General Gaming / a conversation with 2 game stop employee's
« on: February 17, 2008, 03:49:36 AM »
i just want to start this out by saying that i at one time managed a game stop... i was not a giant douche bag however.
me-i need an xbox 360 which one's do you have
gse1- i just sold the last one... we do have ps3's in
me-why would i want that (in a sarcastic but condescending tone)
gse1-its more powerfull than the 360
me-yea but all the games i want are on the xbox... and the only reason i would have to get a ps3 is for metal gear and i dont want to pay 500 bucks just for that game
gse1- there all that price
me- and xbox is 500 dollars... where on what planet?
gse1 no 50
me- no the game price isnt what bothers me its the system price i dont want to pay for one game
gse2- the ps3 is way more powerfull 14x more powerfull and your going to see that all the games are going to start comming out for the ps3.
random customer- plus the online is free
me-i dont play online and the ps3 sucks, thanks any way
now unfortunately i couldn't convey they tone in there voice but these guys were really adamant that the ps3 was the way to go. and in 2-3 years maybe but until then im going to stick with my wii and eventually get a 360. i just hate how these guys think that they are the only people who know any thing about gaming.
the one thing i wanted to point out to them but there line was getting long and i didn't want to hold up other people is the n64 was more powerful than the ps1, the game cube was more powerful than the ps2 and in some respects the xbox. yet none of these systems were the dominant one. specs mean nothing its all about install base.

Nintendo Gaming / wii and the rts
« on: February 09, 2008, 01:57:59 PM »
am i crazy or is this the perfect console for an rts? i love them, im sure most of you do as well, and there few and far between on consoles. i would love to see starcraft 2 or world in conflict or even games that aren't nessesaraly in the rts vein but close like sim city or Caesar 4 or something like that.
any how if there have been topics like this sorry but im new to the fourm so i just thought i would put my 2 cents in and see what people thought.

thats just a dumb argument because free speech and breaking in to my home are 2 different things.
im not saying that they don't have a right to set guidelines but as i said it was kind of a sarcastic joke... and even after reading that i said it was a sarcastic joke you still decided to continue on this line that i don't have my right. you don't want to give me my right but i bet you want to give the detainees that aren't American citizens in gitmo there rights don't you you ultra liberal... go back to your hippie commune... and learn to take a joke dude.
i want to let this rest as it is but you guys keep replying to this thinking that you can interpret the constitution better than i can.
p.s. i wold love to go back on the gold standard but we just don't have 14 trillion dollars worth of gold lying around. but it sure would help.

i have no right to free speech... cause this is a private forum... ok what i said was a bit of a sarcastic joke but what you said was just ignorant. im in America and last time i checked i had the right to free speech any where within the united states. sometimes there are consequences and i understand that. but private or public my right stands.

ahhh we will bounce back. it just takes time no economy stays on top forever. what we need to do is make sure neither mccain, obama, clinton, or huckabee get elected. then convince romney to get back in to the race. he will fix the economy. and even if he cant... the others most surly cant.
