The other day...I went to the mall in my town and went into the Electronics Boutique store. I was looking around to purchase a game for the PS2 when I spotted The Bouncer!!! I was so excited about this that I didn\'t bother reading the box. On the very bottom of the box was a mesage that read, "For Display Only, Game Coming Soon." I thought...WTF!!! I was so disappointed. I knew the game couldn\'t have possibly come out yet, but I was just so excited. My friend slapped me across the face so I could get a hold of myself. That sucked a lot of a**...:(.
-
yea but how was that EB\'s fault
you shouldn\'t damn them - it was your fault for getting so excited not theirs
oh well i just wanted to say that becuase for one their are eb employees here that may flame you - so be careful about what you say
-
I used to work at EB and I take offense, but I am not going to flame you because I am not a flamer.......not that there is anything wrong with being a flamer. :D
-
i work at EB..but im not going to flame you, everyone gets excited and loses their thought..and sometimes people do that..next time..READ THE BOX first ;)
-
Hehe. You could say "sh1t happens".
I can feel your disappointment. But you\'re lucky to even see the box! I mean, I\'d be excited even for that. And it really signals that the game is coming soon. You have the patience to wait if I have. Because someones say I have really short patience ;)
Blame yourself, Evis, not the geeks at EB whom were as nice enough to put the box on the shelf for you and your friends to be shocked at.
our shops haven\'t got new PS2-games since december. I hope march will change this. i\'d be jumping to ceiling if I\'d even see a box of new and fresh PS2-game.
-
I\'ve seen that at my EB too...but its been there for a few months now.
-
i think they should take down the stupid displays of future releases.
-
well i cant complain about them beacuse they Pre-ordered, my copy of Zone of Enders for me, even though they strangly don\'t have it on their list or even heard about it ?
ah well as long as i have it pre-ordered that will be fine :D.
-
But then all of a sudden they deliver you wrong game, ooseven, because they don\'t know nothing about the game.
And then you\'ll be so p1ssed off you agree with this thread.
But this is just speculating ;) I know they can do their jobs at EB ( I don\'t have any personal experiences from the shops; there\'s the reason one why I can\'t call them lazy or bad or stupid and I don\'t want to offend anyone working there; and that\'s the reason two why I shouldn\'t call them anything :) )
-
oh no you have now made me paranoid about this :sconf:, maybe i could pre-order it form a number of diffrent sources, and become a ZOE :thepimp: if i am left with 20 odd copys of the game.
-
at software etc theyhave boxes of gt3 and onimusha, they say coming soon and pre order right on the fromt of the box. i think its funny that you didnt see that lol
-
Well I to would be excited if I spotted the Bouncer sitting on a shelf.The difference between me and you........I would have bought without looking at the box.

then i think your EB has some problems..maybe you should apply for a job, if your old enough to work there
i think they should take down the stupid displays of future releases.
why take it down ? we are trying to get some sales/pre-orders..and the most important thing..HELP CUSTOMERS OUT !..without those boxes i bet no one would know about the game
Blame yourself, Evis, not the geeks at EB whom were as nice enough to put the box on the shelf for you and your friends to be shocked at.
geeks ? i resent that

You should have known that the game wasn\'t out yet.
