Very clean and modern atmosphere. Browsing for games is very easy. Wait time isn't more than 10 minutes. The associates there are very passionate about video games and you can tell by their excitement when talking about games.
The most annoying part of EVERY experience is the persistent push for buyers to pre-order unwanted games or start a membership or subscription to their magazine. Please stop. I only want what I came for. It's why I rather go to other stores to pick up games so I'm not pushed to buy things I don't want.

Which GameStop location you choose greatly affects the service you receive. We find that the staff in the Ocean County Mall store are always helpful, friendly, and will give advice or answer any questions.
Previously owned game systems, accessories or games are usually a good buy. They are also guaranteed.
When buying a game system or a game, I would highly recommend the $2 or $3 protection plan. It is well worth it, as my 12 year old son can be a little rough with his electronics. With the protection plan they will exchange the game at no cost if it becomes scratched or cracks or is defective. The $2 or $3 is a great investment and much cheaper than having to buy another copy of the game for $50 or $60 bucks. The yearly power up membership is also a good investment. For less than twenty bucks a year, you receive a discount on all purchases, and a copy of the gamer Insider magazine once a month. It pays for itself many times over.
My only gripe is with the game buyback program. It is ridiculous that you are offered$2 for a game you paid $60 for just a few months ago. Take the time to check their website, there are often promotions offered where high demand games are worth more to trade in.
Every single staff member at the Ocean County Mall location is amazing.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existencial catchphrase " Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Rick and Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

JESUS CHRIST IS THIS PLACE AMAZING. I WALKED IN BLASTING SOME NICKELBACK ON MY 1988 SONY BOOMBOX (OF COURSE IT WAS MY FAVOURITE SONG BY THEM, "NEXT CONTESTANT") AND ONE OF THE WORKERS THERE STARTED JAMMIN ALONG WITH ME. WE BONDED OVER THE GREATNESS OF THE BEST METAL BAND OF ALL TIME, NICKELBACK, AND STARTED ASSERTING OUR MASCULINITY ACROSS THE STORE TOGETHER. WHILE BANGING OUR CHESTS, I BOUGHT 8 FORTNITE DLCS AND THE WORKER SAID TO ME "BEST GAME EVER AM I RIGHT?" AND I REPLIED WITH "YES IT IS" WHILE SHOTGUNNING TWO BUD LIGHTS AT THE SAME TIME. BEST STORE EVER. TOTALLY COMING BACK SOMETIME. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NICKELBACK CONCERT NEXT WEDNESDAY RIGHT AFTER FINISHING MY JOB AT THE LIQUOR STORE

As an anti-vaxxer, vegan, pro choice, non-binary mother (xor/xer/xey), I must say this place is hands down the best and finest establishment to go and get a fresh slice of pizza in the city. Not only do they have the hottest and freshest slices with only the finest ingredients imported directly from the motherland, but the employees there are all a bunch a hunkcicles. Pizza for the stomach, cuties for the eyes is what I always say (LOL!).Sometimes when the harsh reality of the world is crushing down on my small and supple non-gendered chest I just go in here and breath in the fresh oregano, the mozzarella, and the marinara sauce, and I know everything will be okay. I'll go in the bathroom and cry for about three hours while I listen to the My Little Pony soundtrack and browse the interwebz for Flat Earth Theories. After thoroughly clogging the toilet I'll order about 5 fresh pizza pies and chow down. What a delightful experience for every single trip. Highly recommend.
