Typically synonymous with gamers, this term is used to describe the general vibe one gets when they walk into a Gamestop chain, the question of, 'what's that smell,' or 'was that gum?'. When used to describe people, it depicts a disheveled, pale character, who is awkward in most social settings.

Get the Gamestopped mug.The act of going to gamestop and buying(renting) a used game and returning it within 7 days for a full refund.
I bought Halo Reach with the intent of doing a gamestop rental. I wasn't able to finish it, but it was the last day to return it for a refund. So I returned it. Went to a different gamestop and "rented" another copy. Beat it the next day and returned that copy for a full refund.

Going to GameStop with the intention of simply buying a game and leaving without being stopped, harrassed, threatened, and asked a bunch of questions, is about as realistic as going to an airport wearing a turban with a beard with the intention of getting on a plane without being stopped, harrassed, threatened, and asked a bunch of questions.
