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. |

What the hell....I never knew that. I thought they were always seperate entities. What about Babbage's? |

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. |
