Ryan what is the logic behind the sealed glass shelves forcing people to get a cashier just to get the game?

Whats the point Music cds dont have that kind of barrier around them?

I had to do that to get GT4 and a PS2 slim recently.

There are two points, actually.

1. Videogames are managed totally by respective vendors (Sony, Nintendo, etc.). The vendors want the games locked up, so they are locked up.

2. Videogames are very easy to steal. Someone who's good can slice open the case and slip out the disc in less than five seconds, and the disc isn't caught by security devices, as those are in the case itself.

In my store, music CDs are in indivual locked cases that need to be opened with a key. DVDs are left wide-open and unprotected, and it's no surprise that DVD theft is a rampant problem. I wish they were locked up or in cases.
