From the top, let's all wish a happy birthday to esyla. She a cool chick and she lives over at the upper west coast (aka, the only good west coast). Hope the party is swell, and i know i wouldn't have been invited, but I would have shown my ugly mug anyways! I remember when i was 23...in a past life.

Got some caffy here, about to go to work, but I ( Read more... )

I know what you're saying, and I agree to an extent... though I doubt the gaming industry is coming to an end.

That guy at gamestop was a fuckin' liar, first off. People like that spew exaggerated facts to sell as much shit as possible. Though the presell shit is more of management's fault. You're supposed to shove presells down the customers' throats until they can't stand it anymore, because the higher ups make more money off presells. The same shit was going down at TRU; if you didn't sell enough presells, you risked losing your job. It's all nonsense.

shit, presells arn't even that bad, at least i'm guaranteed a fucking copy, I'm talking about those goofy rewards programs.

NO WAY is it coming to an end, but I see one person set down an x box controller as every two kids join up. Comics these days are written for us people that have been reading all these years, so it's more of a challenge to get the brats reading them. Video Games are entirely different.

That guy at gamestop can eat a dick in hell, I was even on his side for the most part. Then he had to try the same shit on me because I "haven't seen the new stuff coming out". What a penis.

Yeah, I forgot to mention the "plans" we had to sell... if management was more anal about anything, it was those damn "warrantees"...

regarding comics, I wouldn't even know where to begin... I have all of one comic...

heh, he got mad when I wouldn't buy that damn discount card from him. "I mean, I can hook you up real cheap with this discount card!" Fuck that, I rarely shop there!

Gamestop...heh. Tell you the truth, I never go in the damn things unless I have to. If I want a game and it's not in Wal-Mart or Target, then I go to Best Buy. Best Buy people can get annoying at times what with all the 50 consecutive "can I help you that"s, but it's better than walking into a Gamestop and having my nigh-on 19 years of gaming experience spat on by some brainless counter-jockey. Excerpt from an actual conversation(note-I am generally loath to ask them a question for this very reason ( ... )

Oh, the great thing about Twilight Princess? It's now delayed... March of 2006 is when it'll be out, at the earliest...
