Game Over Videogames: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Love love love. We'll be back
Fantastic experience: Absolutely, love this place. Prices are good, People are nice and real informative on all products. Love it here one of my favorite retro stores!!!
Positive experience: Dylan was so nice and very informative when helping me with my devices ! And definitely made my first experience in the store welcoming. I’ll be back for sure!
Negative experience: My bought a game here and they never explained to us that we couldn’t return anything. We bought it and they didnt tell us about the policy. We asked for a refund and they said we cant return bought games. Here in US, if you buy something new and you dont want it, your able to return it, except this store who sells used games. They didn't give us options.
Fantastic experience: Nice and awesome employees!
Fantastic experience: Very kind people. I’ve come in multiple times for different reasons and have always gotten good help. Highly recommend checking out their store.
Fantastic experience: I want to thank Dillon for her service she went above and beyond to help me out and I’m happy as a kid in the candy store thank you Dillion you are the best kind of human being there is we need more people like you in the world
Fantastic experience: Amazing store with Amazing service. They have such a wide selection with anything you could want. Plus the customer service was fantastic, they were very accommodating for all of our questions. If you're looking for any modern or retro game I STRONGLY recommend this place.
Fantastic experience: This place has a lot of cool stuff. I was amazed at all the retro consoles and games there. Dylan was so helpful and sweet.
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Gameover video games!! They have a great selection of retro games and consoles!! Staff was very knowledgeable and friendly and would recommend to anyone looking to add to their retro collection!! Thanks Gameover
Negative experience: Lady didn’t greet me or say anything. She looks like she had a bad day or something didn’t smile or said anything or give me any suggestions.. not sure I’ll come back to this store . I bought two PS1 controllers from this store I’m not sure she didn’t want say anything because of my race which I’m African American. She was too shy and didn’t look happy at all
Negative experience: Would not recommend if any way shape or form, take your business elsewhere. Went in to sell a bunch of old games and consoles and was told that I could only get store credit because they “didn’t have the cash for trade in’s” without even looking at what I had or determining the value. Not sure what kinda business doesn’t have cash but yet advertises trade in’s for cash online. Seemed more like the person behind the counter didn’t want to spend the time going through everything.
Fantastic experience: I love going here i don't always find the game I'm looking for but they always try and get for me when I asked
Positive experience: Nice store, definitely worth checking in regularly for the stuff people bring in. I've spotted all sorts of interesting obscure consoles for sale here. Even a VIC20 and Colecovision! They also have a little console museum corner that's impressive and fun to see. A cute little location hiding a lot of great stuff.
Fantastic experience: Been coming here since i moved to Arlington from Fort Worth. Pretty solid if ur looking to pick up original or replacement controllers, memory cards and cords. Retro library could use some bangers in the original xbox and gamecube section but they still have a few gems in there worth grabbing. Fixed my original Xbox some months back and haven't had a problem since. Might just pop in there today abt getting this controller fixed
Negative experience: This store I do not recommend because they didn't have time to show me a lot. I came in for a PS4 controller battery they didn't sell one if you sell accessories that what accessories mean. Also they wasn't very accommodating or speak but the next people who came in they did maybe they don't like older black gamers who's cool with every one not playing the race card I'm a consumer trying to fix a controller for my son. I don't recommend this store.
Negative experience: Offers less than the actual value of games and consoles, I sold a console with a couple controllers and games yesterday was given a number then another number which was only a $10 difference mind you it was all below $100 that they offered me but if you like store credit then you should be fine since they add about $40 to the cash amount to come up with a number for store credit, I see how they managed to grow their inventory over the years not much has changed. Always undervalues whatever you bring in to sell.
Positive experience: They got a lot of stuff. The service is great. Enough said
Positive experience: It's kind of expensive, not going to lie, but you can find some good stuff in here. I get a lot of my retro games from ebay but this works too sometimes
Fantastic experience: Great store, fair pricing, helpful staff. Bought a defective Xbox here and fixed it up!
Fantastic experience: Called right away when a Wii U became available because I checked throughout the week. Holds for 24 hours. No gamer basement smell, very organized and well-staffed store. Great customer service, which is lacking by the competition.
Fantastic experience: Love this store. There are tons of old games to see and buy. More locations are being added. Can't wait till they have a closer store to me.
Fantastic experience: Matthew is a beast up there. I would love to have 5 of him under my employ.
Fantastic experience: Game Over has the feel of FuncoLand before they were bought out by Barnes & Noble and became GameStop. I love that they have a tribute to video game hardware history with almost all consoles released in home gaming history, as it is a great nostalgia hit, and I can show my kids what was around during my childhood as compared to what they have available today. This store is a great place if you are a retro game collector, or just want to relive the good old days when arcades were in every mall and home gaming was something you did on a rainy day. I am old enough to have had a Pong console, so it's like they are walking me through my entire life history of gaming!
Positive experience: Good small game store with great customer service and a multitude of games. They also have a clearance bin with more used consoles that may need repair. Great for people who enjoy taking consoles apart and fixing them. Great selection of Wii, Xbox 360, and DS games.
Fantastic experience: Great place to buy and sell old retro games
Negative experience: I regret going in to trade my games. Was offered way too little money for what I brought in. Last time I go to this place.
Fantastic experience: I love coming to this retro Game store. Amazing customer service great knowledge about video games and consoles. All the employees especially Ruben have gone well above and beyond to make me a Happy Costumer. Y'all are awesome
Fantastic experience: Got a NuForce controller for my kids phone and it worked for 5 min. Took it back and the exchange was quick and my son loves the controller. The place also has plenty of retro games from pong all the way to most recent, to everything in-between. Recommend checking out for any video game collection.
Fantastic experience: Great place, friendly staff, solid selection and the prices aren't bad. Good place to buy some game soundtracks too!
Fantastic experience: All kinds of old school games and more I never heard of consoles besides I grew up with and I'm 48 now... So IYKYK
Fantastic experience: I used a free game coupon and it worked well. They have a big selection of games.
Fantastic experience: The place was so great I bought the shirt. Literally. They have a great selection of games for everything from the old Atari systems on up. Their staff is conscientious, as the young lady was unsure about whether a title I had selected would work, and she wouldn't sell it until she tested it herself. Their prices are pretty solid as well. I wish I lived in the area so I could visit more often! Oh, and by the way they have a museum quality exhibit of consoles spanning the history of gaming, which is worth coming in to see even if you aren't looking to buy anything.
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for the old school - they have it! Atari, colecovision, intellivision, and Odessey 2! Few old consoles too!
Positive experience: Visited this location many times over the past few years, usually great selection across many of the console eras along with decent deals. My last visit (April 2023), I noticed quite the pricing issue - primarily with the disc based games they are generally priced at the Complete In Box (CIB) price, even when they are disc only, missing the manual, or not the original box/cover art. I have no issues paying market rate, especially when looking for harder to find games etc. - but there is a big difference in the collecting community when games are not complete but being priced as such.
Positive experience: Love this retro game store! Great prices and an interesting inventory of vintage game systems.
Fantastic experience: Loved everything about this place. If you're looking to purchase anything for your retro or new console, I recommend looking here first! Polite employees, great prices, and I am beyond pleased with the quality. All games worked and have had zero issues with the console. Definitely will be my go to store from now on even though it's quite a drive for me.
Fantastic experience: Great store a variety of vintage video games in store purchase in store sales and most importantly in store gaming
Fantastic experience: Nice place. With lots of choices to choose from. Polite employees that are pretty helpful.
Fantastic experience: After dealing with multiple GameStop stores that kept giving me the same useless answers I decided to give this place a try. I was a little confused at first, but Ruben helped me throughout the whole transaction and got me in and out the store within minutes. Ruben, you the man!
Fantastic experience: Ruben was amazing today. I got a PSP from found it electronics and they wouldn’t allow me to refund right then and there so I got a small portion refund which I’m entirely grateful for ^_^ . Ruben was also nice to speak about anime stuff with . Friendly staff . Thank you .
Fantastic experience: Ren and Dylan were AMAZING. They went above and beyond to make sure my needs were met and then some. Came in town from Houston and I favor this location over the ones back home the new go-to when I’m in town for video games and won’t give it a second thought.
Fantastic experience: Fun place. They have some great finds and are very helpful.
Fantastic experience: Great selection, very clean, & super friendly staff. They do not provide you with a bag so you will need to bring your own. I plan to come back often.
Negative experience: Overpriced and they have been light on inventory each time I visit and customer service is alright each time but give them a visit might have what your looking for.
Fantastic experience: Great selection especially of older consoles and games. Friendly and helpful staff
Fantastic experience: They let me play some old console games on demo while I waited for my phone to get fixed at a store down the street. I Told them I'd give them a good review. Lol
Fantastic experience: Excellent staff and incredible selection. JJ was so helpful and I'll definitely be coming back. Sold my Nintendo 64 I couldn't be more pleased with their offer
Fantastic experience: I talked for over an hour with the staff and spent maybe another looking through their crazy diverse inventory of new and old games (mostly old) and even great tech to let you play many old systems in 1 console. I hear there are people who buy out some of the more valuable old titles like all old pokemon but this is not a shortcoming of the store yet worth noting if you wanted to come in for an old nostalgic title.
Fantastic experience: One of the best retro gaming stores I've ever been to. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I will most definitely go back.
Negative experience: At the Arlington Texas location, they sold me scratched up games, and they were very rude when I went back to get them repaired. They told me that the games were not scratched when they sold them to me, and they essentially called me a liar! I will not ever shop at Game Over again.
Negative experience: I came to sell Kuon (PlayStation 2) Complete-in Box and they said they will give $20 for it. Really? According to the current market price of this game, it should be over $750. Of course, I expected around 75% of that price or something, but $20 is .....nah. I’m pretty sure if they can buy my game then they will put the price tag of $750 or more. Check your game and game system’s current value online such as pricecharting website so you can estimate how much $ you can get (after tax and fee).
Fantastic experience: The cinnamon in the store was very knowledgeable about all school games. Game over is good for O.G. games
Fantastic experience: 10/10 The custamer service was amazing please if your looking for retro video games this place is relly good they also have a good selection of games at a normal price.So by all means if your looking for retro video games come here!
Fantastic experience: Look around really good nostalgic feel. Brought me back to my childhood. Preserve the stores at all cost for out generation (millennials)
Fantastic experience: Helpful, knowledgeable, and patient. Worked with exchanges. Check this store out! Good inventory!
Fantastic experience: Very kind staff, knowledgeable of the products. I purchased a used RetroN there for like 50 bux with a game. This place is a good place to find some retro gaming peripherals like controllers and even gamesharks. I saw some pretty rare items as well.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly atmosphere and worker but this place took me back to my childhood because of all the the old system and games I'll definitely be going back
Fantastic experience: Nice people, was a fun store to look through for retro video games.
Negative experience: They didn't have a big selection of games, were definitely overcharging on some of the products I looked at. I suggest to just go to movie trading company.
Positive experience: Had a lot of games in all generations but they are all just a bunch of the common sports games and nothing more. There were a few exceptions but the selection itself was not good.
Fantastic experience: I love this place is cool to see the older consoles that were our before i was born 2001
Fantastic experience: They have many old consoles like Gameboys ,DS games, And Nintendo 64 games even tough I didn’t find what I was looking for it was okay because they made sure that I knew they actually had some just not now and the workers where every nice and helpful I would really recommend going if you need to find any consoles.
Fantastic experience: Just visited today, and gotta say the amount of activities for a game store is superb. Art wall, collection of ancient consoles, iconic music from more underrated games, and tournament signs. The charm of this store just had me make this review.
Positive experience: The employees were incredibly helpful and fun to talk to. It really is fun to be able to talk video games with them and they seem to truly appreciate the medium. The environment is incredibly relaxed and chill. The only problem that I do have is that the selection IS lacking when it comes to major first party titles (You'll mainly find sports games or licensed games) though they still do have some behind cases. They are the only place I know that have a good amount of dreamcast material so that is a definite plus. All in all I would highly recommend this store if you live in the area, though don't expect to find major games at decent prices.
Fantastic experience: Love this place! Game Over Video Games... talk about memory lane. I swung in there today and picked up an old N64 game. Great selection - no pressure from the staff to hurry up and buy something, and did I mention the selection? They are very reasonably priced - excellent place for hard to find older games, game systems, and those pesky accessories those systems can't live without.
Fantastic experience: Great store with great art and a classic collection of vintage video game consoles and games!
Fantastic experience: Great place to buy games. I used to go to Movie Trading but I found this place to have better pricing. The pricing is actually better here than Amazon in most cases. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell that they are gamers. Selection is pretty good as well. If I want something for an older platform I can usually find it here.
Fantastic experience: They were honest with me. I was asking for a ps2 and they informed me that it could be a little slow at the startup. Most companies would say everything on it is perfect etc. Great place overall and I would highly recommend it.
Fantastic experience: Very knowledgable staff. Fun place to browse with great prices and good place to sell your games. Very honest.
Positive experience: Great retro video game store. Prices for certain consoles can be a little too high.
Positive experience: Had a good experience. This place has plenty of games. Stephanie gave great service. Will be going back.
Positive experience: Bet place to get retro classic games and consoles. New games also plus things you can't get at your local Walmart or Target stores.
Fantastic experience: A real friendly atmosphere, great selection of games and this location even has a small tribute(almost museumish) to all the consoles over the years
Fantastic experience: If your into classics you'll find them here and if you want to host an event they have a small room you can rent as well y'all should check thdm out
Fantastic experience: One Man that knows his stuff...very polite guy..gave in depth description of the exact game i waz buying...gamestop betta watch out!! One Man iz all it took to make me have hope for the Gaming future of .. #Thanxx Obama
Fantastic experience: This place is super cool & has retro everything. Its like reliving my childhood. The staff is awesome & very helpful & knowledgeable to every game platform
Negative experience: I've purchased accessories from this location 4 times, each time they have turned out to be defective, and end up just wasting gas making the trip out there again to return the item. Game selection is also very mediocre with the occasional rare games sitting in the glass cases. Trade in prices are a joke at this location, I took a huge lot of games one time and was offered $45 in cash or $55 in store credit. I ended up taking that same lot to the Game Over Videogames in Houston a week later since I was visiting a friend who praised that location. They offered me 3 times that in cash then what this location did. Shady business tactics with they're trade in program here. Won't ever be returning to this location at all.
Fantastic experience: Cool place to buy alot of vintage games. The staff is always helpful and chill. 10/10 do recomend
Positive experience: First time going here and I loved it they have almost everything such as old video game systems like Nintendo Gameboy, GameCube, PS1, PS2, Xbox etc. Was a bit disappointed because I had picked out a game from a ps2 selection and turns out they didn’t have that game and I’m just like “then why do y’all have it here?” But overall it’s great, definitely will come back and get some more games and they’re cheap too!
Fantastic experience: This place is awesome if you're looking for a trip down video game memory lane. They have all kinds of retro consoles and games and even a gaming room you can rent to host a game party. Pretty awesome if you enjoy the classics!
Positive experience: Nostalgia hit me hard when I entered this store. I love the selections that they have featured, this is similar to Game stop in terms of atmosphere and the variety of games . They have game systems as well with a reasonable price so I definitely plan to return to buy games. I will recommend going here if you want to buy games at a decent price.
Negative experience: I came in with 5 good games to sell and they said they will give $5 for them.Waste of my time.
Negative experience: Spent an hour trying to sell some systems and was offered forty dollars, I declined and got over a hundred more up the street
Fantastic experience: Great selection of older systems and games. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff with a passion for video games!
Fantastic experience: Vary good at helping if you cant find what you need and good price's. And Dan is ready to help eny time. I would come back eny time.
Positive experience: Neat place and really the only store catering to retro games in the area, but I wish their stock was a bit more robust. If you're looking for SNES or N64 stuff, it's a bit bare.
Fantastic experience: Havent went here yet but do you have a power brick for ba xbox one and a micro 3.0 usb cable?
Positive experience: Has a wide variety of games to chose from. If you're into the older game consoles they have those too with the games. They were very helpful and friendly. I will do more business with them.
Fantastic experience: Didn’t have the game we were looking for in stock but the employee recommended us onto funimation for a dubbed anime. They had dragon ball z so I’m hella please since nothing else had it.
Fantastic experience: Employees have always genuinely looked after my best interest, and even the manager didn't try to price gouge me when they easily could have. Great prices, great games, great customer service.
Negative experience: This store needs some lighting! It was more like a store that you sneak in complete with a room in the back! There is no real signage telling you what each section is for. Employees offered to help but it was too dark and too much to take in for a quick visit.
Fantastic experience: This place hits right in the nostalgia. Walked in for the first time today and felt my childhood memories flooding back, from the first time I played Duck Hunt in my cousin's house, the first SNES cartridge I ever held, my hours spend as a teen playing Halo on the old Xbox and endless time spent on my Gameboy chasing after Pokemon. The staff here seems very knowledgeable and friendly, greeting you as soon as you step in. Prices are reasonable and the selection looks very varied and large, encompassing a wide range of eras in gaming. If I ever have the need to play something retro and cool, I now know where to go.
Positive experience: Great selection of games. They also sell used game consoles. They buy and trade games.bring in games you don't play anymore and trade for a new one or get a little cash for it.
Fantastic experience: This is probably the best store i have been in over 15 years. It reminds me of how game stores use to be. The clerk was very frendly, knowledgeable and kinda cute too. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Fantastic experience: This place is amazing and the staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. So many games from my childhood and the prices are fantastic. I definitely recommend this place over GameStop any day for good games.
Fantastic experience: Awesome place for old games and gaming systems staff is very nice and helpful If you're ever in the area and looking for old systems and games this is the place to be
Fantastic experience: Staff is always pleasant and helpful to help you find what you are looking for. They have quite the selection of games from the past few decades
Positive experience: Place is great.. has almost everything you need But you guys have to get rid of that weirdo from the "museum" he made me feel uncomfortable made me leave that room.. Just saying.. Not going back.. creepy ass dude.
Fantastic experience: Very cool retro video game store. Has a little museum in the back. Games prices within market value. The staff were very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. A must visit if you are in or passing theu Texas and you're into video games.
