You owned nothing but you loved it. What changed?

Blockbuster had the option to buy instead of rent you dumb fucking digital zoomer

That option still exists now

renting is great when it's an option, but not when it's THE option.
Renting physical things is also way different than renting digital things, in the same way that the concept of physical property is different than that of intellectual property. Information isn't scarce in the way physical things are so it feels a lot more arbitrary.

i used to steal movies and games from blockbuster.

And i pirate and do credit card fraud for my games nowadays.

You miss being a child. That's it

>You owned nothing but you loved it
I could make an educated decision to buy or not buy my own copy.
Gamepass just offers you shit on the expectation that you won't just buy it outright, nullifying the need for the gamepass.
Simple as.

With these places being in decline, has the closure of stores like this affected our health? I mean, imagine a bunch of snotty booger encrusted kids running up and down the aisle touching every box and and every rental.

Blockbuster was shit and died off for a reason.

OP outed himself as a child who shouldn't be here, lol. Get a load of this retard. You don't even know what Blockbuster was, only on the internet.

I would go to the blockbuster with a pocket knife and break the yellow locking mechanism then take out the games. You remember those CD cases you would keep in your car? Yeah I had all the PS2, Xbox and GameCube games you could ever need absolutely filled to the brim

user's brain was broken by one post. Any Forums might be a bit too much for you, bud.

As opposed to 10$ a month?

Kek’d

Because if I liked it I kept it and if I didn’t like it I’d give it back, thus preventing me from seeing it again.

Always thought it was weird my town had a blockbuster and Movie Gallery right across the street from each other, but they always stocked different games so it was a win for me I guess.

>credit card fraud
how do you do it, user? I've been thinking of trying to get retro games off of Amazon for free

But you can do that now?

Why did they use porn star james deen for this ad?

It was good being able to rent a game for a while to try it out.
