The "three copies" part makes this seem really fake. Why would a parent buy more than one copy of a game?
And why would they open all three? Or even one?
If it were a single one I could see a kid playing it to see if it's any good, but three? Makes no sense. I know most of these green texts are fake, but anon could have done better.
It's a flimsy argument but the only thing I can think is the kid thought it was a joke and opened all three to make sure they were indeed all the same
A couple of my kin pulled this exact joke on me, funny enough two of the joke games ended up being pretty good.
You thought it's a fishing game. It was Skyrim.
anon is cruel af
Kid is dumb for assuming mother knew what cod was
Mom is dumb for not clarifying?
Did a quick search, that game is available to pretty much every platform. PS2, PS3, PS4, Wii, WiiU, NDS, 360. The buy 2 get 1 free makes more sense now
Anon ahould have kept his copied of sega bass fishing. The most intense game ever produced
Was Anon just being a pedantic dick, or are they profoundly ignorant? Why would they fail to make the obvious assumption that the parent meant Call of Duty? Isn’t helping clueless parents a regular part of the job?
Or am I the ignorant one, and missing the joke entirely?
Anon was being a PoS. Ofc they knew they meant Call of Duty.
Despite the other comments, this has real /thathappened vibes. First of all the OP would have to be a dick, second, why buy 3 copies or have any sort of “buy the same game x3” deal. Nobody does that.
You think someone would do that? Go on the internet and tell lies?
“Everything written on the internet is true.”

The internet was invented by George Washington, the boy who could not tell a lie. That's why it was designed to be lie-proof.
Yeah, as an ex GS employee - GS does not have the profit margins on new games to do a sale like that on new games. Only used games get put on buy two get one sales, and those can be returned.
So this is definitely a /thathappened moment.
Also like... How old is this post? Even when I worked at GS years ago parents knew what CoD was. The first CoD came out in 2003 it is not the kind of obscure that parents would ask about.
The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.
Store had a big stock of that game that nobody wanted to buy, and Anon managed to get rid of three copies from that stock.
CEO mindset right there. Anon is going places
You are the ignorant one, unfortunately. It is a well known fact that GameStop cashiers just want to watch the world burn, and that is exactly what they did to that family Christmas.
They did the little man dirty for the lulz.
It’s funny. The most innocent pranks ever on YouTube happen at GameStop.
LEAVE OR I CALL LAW!
Every time!
Oh well. It happens. It’s just hard for me to imagine ruining a kid’s Christmas on purpose.
Anon was obviously trolling the parent.
Or am I the ignorant one, and missing the joke entirely?
Oof.
I several times explained age ratings to grannies looking to get GTA for their grandsons, and I haven't ever worked at a real game store.
This is so gay, a rainbow blew apart my anus, and I liked it
I want to taste the rainbow
Slurp slurp!
I watched
Why would they open them?
Thought it was a prank and one was going to actually have CoD in it.
I really enjoy fishing games =/
were you the kid in the story?
Yes. We had to get rid of the game because he was playing too much.
Well actually cod is meant to be played by adults only
So, you know, it's a good deed in a way. A very deceiving and lucrative one, but still good 🧐

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
