Old-school gamer. I started gaming with the Atari 2600. I became an addict with the arcade release of Street Fighter II at my college. The SNES release pushed me into buying that system and a lame arcade stick. I haven't looked back since then. I still consider the 16-bit to be the Golden Age of gaming. The current generation is keeping me pretty happy, especially with the fighting game renaissance that's happening lately. And, yes, I'm old.

What irritates me about Gamestop/Gamecrazy is how even when I just bought a used game the day before, and I want to trade it back to them for a different platform version (same exact game, same original price, just trade back my PS2 version for the Xbox version, or vice-versa etc.) and they won't just swap me versions and call it a day.. No, they want to take it back as tho it was a different game, give me a paltry $2 for the trade in, and then still charge me the same used price as before. That they even think of doing this with a straight face is what I call stupifying flail. Jeez, same exact game, same price, diff. platform, +$18 on top of what I already paid. That is a rip.

Oh, look, it actually has Blast Works, which is more than what I can say of any local store.
