(Taken from my other blog, but i will try and keep both of these (this one and the other) concurrent)

Being a employee for the 'stop corporation for almost half a decade...... holy shit.... i didn't realize that till now. God that makes me sad....

Anyways as i was saying; I have seen and heard many things that, well... just unnerve me from the point that people actually think this way. Take for instance one of my more recent ventures. I was working a mid-day to close shift and one guy comes in with some trades. OK you maybe thinking "hah hah... look this lowly GS employee is bitching about his job.. i hate GS anyway so why the hell do i care or want to listen to you" and for that i may agree with you. But i am a avid gamer like the many that inhabit the interwebs that view the common folk that come into game stores are fucking morons that need to be burned and euthanized... so bear with me. This guy i have never seen before... never met... never even knew he existed before he came in.

"I am here to trade in my Xbox360 because im tired of Microsoft and their dying red ring consoles, and Blu-Ray has won so i want a Ps3"..... Stop and read that again....

Because Blu-Ray has won.. you are selling your system to buy another system because of movies... Not for better games (at the time MGS4 had not come out yet.... and yes yes Uncharted is amazing dont want to hear "OMG YOU SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE AMAZING UNCHARTED" I know.. shhhh)

So i explained to the guy "I would'nt do that man, Blu-Ray yes has won the format war against HD-DVD but it doesnt really help the Ps3 besides that you get to watch High-Def format movies. Nothing really yet has taken advantage of the space that is available to make Blu-Ray viable besides having uncompressed audio for games making them sound better" Also this was at the time that EA Sports titles.. ran and looked better on the 360.

But without much digressing after explaining all that he still insisted on making the switch.

Trade in price on the 360 at the time was i think in the ball park of 170 with a wireless controller....plus he had all his games and some other crap. But it ended up being that he traded in some of the 360 titles just to turn around and rebuy them... on the ps3 for full price and get less.

Why waste the cash... he got about 290-340 in store cred..... the ps3 was still 499 at the time... a smile went upon my face as he also found out the ps3 doesnt come with component cables nor a headset, or other fancy things that you get included in the box.

Now that was just a small tale that as you can look above has no structure when it comes to me recolating from memory. And yes i am not a x-bot fanboi.... or whatever their called now... I just so happen to own all systems and play them equally... but like the xbox more.
