Chris seems to see the world based on the laws of fiction. When he found out about Catherine and Colin spending time together, he freaked out because he assumed that Colin was "Evil rich love rival".

When you really think about it, Chris is a even less functioning Abed (from before season 3 where he became Meta God)

Oh. . .vandalizing the merchandise, attacking employees with things like mace, being a general nuisance--Basically by doing everything Chris has ever done to get banned from everywhere he is banned from.
 
You know, the new Sonic game just came out a few days ago. This may be the result of him wanting to get his mitts on it and not being able to do it easily.

Yeah, the Gamestop is one of his most ridiculous claims. It is the only one where he actually did something really serious. For fucks sake, he spent a couple nights in jail based on what happened. And it is a much smaller store, where the employees are all going to know each other, and there is going to be a lot more institutional memory for this type of thing. And being smaller, there is no chance he can amble in and noone will notice him if he minds his own business.

I have a little bit of sympathy for him for the other two. He did petty nuisance things, which I am sure annoyed thee employees, but didn't really do them any harm. Not that I am defending his actions, but they are the sort of thing where a "leave and don't come back until you can behave yourself should be enough. If he went to Walmart and acted normal, and they kicked him out, I might well say "cut him some slack".

But the idea that he thinks it is at all plausible that he goes back to GameStop is mindblowing.

I personally have only been witness to one ban during my time there. There was a guy (I'm 99% sure he was an exceptional individual) who literally came into the store everyday and hung out. Every now and then he would buy stuff but he mostly came to just chill and chat with us. Dude made the mistake of doing this during holiday rush and was told by the manager, politely, that they couldn't chat and had to help people. Dude flipped his lid and began to tell people that Best buy and other stores had better deals while harassing the customers. My manager was so livid that he put dude in regional ban.

It really takes a lot to be banned though, the guy I mentioned above got mostly the banhammer due to him constantly bothering people. Majority of the time people are "flagged" in the network. Usually a flagged person is someone who will go to stores and trade over 200+ dollars worth of games for cash and do it again at another store. Or they buy high volumes of items and try to return them, etc.

And that man later became known as Christine Weston Chandler.

He can just buy online, but you know what? I think he wants to protest it by vandalizing the marketing materials again, because it's another Sonic Boom with the blue arms. Would that be why he wants to enter the stores in person?

There are many factors affecting this situation, and at this point, we can only speculate...so here goes.
  • Chris wants to feel more important than he actually is
  • Chris thinks that people care enough about his exceptional campaign, beyond laughing or calling the police
  • Chris wants to loiter the halls of stores again because he is probably getting restless with his current hangouts
  • Fall just arrived and somehow it is affecting his bad neural circuitry
  • Someone told Chris this would be a good idea to validate his female soul and draw attention for donations later on in the month.
Whatever it is, you can rest assured that Chris is already working on doing nothing and shitting himself.

If Chris is still hung up on blue arms he hasn't communicated it in any great degree.

i'm just amazed that the villians in chris's life are stores now.

Well, after all this time, I am sure that Chris has learned he can't win with true and honest people. Chris fails to realize that stores are only as real as the people controlling them, so it's still a highly social problem for Chris.

Can someone explain to me why Chris even wants to go back to Gamestop? He can get almost everything there off the Playstation Network store.

I was going to point out how stupidly expensive most shit is on the PSN store (dunno about US, but it's pretty bad in EU), then I remembered who we're talking about.
 
Chris has no business being anywhere near stores that sell sega or xbox merchandise. If it's true that theyre still pushing blarms sonic I can very well see him absolutely chimping out, especially considering he deluded himself into thinking he put a stop to it.

What is it with tards and wanting to loiter in stores?

Maybe, but I think it's more of an ego thing. Chris gets seriously annoyed at authority preventing him from doing something.
Even if he can get around it, the fact that someone else is the gatekeeper and tells him "no" pisses him off no end
