Me: Hi, do you have Ikaruga in for the GameCube today?
GAME: Do we have Arcadia Skies?
Me: No, Ikaruga. For the GameCube.
GAME: Sorry, I can't tell you, we're a bit short on stock at the moment.

Bah.

Well, yes. If a game was rubbish, I'd tell people not to buy it. That way, sales of that particular game would be down forcing developer to re-think putting a cheap cash-in on the shelves.

Anyway, their being paid a flat rate, not a sale related income so what should they care if the game is rubbish or not? In fact, by telling me the game was rubbish he could have saved himself some work.

no offence, but if you ask someone in a shop if something is good or not, do you really expect them to say "err, no, its crap that, if I were you I wouldn't bother, mate"

Wrong, he's lucky I didn't reach over the counter and throttle the inept fool.

God's honest truth, I said that.

I had a load of people around me looking shocked but i was so angry at being misinformed that I thought I'd just let out my rage.

Luckily his supervisor wasn't around or I'd have taken it out on him.

I was angry at being told it was a good game. It was a blatant lie just to get another sale. I haven't been to Game since that epic encounter.
