Comment In: Analysis: GameStop Profit Margin On Used Almost 50% [News - 04/28/2009 - 12:39]

I agree that the margins ...

I agree that the margins are absurd. So much so that a few years ago I founded a company dedicated to building an advanced peer-to-peer video game trading site called Mooch. After all, why trade in games for a fraction of the new price when we can just trade our ...

I got so fed up with trade-in values that a few years ago I founded Mooch, LLC and set out to build a really effective peer-to-peer video game trading site. A week ago we launched our free beta at www.mooch.com. If you're tired of getting next to nothing for your ...

If you ask a teenager what his favorite game is and he ...

I am a lifetime gamer, 1up member, and I'm about to launch a peer-to-peer video game trading site. EGM has always been a part of my monthly reading and was part of my launch marketing plan. I will miss it. A sincere Thank You to all those who contributed to ...

Comment In: Disputed Study Claims 'Conclusive Evidence' Of Game/Violence Link [News - 11/04/2008 - 05:57]

I think it's all the ...

I think it's all the bad mattress makers' fault. After all, if you're sleeping on a bad mattress, you don't get a quality night's sleep. So it follows that you are more tired. Studies have revealed that sleep deprivation can lead to extreme irritability, which has unquestionably been linked to ...
