I was quite suprised actually. In a email from a certain 'GAME's company, I found these words:

'We finished off our Twelve Days of Christmas promotion this week, by naming the editorial team's Christmas Gift of the Year - which we awarded to GameCube. From releases like The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Metroid Prime to newer stuff like Viewtiful Joe and Mario Kart Double Dash, Nintendo's latest has evolved into the strongest machine on the market. We put together a bundle containing only quality products approved by the team so well done if you nabbed one of those on Monday - if not there's still plenty of options for grabbing Nintendo's little wonder.'

So there, they do like the Cube (at least on the net), despite the fanboy workers in their shops.

That'll learn them indeed to slate it...

When I'm working, I like all the consoles.

I'm open minded and will try any game/console before slagging it off.

I still prefer the GameCube, but it wont stop me saying positive things about the Playstation 2 for example.

Seems funny that only 50p is made per console sold mind...

I prefer my GC to my PS2.
Does this make me a fanboy?

I dunno. And really don't care.
La la la.

In the original post they are trying to sell the GC. Hence why they are being all nice towards it, to influence buyers.

They're ripping you off especially if your the one that made the sell (I know it sounds as if you are a saleman, which in a way you are) because £0.50 isn't even 1%, it would only be 10% if the console cost £5.00 but it doesn't so that is really a crap deal they have going with the employees.
