Buy two games get one free at GameStop

An email was sent out to customers of GameStop notifying them of the game sale that's taking place this weekend.

In the email, the company says if you buy two used games, you'll get one for free.

Finally you get the chance to pick up some of the titles you've been meaning to purchase for a long time but never did.

Consumers are being spoiled this generation aren't we?

Resident Evil's Wesker in Lost Planet 2

Lost Planet 2 is just one of the many highly anticipated games coming out in the near future. You can join up with 3 of your friends and work together to take down enormous Akrid beasts, battle hordes of pirates, compete for the ultimate goal of victory, and even make up some new stories in what we like to call "Resident Evil Mode".

Wait what?! That's right, when you pre-order the upcoming action title, you will receive a Wesker skin, allowing you to defeat those giant alien-bug menaces in a truly epic fashion, and if playing as Wesker isn't already enough, when you pre-order the game from GameStop you will also get Wesker's revolver which is supposed to pack quite a punch.

Now picture yourself taking down a monster the size of a building as Wesker with just a revolver. Does it get anymore awesome then that?!

GameStop Director Sells $60.2 million worth of GameStop stock, Watchers Take Notice

Unloading a vast amount of your own company's stock is never a good sign. Even if said company is doing extraordinarily well, people will automatically conclude something's wrong. Maybe the GameStop executive justed needed some cash, or probably his company is facing a serious downturn and being human, he wanted to lose not one dime, we agree.

According to a report from Barron's via Gamasutra, Leonard Riggio sold 2.3 million shares of GameStop for $60.2 million. The report says this could be a sign of impending bad news for the retailer by drawing comparisons to a previous stock unloading by Riggio, just before a big drop in the company's value.

To be fair, Leonard Riggio still owns 9.1 million shares of GamesStop, so as I stated, the man probably just needed some cash. Still, one has to wonder what's really going on behind close doors when the game retailer's board meet to discuss projections, sales, decline, strategies etc. Could it be GameStop's not doing as grand as the masses thought? We'll have to wait and see.
