The thing that bugs me in life, it's my eternal dilemma. I go into game shops, no matter which it is, GAME, EB, Game Station, Castle Games. I get "Can I help you?". Fact is if I needed help, I'd ask for it. I'm one of the confident gamers, I go in a shop either looking for a bargain or knowing what I want. These shop assistants think they know everything and the customers know nothing.

Advice to any shop assistants who work in games shops. Please don't come up to me, because next time I'm going to slap your face with the nearest joypad.

Talking of which, most of these people who work in game shops know nothing.

Have you lot had any experiences? I can you you a few.

Exactly.

They have to assume you know nothing.

A waiter does not ignore new customers, simply because they think they know the menu off by heart......

When I go into a shop I either am going in to look at a particular item, or to look at recent reductions and bargains. I appreciate help but most of the time they dont know diddly sqwat about what their talking about...
Although, some can be very helpful, most of the time they're just annoying...
