One of my nephews is big on video games, Virtual Reality and stuff, so I decided to look for something in that realm for him at GameStop. I had never been to one of these stores before and I was impressed. The choices of electronics and games to buy is really good...You could be a PS4 or Nintendo gamer and find Tons of options !

I couldn't let how rude the bald manager was at checkout. My son and I entered the store with 8 gift cards that my son accumulated over the year. However, we were unsure of the total amount. As we waited in line I could hear how polite the male staff was(bald Caucasian with a clear mask on. I believe he's the manager). He looked up some items for this couple ahead of us with a smile. Called a few stores for them so I had hopes of decent service. When he called on us however the courtesies ended. I asked him politely asked if he would mind checking the balance on the cards and combine them onto one card. He quickly declined both requests by first chuckling and then pointing to the card reader tucked away behind some upsale items on the counter. He also quickly crushed my kids dreams by saying he didn't have anymore of the 1 game he had picked out while I waited in line. No alternatives by maybe doing what he did for the couple previously...looking the game up and letting us know where we might find it. He just sat there with an attitude while I swiped each card. The rudeness that stood out the most was when he questioned why my son had so many gift cards. Those were the 3 things he said to us. Absolutely nothing more. No I can't check your gift cards. No I can't combine your gift cards We don't have any more of that game. I finally asked before leaving if they had ps4's available. He quickly replied No, next please! We actually came here for better service from the Johnston store but providence place location is just as bad. read more

So I happened to be in the neighborhood yesterday and stopped at this Game Stop at the Providence Place Mall. The handsome guy at the counter helped me out by first looking to see if they had Pokemon Silver or Gold in stock. They didn't, but no harm, no foul. They did have a copy of Bioshock Infinite for 18 bucks, though. So that with a copy of Dead Island Riptide for the roommates and I was ready to check out. First problem... my roommate, a guy... was the one checking out, and I was standing behind him. The gent seemed to initially assume my roommate was the big gamer in this pair. A normal interaction for me, but increasingly irritating. I soon turned it around after talking games and problem averted.. The REAL issue is this guy was super pushy with the sales. I don't like sales pitches, but to get out of there I broke down and upgraded to the Game Rewards Pro card. After that is all finally said and done, I go home to Massachusetts to play my new game. Dead Island works fine. Bioshock, however... is an old Red box game. It's unreadable. Needless to say I'm not happy. After getting annoyed with the pushiness of the sales and a minor annoyance of the gender stereotype, this kind of made the entire experience very unpleasant. I'm hoping I can return this to a Game Stop in my area. Hopefully for a working copy. I was going to spend my Sunday gaming... C`set last vie... read more

Gamestop - This is a Red box rental sticker. From a game I bought at Game Stop. Shouldn't have been traded in, nor should it have been sold - Videos & Video Game Rental Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

Once upon a time this Gamestop used to be managed by people who actually gave a shit about their jobs and the products they were peddling. The current store and district manager have no idea what their talking about, who their current clientele are, and how to work in niche retail. Point and case: I should not have to ever, ever tolerate being offered specific games, game consoles, or other products based on my gender. Don't ask me 'if I'm sure' I want to pre-order Halo 4. Don't ask or condescend to me if I'm purchasing products for my boyfriend or father or brother. When I ask you about a product, don't bullshit your way around it and try to upsell me because you think I don't know the facts. Previous management understood that gaming is genderless. Current management does not and it's pretty disgusting having to deal with people's assumptions on my interests based on whether or not there's a pair of tits on my chest. Time to shop on Amazon, I guess. At least they actually reccommend me products based on what I buy and look at. read more

This one is terrible! Always messing up my pre orders. Staff doesn't know how to accept a NO for answer. Just trash all the way around

Gamestop is one of those places that you don't really think about until you really need it. For those of you not familiar, they are essentially the Toys R Us of video games. They have the most popular systems available (new and used/discounted) as well as all the games that you can imagine including computer games. Often times they will hold a midnight release if there is a popular game coming out and people will line up for hours in order to be the first to possess a game (eg World of Warcraft). Anyways, I don't play many video games nowadays but Gamestop offers a service that I find rather convenient. They buy back old stuff including old game consoles, games and apple products. Today I came to sell back my old iphone and since it turned on (yes, they check) I was offered store credit or cash. Of course, store credit would have made the most sense if I planned to buy something in the store as it was almost a $20 difference. But of course, I didn't have anything that I wanted so I took the cash and ran. A very simple process and now I'm off with my cash! read more

If the turds at the Providence Place Game Stop give me that (honey do you even know what a master chief is) look, one more time, I'll throw all their scratched up, used games off the balcony. I'm there all the time!!!! Learn my face. And stop quizzing me. THEN HITTING on me when you realize I know what I'm talking about. I notice that when i go in with guy friends vs. my lady friends they treat the groups TOTALLY different. A couple weeks after Dead space 3 came out i went in to buy the 2nd one for my boyfriend he wanted to play the 3rd one i had bought but never played he 2nd. sooo, the guy at the counter squinted at me and said "you do realize this is the 2nd one right? the new one is number 3" .... .... ....oh my. I explained it wasn't for me and i already played the 3rd one. and then suddenly he treated me like a normal person. and started talking about the game. turns out he had trouble with the (build your own) weapons and never finished it... IF YOU TREAT WOMAN THIS WAY...they will be too shy and embarrassed to try new games. it really is sad what beautiful adventures and exciting quests people miss out on when they have a whole group of people telling them they are not good enough to even try. read more

Haven't been to a GameStop in probably 10 years. Went in to check out the used games, found some awesome prices on good games. It was when I got to the register that Stars started dropping off my rating of this particular GameStop. The cashier was an inappropriate amount of aggressive when I politely turned down the offer to sign up for the rewards card. It was extremely uncomfortable and I will never go back in there, solely because of this sarcastic, pushy, and rude employee. Again, though: great prices on used games. read more

Great selection, friendly staff but only one problem. I called to see if they had a rock and morty figure that I saw an hour ago and I called and asked to put it on hold and they said they didn't have it. Ten minutes after, I went into the store and it was right there! It made me a bit mad that they didn't see it but I know they did try to look for it. Great store still. read more

Thank you to the employee that said they could put a Nintendo Switch on hold for me, only to get there to find it not already sold, but to be told that it wasn't allowed to be put on hold. I'd have rather been told that than get my hopes up. read more
