor for customers to see? If you don't want to buy a potentially gutted game, then go to WalMart or Best Buy. I don't really care what the cover or disc looks like as long as it works (unless it's that generic case crap). Oh, and you can say fuck here. "
Its nice that you have sooooo much passion to stick up for gamestop. Oh and who said this was the only way to display a game?? FUCK FUCK FUCK =P "
It's not the only way to display a game, but when all they have are copies of the game, they're going to put them out to display. Best Buy does the exact same thing, except they're locked inside these boxes. WalMart has display cases that are locked. GameStop has shelves. If they throw a case out with the game in it in a retail store, it'll get stolen in a heart beat.
