I have mixed feelings about Resurrected Games. When the Xbox One was released, they sold me one when i couldnt find it anywhere for a reasonable price. Thats a plus. This place is popular with Yu-Gi-Oh players and is one of the few places in town i know of that does tournaments for the game. The store itself feels a little small, wish they had some more store space for tables and such. I play alot of Magic: the Gathering and i have been to alot of stores around town to check them out. They keep their good cards in binders, and others into boxes where you need to search though them if you are looking for something else. They have a decent selection of cards and boosters. The reason i gave it a 3 star was because of this one sketchy moment. While I was browsing though their cards, I saw they were selling a gold bordered City of Traitors for the price of a normal one (Gold bordered cards are not tournament legal and are only used to "proxy" cards in casual games). I informed the person working there that the card was way overpriced due to the fact its not "real". The person told me that a co-worker bought the card for the buy price of a real one, so he had to sell it at the price of a real one to not lose money. They were knowingly trying to sell a fake card for the price of a real one. The store staff could of changed since then, but that experience made me loose trust in the store.

This is my second attempt at supporting a locally owned video game store after giving up on the rude crew at Gamerz Galaxy and I must say that the staff is just as bad at this store. On multiple occasions I have been met with indifference or downright rudeness. I am willing to pay a little more to support locally owned but they price certain items much higher than the worth of the item. Its sad to say but my experience at Gamestop on Anderson has always been pleasant and I have always been met with polite and knowledgeable staff. I have reluctantly made this my home store after trying to support TWO independent game stores in my neighborhood!

I am not from Austin and came into the business hoping to spend over a $100 in Yugioh cards. The overall customer service is the worst I have seen in a long time. I had to wait 2 hours to wait for the owner to show me the cards in the binder because he was playing cards with some other people. So the girl in the front had to help me out and was tossing binders in front of me as if she didnt want to do her job. I was extremely displeased with the over all experience and will not bring my business to this store. I will strongly recommend to people not to waste their time coming to a store where their business will not be valued.

Dont go here for MTG events. Went to FNM last night and it was the worst tournament Ive ever been to. Ill give a short list of examples: the booster draft started 30 minutes late, the owner of the shop "bought" in to play, there were no tables or chairs so we played in the cafeteria of the mini mall, throughout gameplay the owner would continuously get up and go back into the store to ring people up (sometimes for 15+ min), no time limits for rounds, no judges or any rule enforcement, I could go on and on. Essentially, only come here if you enjoy bad customer service, long wait times, and disorganized play.

Not for serious mtg. The owner is usually too busy playing YuGiOh to be of service, the drafts tend to start upwards of an hour late, and the last time I went there they were out of RTR packs so they arbitrarily decided to draft DGM-GTC-DGM after I registered and paid. The basic lands are not separated, so you either bring your own or dig through giant boxes of cards until you scrounge together the lands you need. Theres also no judge on hand, and they do everything you dont want as a player: cross-pod pairings, arbitrary pod sizes, no round timers, and more ridiculousness than I can get into.

Most of the complaints are outdated. The store owner doesnt know how to play Yu-Gi-Oh for one, attitude hasnt been a problem for me, and I have been treated with respect every time i have come to this establishment. This place isnt a card shop. They are a game store who sells card game products, and runs events. They try to not make you wait to pay for the events to make sure they fire but they almost always do. I have not found another store with this kind of selection. I will continue to come here for a long time, making new friends and having fun, and recommend this shop to anyone who asks.

One of my favorite places to hit when Im in Austin and looking to get a game of Magic: The Gathering in. The stores staff is knowledgeable, eager to help and fun with play with! Great prices on singles (probably the best priced in the Austin area), great prices and prize support for draft compared to other stores in the area and plenty besides just MTG to browse in the store, Resurrected Games is a hidden gem that you should take the time to explore.

Rude Staff - Called in from cell phone and when they answered the phone cut out. I asked if I had called Resurrected Games and the lady on the phone said "Thats what I just said". Not getting my business. Lost a customer. Got a bad review. How about you have some tact on the phone or train your employees that technology fails sometimes and phones cut out once in a while. Lots of 1 star reviews here. Youd think theyd wisen up.

The owner plays in a draft tournament instead of helping his single employee handle customers. A large line of customers takes a backseat to his entertainment. This is a very poorly ran business far beyond words can explain. Its almost like his goals are to hustle the kids that come in, rather than running a respectable game store. Dont come here if you want to spend money, or trade anything in.

As a casual fan of the Yu-Gi-Oh TCG, this place has everything I could ever want and need. However, it doesnt just stop at childrens card games. Movies, video games, toys, other geek accessories, you name it, theyve got it. Plus their buy-and-trade policy is second to none; youll always get a fair deal for what youre offering.

Opening hours are at 10am I ended up having a mixup with megabus tickets and was unable to transfer the ticket because they decided to show up at 10:32am This isnt the first time theyve opened very late either. Dont expect this place to stay true to their opening and closing hours.
