I know there are a hundred thousand other threads complaining about this same subject, but just in case anybody out there wants to hear yet another story...
This morning Gamestop showed Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 AND Valkyrie Profile at the store near me. So I go in looking for both. The employee is genuinely baffled as to the location of Valkyrie Profile, but I have no problem finding Marvel. I also asked the employee (nicely) to satisfy my morbid curiosity and just show me the hold drawer, and sure enough no PS games in there.
At this point I'm so flabbergaster by Gamestop's online game finder (I have played this scene out at least 20 times in the last 6 months) that at this point I'm pretty numb to the disappointment and leave with a shrug. After all, maybe the system REALLY HASN'T UPDATED as they always say.
Just for fun, tonight I looked up Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 on Gamestop.com and it has ALREADY disappeared from the store where I bought it. Now, forget the beauty of their system updating so fast - that's a story for another day. The point is that clearly the system has updated. Sure enough, there is Valkyrie Profile still showing in the store's inventory.
This really burns me. Really, REALLY burns me. Were it not for the fact that the system only gets screwy with the "Ebay games" it wouldn't bother me. But come on man!
I don't really know what else to do. I'm not really out for revenge and I don't feel like turning a store upside down to prove that a Manager or employee is hiding the game...I guess I just wanted to vent - and to add my story to the list of "proofs" that Gamestop is most probably being dishonest when they say their online system doesn't update very often.
