| MrT-Tar said: Also, I can't forget the time when a staff member at GAME told another customer that Nintendogs didn't exist and that she must have been thinking of 'Nintendo's Dogz'. I find it hard to believe that anybody at any gaming store would deny the existance of Europe's best selling DS game (12.42m atm). That takes gaming ignorance to a whole new level. |
Ouch. That's pretty bad. How about when our store told us NSMBWii didn't exsist and the biggest Wii holiday game was Left 4 Dead 2? That's pretty igorant, but not as bad as your example.
Maybe we, being gaming addicts/enthusiasts, know far more than the staff, who in turn know far more than Joe/Jill Bloggs? Maybe it just sees like they're bias and/or ignorant because we are all slightly (or massively) bias towards one particular company/console, so when we see someone trying to push something else, we immediately retaliate?
It doesn't explain most of the things in the thread, but since we know pretty much everything about the game we're going to buy, it's obvious that they'll seem stupid.
