Game Crazy — Local services in Salem

For some reason I was scrolling through the reviews and was reading a bunch of 1 star ratings over not being polite, overly priced, not a big selection, and outrageous story’s that were shortly fact checked by the owner (which I find hilarious!) who in my experience has always been kind and a good guy along with his wife. The store may not have the EXACT game you were looking for but the store has a huge selection of games for almost every system with decent prices that if you were to go on Amazon and purchase would be 3x the price. I also see people complaining about how they only got $2 for a $5.99 game… these people need to make a profit to have a business, that’s why it’s called BUSINESS and if you thought that coming here you were going to get $20 for a game you paid $20 for I pray you don’t start a business. But anyway I love this place, I don’t come in too often as I’m not a constant video game player but when I’m in the mood to get a new game this is the first place I go to for the good prices, nice selection of games, good customer service, and...

Overall this is a good store with decent selection and slightly higher prices than normal. The wall of PS3/PS4/XboxOne/Xbox360 titles is honestly one of the coolest displays I've seen, I really love when stores show off their library like that. Most titles here are in great condition, which partially helps explain why they're about 5-10 dollars more expensive than other stores in Oregon. Apparently this store was broken into and lost some inventory. I hope they're able to regain their stolen games and hopefully bring the prices down a little. The cashier was nice and patient with me as I browsed the store, even offering to buffer some of the games I had already picked while I browsed the store. The only reason I'm knocking a star off is because two of the Xbox games I did find were missing the game discs, which kinda sucked. I hope the store can recover their lost inventory and hopefully show off an even cooler wall of titles...

I've been coming here since I was 18. I'm now 24, I know the owners, they always greet me with a warm smile, and they treat me with respect. Their prices are unbeatable, sometimes the selection is limited, but rarely. Never have I gone in and not found something to take home. Stop giving game stop all the hype, start supporting local businesses, especially game stores, because besides game stop there are so so few, and game crazy provides a relieving sense of nostalgia/variety that'll let you relive the days where you had more options on where to get your games. You'll feel welcome here, and you're bound to find...
