Gamestop Stories

[Doobie_wop]

The EB Games stores in Melbourne are very 360 biased for some reason.

- When I came into buy my PS3 at launch with $800 and a heap of PS2 games, the clerk serving me recomened I buy two 360's instead for me and my brother. Told me the PS3 was a waste of money. (Which it may be, but that's for me to decide).

- Guy went in recently to buy Modern Warfare 2 (PS3) and was asking about the headsets. The manager then went on a rant about how PSN is rubbish. The guy looked shocked and awkward.

- I had just bought a 360 and the manager was so happy that I had 'seen the light'. The 360 got an E79 Error 5 days later. I took it back and he seemed annoyed that I was returning it.

- He keeps trying to convince me to trade in my Wii and last week he pretty much pressured me into preordering Splintercell Conviction, I didnt have to buy it but apparently he wanted people to preorder.

I don't like game store's as much anymore, but it's right around my work and so it's the most convenient place. I'm also an EDGE member so I get a discount.
