There are many story's for me but i have 2 that stick out

Back around Nov 07 wen the DS3 came out in JAP and it was said that it would come out in NA in Q1/Q2 08 i was in a gamestop and ask one of the workers if they knew wen exactly it would come out he said never they got suied and 2 other workers then agreed with him they said there is no chance ps3 well get rumble this gen

I was like didn't u hear that they paid everything off and it was announced at TGS that DS3 was out in JAP allready and comming to NA sometime next year they all said no so left

A couple of weeks later i went to a game store called game champ it's independently owned by some asian guy and i couldn't believe it they had a DS3 even a white one so i bought one a black one it was on the same day that the uncharted demo came out so i got to play the demo with the DS3 it even rumbled for the demo i was so happy cause i was going to get to play the full game with a DS3

Anyway i decided to go back to the same GS and show those workers off telling me there will never be a DS3 wats wrong with them wen i got there i whiped out my DS3 and said told ya i just bought this from a store called game champ the guy who ownes it brought some from JAP and said they will be comming april 08 to NA and instead of agreeing with me he like no that's just a launch model wen ps3 launched it had rumble then sony took it out so i just agreed and left as there was no point in wasting my time with him

The other story is just recently a GS worker said his manager told him that the 160g ps3 bundle has B/C i didn't want to tell him the truth cause ps3 needs all sales it can get now

Well once, a Gamestop employee told me that Haze was gonna be out for 360 as well..



^_^

Well as stupid as this sounds , a blockbuster employee told the J man over the phone that there was no such thing as a NBA game. The J man and her were argueing for 2 minutes until she says "oo wait we have NFL". The J man said "stfu bitch" and hung up the phone.



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!!!

Some female store clerk at Gamestop once told me that the Wii didn't come with a Nuchuck. I'll assume she was new.



Pixel Art can be fun.

fsumoket.. I can't spell today, gave me the tag and I got lazy so I wrote his name as F man.  I thought the J man part would have been funny.

I went there a while ago looking for an HDMI cord for my PS3 and no one in the electronics department had any idea what that was. I explained what it was and they tried to sell me some shitty HD cables. That was more their stupidity than anything.

Oh another once at wal mart I was looking for Motorstorm 2 opening day and 1 wal mart employee told me it wouldn't be out for a few months, and the other one working there said he had no idea a Motorstorm 2 was coming out. They had it at EB games.

so many


just last week i had an employee try to convince me to sell my wii since noone plays it and buy a 40 gig model ps3 b/c it has some pretty great exclusives like Bioshock and has full BC for that model type....it was hard not to laugh when i brouth up a copy of bioshock for teh 360 to buy it.....his face was priceless and he actually said...huh when did we get that in i didnt think it came out on teh 360!



then last month i asked if they knew when left 4 dead would be in (still trying to get my wife to get it for me for Christmas) and she said it would still be a few weeks but if i wanted to i could pre order the ps3 version and receive this poster hting they had

but the best one was when wii music first came out, i stopped by the gamestop by my office b/c i had a buy 2 get one free coupoon ,

the guy behind teh desk who claimed to own a wii, tried to convice me that i should get a copy of wii music b/c its was better control then GH or rockband.......i had to keep my jax fro hitting the floor

i asked him if h had ever even seen wii music....he said he owned it and loved getting combo strings.....f-ing combo strings!



but ehh i still got 6 games that day for 60 bucks so yeah me!



 

i had a blockbuster employee try to get me to purchase the limited edition Lost Odyssey from them because it had all 4 disks and the normal version only had 1 disk.
