I'm sick of this fanboi bullsh!t

So today I went to my Japanese class just like all Wednesdays. I got in there learned a little about how to structure questions in Japanese and then make my way to GameStop to pick up Zack and Wiki. Once I make it into the store I go up to the counter and ask if they have any copies, and the guy behind the counter says he thinks he has some in back. After the guy heads into the back to check for my game a fat guy wearing his Gears of War shirt pulls up behind me and asks me "Why are you buying such a shitty game?" Now I'm not one to get angry, but I kind of snapped on the guy and told him to back off. Of course he starts flaming me telling me how pointless Wii is and that I should just sell my Wii and buy a 360 because it's a real system. Of course he doesn't know that I do in fact own a 360 and I just wanted a reason to use my Wii before Mass Effect takes over my life. Anyways the guy comes out from the back empty handed and asks me if I wanted anything else. I say no and start leaving when Mr. Gears says, "Awww too bad are you sure you don't want Boogie I hear it's like the best game on Wii?" and starts laughing at me. That's where I lost my temper and told him to back the fuck off which immediately had the GameStop employee telling us to leave of course. Finally I left with Gears still talking shit as I got into my car, but seriously what the fuck is wrong with some people? I try to buy a game and get harassed why? Because some asshole can't figure out that it's okay to own more than one system.

I am surprised he didn't use some stale Wii jokes from the old days.

Sometimes I get slightly annoyed when people buy shitty movie-tie-ins or Madden, but it is their money and who am I to tell someone what to buy. I'm not going to say it sucks or anything else about it.

Wii-a-phobia is the new homophobia.

Fatty needs to get out of the closet and admit he's got a hard on for waggle.

god damn dude
calm down
ignore him.
hes a troll. and as you've seen on the cblogs trolls arent good things...

laugh at him, because he is fat, smell, greasy and will never play a wii. his loss, oh well right?
even if he is being a dick to you don't cuss him out.

or just say mario repeatedly until he shuts up. either way win for you.

Well I thought I was actually pretty patient considering. Trolling online is one thing, but harrassing a person in real life is unacceptable IMO.

What. The. Hell?


I could understand how the anonymity of the internet can drive people to be retarded flamers, but in real life?


Holy shit that guy really needs to get a fucking life.

same thing happened to me when i went to get super paper mario. I asked him how many 360's he had. he said im on my 3rd and then started feeding me the "but there are som many components" 360 failure excuse. I said i dont have time and im going home to play my nes or snes or 64 or maybe all of my gamecube games on the wii and left

i like the 360 but since i have gotten my ps3 i got to rip the RRoD worry off my back. Sure there arent as many games but i dont need that many. 2k8 will get me to cod4, then to mgs4 and so on

I really don't understand how you can be single console person now and jump to conclusions about every game. Its clear that guy hadn't been informed of anything and yet the internet sights i would assume he went to would have been yelling about zak and wiki and how great it is as almost everyone is. Do people just have massive blind spots when they don't want to hear something?

What a douche. Who the fuck actually does that, with someone they don't even know?

when I went to buy zack and wiki, the chick behind the counter wanted to know what the game was about. she had no idea that it was such a great game. nothing bad, but it was the most awkward buy i have ever done.

you did get the game at some point right?? cause you should have.

I haven't gotten it yet because it seems to be pretty hard to find where I live, but I'll get it whenever I can find a copy.

360 fanboys are just threatened by the fact that the Wii has already outsold their system. Any 360 owner who is secure in their choice knows that the 360 has a solid library and that the Wii is still on shaky legs at this point.

The thing that stuns me about this is that it happened in real life, not the safe security of the internet where that greasy halfwitted jugglypuff should feel more secure.

I'm beginning to just feel an exacerbated sense of pity for them now, the hate filled little creatures will just end up missing out on alot of fun.

I love Gears and want to play Zach and Wiki.

Cereally I'm only missing 5 achievement points in that game.

You should have beat him down. Remind him that real life has consequences. Trust me, you don't want this behavior to go unchecked. Ever see Idiocracy?
