HeadWillCollapse’s Company of the Week
This week HeadWillCollapse would like to recognise GAME for their dedication to their pre-ordering customers. Congratulations GAME. Your steadfast refusal to sell any copies of GTA 4 to anyone who hadn’t pre-ordered them is commendable.
It’s especially commendable that you insisted on enforcing these rules at your outlet at the Ocean Terminal in Leith, Edinburgh. Other, lesser retailers would be lax in adhering to such stringent laws in such a quiet branch of their store, instead welcoming any potential custom with open arms. However, we here at HWC understand that you must present a united front as a company and if that means refusing to sell to a lowly opportunist like us, then so be it. After all, customers like myself - people who seek to take advantage of circumstances and who, upon spotting a branch of GAME that could scarcely be less popular if it were staffed entirely be Velociraptors and relocated to the Moon, would immediately pounce in an attempt to pick up some overstock - deserve to be punished.
Well done GAME, you’re our number one.

They saw you coming, is my guess. Also, it is my understanding that velociraptors are a bit more civil than average GAME employee.
