EB Games’ social media feed is on fire, and I’m getting a real sense of Deja Vu here…

@EBGamesAus Just do a lottery, you're site clearly isn't hosted or designed to respond to the demand…

Facebook is also looking pretty familiar…
Yeah, really not a good look considering this is EB’s second go round at this.
We’ll update when we hear more.
