For sure, prices are too high to the point you can just go to eBay. $250 open and yellowed chrono trigger? Crazy. But! Tons of hardware and it's just fun to be in a shop like this. Huge selection. Used parts. CRT TVs hanging out. You may find what you're looking for and if you want an in person experience, absolutely worth a visit. I'll go back despite the inflated prices. read more

Everything is OVERPRICED! Priced way over Pricecharting. They are also FIRM on eveything and are not friendly. Do yourself a favor and go to RETROHEX COLLEX for better service and prices. read more

The Video Game Plug. This place is every nerd's wildest dream. It's like the game room you have always wanted as a kid. But let's keep this place a secret. I don't want everyone buying the games up. Save this for the GAMER gamers. read more

Service is ok. My kids love coming here because they let you try out the games. Some of there merch is in bad shape. They could definitely use a little tlc, especially the games that are usually quiet dusty (musty & crusty). The employee Adam is really nice and available for any questions. They also modify NES & SNES minis with tons of games for $65. read more

Great selection but they price their items way high, they wanted $30 for a game that GameStop sells for 4.99. I walked out.

Service wasn't the best and i felt everything was way over priced. I understand it's a business but at the same time these games were being over charged for sure. I check other spots instead, the condition of the games aren't worth the prices. Can't satisfy customers ‍ read more

I really like that place because service and a lot of cool things my game was only 45 dollars that's a good deal online it's 150 dollars my game online read more

Staff are very nice So that's where the stars mostly go to. Overall it's a decent sized store with a big selection of common and rarer games. The problem is trying to find something is difficult because they dont organize alphabetically like most retro stores. Called in asking if they had a specific rare game which they did have but it took them a while to find. But they quoted me at $40 more than the average online price. Why would anyone pay more when online sellers(generally charge more) are cheaper. The owner comes across as a used car salesman Went in anyways to see the condition. The owner was gone at the time and only staff were there. They are super nice and ended up buying the item but haggled down to the average price. The shop is in a ghetto area and they charge 1.5 to 3X online sellers so honestly it's a waste of time risking going to a ghetto area to most likely be ripped off for what you're looking for. read more

While the lineup of games was impressive as well as their toys and collectible collection. I was not impressed by the fact that the price is worth 1.25-4x not only what the average online market price is, but also what places within a decent driving distance have it priced as. Also, while they did ask if I had any questions did not follow up with me despite not a lot of people being there. And continue to watch me and other customers like a hawk as if we were gonna steal something. Well, I do understand having to protect your valued investments. You're not exactly making people comfortable in your store. Regardless of that, the prices are just too much to justify even coming here. Perhaps if they reduce the prices by back to market or close to it it would be a decent reason to come out, but if not, that's not it. read more

I don't recommend it they were showing me games they are pretty pricey in bad condition I was gonna buy a copy of a game then when he showed me it failed to work in testing disc was cracked store is very disorganized and overpriced I recommend going to Frank n sons for stuff like this instead shady dudes some games don't have prices they will "call their boss" or make up a price on the spot read more

Buyers BEWARE. Bought a copy of a very expensive ps2 game. Tested this copy and it worked fine on their backwards compatible ps3. The dude then goes on to resurface it after testing and a few days later I try to play it and it doesn't work. Offered me no resolution and told me I'm asked out of my money. Work on your customer service. Careful where you spend your money people. read more

Went here recently and talk about overpriced. Good selection but honestly just look on offerup or ebay because if you drive there then you might as well get it cheaper somewhere else read more

Horrible shop. First time and Never coming back, not only are prices made up at the register but they are sold to high compared to eBay and other game stores. read more

None of their games are in any sort of order, and they have absolutely awful prices that are WELL above market. Stay away unless you want to overpay. read more

Unorganized pretty overpriced checked out other game stores and they have way better pricing

This place is amazing! Sooo many games and systems! We bought some used wii controllers and they even let us test them first on a great crt. The staff knew what they were talking about and were gamers themselves. Very reasonable prices, plenty of street parking. Very glad we stopped in. read more

Very nice people, had issues with my 3ds that I bought from them years ago. They helped fix my sticky button situation free of charge.

The people who work here are awesome. If you're looking for a hard to find gem, a common game that you are craving to play from your nostalgic childhood, or if you are a hardcore collector, this is the place for you. I was looking for a copy of The Wind Waker for GameCube and they delivered. It wasn't in the best condition but the game works beautifully and the price was right. I also came back a few months later to see if they could fix my copy of Guitar Hero Legends for Wii with their little machine and it was PERFECTION. They let me try it after they conditioned the game and it worked great. I took a look at it in the light and it was like brand. New. I asked them by chance if they fixed Joy-Con drift and in fact they do. The gentleman said Leo will be here Monday and fix them for me by Tuesday. Left my number and Tuesday they called to tell me they were fixed. The price was right as well. Go in, shoot the sh*t with them for a bit and maybe you won't have to leave a sh*tty review like these other people who don't understand gamer culture. GG's GameHogs. GG's. read more

Gamehogs - Rock band 4 - Video Game Stores Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The first time I visited this store I was welcomed by George and his staff Leo and Adam. I walked in specifically to buy a copy of Scarface for the PS2 and George immediately gave me what I wanted. I walked in with the intention of buying one game and came out with 4 classics. George gave me a deal I couldn't refuse. I purchased a copy of The Warriors, Splinter Cell, Scarface, and Destroy All Humans. My 6-year-old son also grabbed two packs of Pokémon cards. The second time I visited, Adam greeted me right away and started conversations about my interests in Retro games and as well talked about family values. I mentioned to him I had found an old PSP of mine and didn't know if it worked at all. He inserted a battery he had laying around and charged the PSP for me. Once I knew for sure my PSP was in working condition I bought a charger, new battery, God of War: Chains of Olympus and Max Payne 2 for the PS2. To top it all off, Adam offered me homemade cookies. This place is great and would totally recommend to family and friends. read more

Here are screenshots from what I thought would be a casual, friendly convo on OfferUp. I don't have a lot of money to spend on video games but I love old NES and SNES games. Gamehogs owner said "my wives pussy is collecting dust" and then went out of his/her way to send me an abusive message, on a piece of clothing I was selling. I would not take your kids here unless you like to be told about your mothers pussy. ***Also, according to screenshots, Gamehogs makes $10k+ per week. They don't need your money, support another mom/pop LA shop!!*** read more

I purchased a gameboy from another vendor during the holidays, not knowing about Gamehogs. I needed a game and Gamehogs delivered, they were professional and very welcoming. read more

The go-to for any of my classic game needs! Owner is awesome and very knowledgeable!

They're great with their prices and games, highly recommended The staff is very welcoming and before buying a game, they let test it first before purchasing it. read more

I couldn't believe the professionalism courtesy and just overall terrific vibe of this boutique vintage video game establishment, which not only focuses on retro video games but also a great so peripherals consoles and accessories and and great vintage titles. You can't get anywhere else and the best part about it is, they gave me an awesome deal on this PlayStation move controller go see Adam for smiles read more

Service could definitely be better, everything is overpriced, it's outrageous they're trying to sell a copy of Pokemon Soul Silver for 200 bucks when it doesn't include the manual, or the pokewalker. for context 200-250 is what i've seen the complete game go for. read more

I use to go to a comic shop years ago that was in this same location . The game guy had a small area in the back, I never bought anything but he was super cool. I'm happy to see that he expanded his inventory and took over the whole store, that's awesome . I can't wait to visit this store and see all the great stuff. I've been getting back in retro games , hopefully they can help me build my childhood collection back up again read more

Shoutout to George and Leo made it happen quick and easy and gave me the choice to choose between both I was originally Genna get the pro then I seen the slim but then I was like Na the pro since I already had it just happened to spill juice all over it but I'm back in action appreciate ya! read more

5/5 they have everything there man it was so overwhelming ... dudes are hella patient w you they let you try out the games before hand so nothing goes wrong ... and got a cool deal on a 360 and they're wrestling fans so that was a extra plus lol shoutout to the whole staff thank you and will be coming back from more read more

Amazing service! Very chill staff and open store to check out and really know what you're buying. So many options and great games to buy and be found that a lot of other stores dont have. Would totally come back here got a great deal on a copy of NBA Jam for Super Nintendo. read more

Good place to shop for retro games. Just wish they were closer or that they shipped items.

OVERPRICED!! You wanna get ripped off? Go shop at gamehogs. Do yourself a favor, if you really want a game that's hard to find at a store, go on ebay, or mercari, or even offerup. Just stay away from this place unless you wanna pay 5x the price. He takes advantage of people that want to play old school games, it's sad. read more

Great guys with a ton of game knowledge. Large selection of hard to find older games and systems. Been a loyal customer for many years!!!

Great Service! I went here on 1/6/23. I went to buy a PlayStation 1 and Mortal Kombat Trilogy, the workers are so nice they would help me find the games I am looking for, they had a HUGE selection of PlayStation 1 games, I have never seen that much games ever in my life I love this store so much, they would let me test the console and the games if they work, games are in perfectly good condition, the console was a little dirty but the workers cleaned it for me, they made my console way better in condition, after all the things they did for me the prices were worth it. I would recommend coming here, best video game spot ever, this going to be my spot now. read more

This spot was pretty cool, I enjoyed looking through the games while they set up the wii that I was planning to buy. They let me play the console and games before a purchase to make sure that it was what I expected and had no issues. Customer service was great and they were happy to help me out when I asked them about their prices. They had a decent selection of games and they also had another section for toys and similar. Prices were good, I got a bundle with a Wii, controller and nunchuck, and Wii sports for 90$. Overall I liked this place very much and will come again. read more

Made an accidental purchase for a GBA SP charger that I didn't end up needing (I already had a Japanese charger and thought I needed a USA charger, but turns out they are the same). Yes, my mistake, but what sucks is they wouldn't offer a refund although the purchase was made only a few minutes before trying to return. They only offered store credit. Problem is all their retro games are overpriced and are, for the most part, in poor condition. Everything can be found for WAY cheaper on eBay, which is sad. Too bad, because not many retro game stores left, but places like this are the reason why. Save time and a lot of money, and purchase online. read more

They are SUPER RUDE to people on their offerup messages and say some super offensive stuff (check other 1 star reviews for proof) and who ever usually works there have a super toxic ego about how to handle sellers and low ballers. They are just very unprofessional and probably won't be in business for very long. read more

This is an updated review: Gamehogs once again deserves 100/10 stars. Customer service is on top and so is the quality of the store. They have a huge inventory, so many to choose from. George, Leo, and Adam are top employees. They are very honest when it comes to explaining the video games and when repairing them. They allow you to test the video games before purchase. I would highly recommend for any retro video gamers or fans to visit this place without question. read more

The owner is very sensitive when you call him out on selling games that are overpriced. They will try to offend you personally when they do not have a reason to justify the pricing. read more
