I wondered what forevercloud3000 was up to these days.

I love it when people win threads in the first reply.

Anyways, slightly on topic but Bayonetta is fucking awesome.

I didn't expect to like it half as much as I do and I am absolutely stocked to go home and play it some more tonight.  I just finished chapter 2 where you beat the final boss by THROWING A CHURCH AT THEM and my friend who is on chapter 5 says it gets even crazier.

they are many reasons to hate microsoft, and their gaming division it's just on of it.
From internet explorer fiasco, OEM monopolistic rules. low quality software and hardware, and lack of values for the company.
and they actually quite proud of saying something that they "bought", like a kid brags about his dad buying him a new car even with his low grades.

There are just as many reasons to hate Sony

 - overpriced hardware (apple tax, sony tax, etc...) especially in their sound equipment which is easily eciplsed by other brands for the same price.
 - refusing to use industry standard mediums (like SD cards) just because they can overcharge you for their memory
 - Sony has bought their way into plenty of business areas (gaming is one of them)
 - rootkit fiasco

the list can go on. These are mega corporations, they both screw up a lot, same with pretty much every other mega company.

I usually just refer to this.

the gamestop I go to mostly all the people that work there have all the next gen systems, though they still have their favorite system, they really tell their consumers the pros and cons of each system. so...thumbs up to them

Just ask to see the manager and tell him about the sony fanboy working there.

People like XOJ are ruining vgchartz. According to him everything microsoft is bad and sony can do no wrong.

If microsoft bought themselves into gaming then sony almost bought themselves OUT of gaming by losing 5-6 billion on the ps3.

Some are making this thread a MS/Sony hate...but its about how unprofessional the employee's behavior was.

If only we can trade Gamestop/EBgames employees, the one near my house is pro 360 lol.

But whats worst than a bias employee is an uninformed bias employee. If working at like a Gamestop at least be informed of the competitors games/products etc. I remember i was in line at my EBgames waiting to ask a question about a PS3 game as the employee was helping a costumer dealing with 360 saying all these info about 360. My turn to ask him a question about PS3...the response.."never heard of it, you're the first to tell me about it". I couldnt care if they're bias but at least know what your rivals have too.

That made me smile. We always forget how the last gen was. It was dominated by the PS2 like never before. MS and Nintendo combined had like 30% of the PS2 sales.

Now we are talking about the PS3 chances to come in second place. Yeah, Sony really screwed up this gen. Before this gen started, Sony must have thought of the current situation as the very worst case.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
