Im still in shock and cannot belive what one of the workers there said to me yesterday!

When having a chat to him I told him I owned a Gamecube and that an X-box was on its way to me, when I mentioned X-box he shaked his head and grinned. And he TOLD ME TO TRADE IT FOR A PS2?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Seriously, this is no joke. A Game employee really did say that!

Xbox is doing extremely well then, even when tonnes of people (potential buyers!) are being fed this garbage!

Three for you here;

GAME near Broadmarsh, Nottingham.
GAME in Victoria shopping centre, Nottingham.
GAME in Derby.

So all 3 near me suck ! Not to worry though, there's Gamestation in Nottingham, and Another World in Derby, both of which are excellent, and give higher trade in prices, and aren't full of Sony employees.

Customer - "Hello i would like to purchase an Xbox"
Game - "Don't, get a PS2, They have Grand Theft Auto 3 and thats all that matters"
Customer - "Its not for me, Its for a son, hes 13"
Game - "Get Grand Theft Auto 3, and give it to your son!"
Customer - "I don't want to get a PS2! Nor GTA3"
Game - "Oh, ok, Get a PS2 as it has a DVD drive on it"
Customer - "So has Xbox...."
Game - "Don't get an Xbox, I like Sony better, My Playstation 2 keeps me warm in bed at night"
Customer - "Well im getting an Xbox from somewhere else then"
Game - "PS2 has better graphics...."


Sighs. Example of the retardedness of some Game employees.

Laughing, shaking his head and saying "I would trade it for a ps2" offended me, as he was implying that I was stupid for buying it and the like. I dunno, I just found it quite a stupid thing to come out with.

Well - if he had 'I would' at the start then you can't really blame him, it's his opinion. A lot of people own PS2's as it's got some really great games on, so they're quite shocked to sometimes see the only console someone doesn't have is Sony's. But you'll have all three soon anyway, you're one of the lucky ones!

he had no argument whatsoever it was just "I would Trade it for a ps2" almost as an intimidating order.
