Gamestop shutting down Elite Pro program August 1st

GameStop Reportedly Shutting Down Elite Pro Membership August 1, Renew While You Can




For collectors like myself who from time to time go and grab older games this gonna sting a lil bit, that 20% off all pre-purchased items came in handy, especially for older 360/PS3 gen stuff when I do some collecting.

I still got til November til mine run out, so i'll be going in hard these next few months on the collecting.

i thought digital was the future

How many markets across the country actually let that fly? Most ISP's either don't offer the infrastructure for consumers to download 40GB games reliably, or they do and have data caps.

Digital is the future of gaming, but the average consumer won't be able to make that switch any time soon.
