2) EB is overtly biased towards the PS3. I've been to MANY MANY EB games across my state, and have only seen one EB sales person advise the consumer to buy the 360 over the PS3. The amount of bad mouthing about the 360 that goes on in that store is pathetic. I'm not the only person that notices this as well, go to any Aus gaming site and they'll tell you EB games sucks AND that it's bias towards PS3.

 I thought it might just have been me, but I've noticed this too. I don't often go to EBs since they are a complete ripoff, but on the odd occation I go in for a browse, I almost always hear them trying to up sell the PS3 to the clueless customer at the counter. It's usually the same marketing spin that we read here from Sony, but I've heard outright lies from them too, including that there will not be a PS4 because the PS3 is completely upgradable, just like a pc, hence will be cheaper in the long run as you don't need to buy a completely new console...

  As you've said, take both sides with a grain of salt, but after the rubbish I've heard in EBs, they lack any credibility as far as I'm concerned.
