Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
Walmart is selling through the website or their partners website. The stuff is kept in storage until the item is deemed useless.
Per the article, Microsoft is paying them not to sell any of the physical games and take them off the shelves. I'll bet dollars to donuts that they end up buried in a landfill next to ET.
