Your shop of choice?

Where do you like to buy your games/consoles/etc and why?

My choice: Game Stop. Have never really had issues, such as supply problems or anything of that sort and almost always has had what I'm looking for.

I always thought EB and Gamestop were exactly the same but with different names.

As of March 2005, EB is owned by Gamestop. Ever since, they've been quietly changing the names and in-store advertising in most EB/EBX/EBKids.

Yes I remember the first time I noticed their websites were exactly the same except for the names was about that time.

I'm voting EB because its the closest thing I got and is pretty much the only place I go for my gaming needs.

I still remember when GameStop used to be called "Funcoland." Before Funco, I used to go to EB all the time. I stop in every now and again...

Usually Game Stop or EB. Rarely do I go to one of the retail chains like Best Buy or Circuit City.
