All sent in...only missed a few out. Nintendo round for me was awful - started out as a Sony boy and then moved to Microsoft with the original Xbox. If I get more on the Nintendo round than any other...I should be shot!

Any indication on who is winning so far?

I guess it helps having all 3 from the last couple of generations. Still had to guess a few as I was PS2-less for a long while.

Well, should be ok on Microsoft, but the PSone was my last Sony console and only Nintendos I've owned were the GB colour and the DS original...

I just hope the years working P/T at GAME did me well!

Probably not if it was anything like the Game stores round here...you were favoured not by your customer service skills, hard work or background knowledge.

Nope, instead you got on better at Game if you were a girl. Especially slim and a bit flirty.

I did enjoy working there except for a 2-faced four-lettered-starry-word who told one lie after another. I'd name and shame but there's no point and I don't care anymore :)


Anyhow, back on topic -I'm relying on my Game & Gamestation experience for the Sony section :)

I did enjoy my time at Game, we were a bit unorthodox compared to what Game should be like but we did ok. Took it upon myself to find out about things and be good with customers. As Yate had no real passing trade, we used to get the same people in on a daily/weekly basis.

Still, hopefully won't be working there again.

But can understand the girl thing. My previous managers did actually employ girls depending on how attractive they were.


Results today...
