So there I was in Debenhams yesterday walking past the EB in store franchise bit when I overhead this woman ask the sales assistant what console would be best be buy for little Johnies birthday. Being a bit of a nosey parker I feigned interest in the dreamcast games next to the counter so I could listen in !!

The rather interesting reply was that the one to go for was the X-box as it is the most powerful. What about the Playstation 2 she asked - well that's past it now really was the educated reply. The X-box is well ahead of it now and the Gamecube will be out in a few weeks and that has much better games.

Well now you know everyone - you might as well face up to it and start trading in those PS2's.

Why the hell do EB employ these clowns ????

No I could'nt - the kids were terrorising the sales assistant accross the way in the early learning center so I had to go and make the peace.

Did you not say anything to the woman, I'd have been laughing my head off at that.....sorry but I would have just had to say something.

Surely comments like that aren't allowed as thats just being biased to a format.....I'm sure if Sony found out about that then they'd be mightily pooped off!

Maybe that's why the X box is £ 300.00 - so they can pay loads of comission for each sale !!

That is bloody outrageous!

Yet another reason why I never buy anything from EB, expensive too.

Do you ever get the feeling they've been bought or bribed by Microsoft?
