sigh, do we really need to have a reboot of a subseries in an established franchise to launch its own lineup of sequels? I mean obviously Activision already has a plan to make Modern Warfare 2 (2021) and Modern Warfare 3 (2023) but…come on
Wow, Redbox actually works? As in, you put your money in for a game, and get that game out of the vending machine? That shit always seemed PRIME for scams to me. I’m talking people putting a blank disc in and other stuff like that.
The discs themselves have security measures but it’s probably not impossible to fake. I’ve only used Redbox a few times but it seemed fine to me

sheeeeitttt, that Quantum Ranger clip is incredible… this fast-tracks my decision to finally get that game. For a long time I’ve been torn on whether to get it on XB1 or Switch… I may just end up double-dipping on this one. I know the Switch version is usually on sale for the base game.
Just look at the STYLE of those delicious combos. Quantum Ranger deserves his own game, man. I’d get it day 1.

You can legit photo copy the discs and replace em with paper. It only reads the barcode. 
Lol didn’t know it was that simple
Yeah I’ve heard of that shit with photocopied discs before just reading on forums. But thankfully I don’t live in section 8 so I’ve never experienced this in the 8 or so years I’ve been using Redbox. I will say though I have only ever rented a game twice. I use it for movies primarily.
I clicked the heart as soon as I saw Konami

What’s funny is the one time my brother decided to try it, he got two cases filled with paper. I laughed so damn hard.
Definitely think it plagues gaming section more than the movies. I’ve never got a messed up movie but hear comedy when peeps try to get games.
Do you live in a rough neighborhood? I live in a nice (not awesome, but nice) part of my town, but that’s only been recent. I used to live in a place a couple rungs up from the ghetto.
Lmao nah. I don’t think area matters.

GODDAMN.
They were expecting 480 million Euro and are now expecting 20-50 million.
They were banking HARD on that piece of shit. How the hell could they think all that monetization that would go over if the game (as a series) wasn’t THAT popular to begin with?
Ghost Recon is a pretty popular series. It may not be the talk of the town like a CoD but it does do big numbers. The previous game Wildlands was the best selling game of 2017.
What’s funny is Ubisoft’s CEO contributed Breakpoint’s failure to there not being a big enough time gap with the previous game. Fans of the series are use to playing a single game for years on end. Getting a new one after just two years fucked with that. Also the community rejecting the new systems and releasing it in the same year as the Division 2.

Hmm. Didn’t know it was popular. The more you know, I guess.
I just love seeing AAA pubs fail when they try crazy shit.
Re Redbox: when I worked at GameStop we’d get people trading in redbox games daily. Sometimes several times a day. Although games from redbox can be easily spotted due to their security ring sticker; We couldn’t accuse anyone of theft. So we usually just said the game was in too bad of a condition to take or lie about the trade in value.
Some stores I’d fill in at didnt fucking care though and would take them regardless.
I’m sure @sonichuman has some fun redbox trade in stories too.

I remember when I tried to trade in a brand new copy of a game (Star Fox Guard that came bundled with Zero) the GameStop employee straight up told me he couldn’t take on the possibly of it being stolen (nevermind the fact it’s a pack in game and the main game Zero is open).

Yikes. That sucks.
That’s a big big no no in any retail service. That shit can get you in deep trouble. Anywhere from being written up or fired.
Don’t know if this has been posted, but this Ghost Point Recon shit sent me down a tiny rabbit hole and I found Jim Sterling “reviewing” GPRB drunk off his ass. Works for me.
