I headed down to Tenchi after school today to get my DS crystal screen protector renewed (like finally).
While standing at the counter idly while the staff was working on it, this adult strolled into the shop.
AND.
He said something that sounded positively OBNOXIOUS in the ears of any true gamer.
I was indeed annoyed by his words.
Man: Hi. Do you have any PSP war games?
Staff: Yeah sure, hold on.
*Starts selecting a few titles off the shelves, placing them on the counter*
Man: Hmm... which is the latest?
Staff: Well they're all pretty new. Logan's Shadow is pretty good.
Man: Well, I don't know... I'm actually looking for some decent games for my eight year old kid. You have any games for an eight year old?
P.S: Yeah FUCK that... FATHERS BUY THEIR EIGHT YEAR OLD CHILDREN A FREAKING $300 PSP WHEN THOSE BRATS DON'T EVEN GODDAMN KNOW HOW TO PLAY IT IN THIS AGE WE LIVE IN.
Staff(Picks Megaman Powered up from the shelves): Yeah, this is a good game for kids.
P.S: Yeah go fuck your dog... Megaman is an action platform game which requires SKILL. And fuck that, I'm not talking about the kind of skills in 'Cooking Mama' or anything. I'm talking about REAL SKILL here. Just look at the fucking Fireman's stage in MM-Powered up... even I have to struggle with all the goddamn platforms which keeps on disappearing erratically (leaving you to fall into the lava), let alone a fucking eight-year old.
Yes I am aware that the graphics are extremely cute.
But that doesn't mean you're going to clear the game by spamming the 'forward' and 'shoot' button, you moron.
Man: Oh okay, that looks nice. What else have you got? I want something with outstanding graphics.
P.S: You want graphics? Go fuck your dog. Damn... it's so annoying - everyone cares only about the graphic these days and not the content.
Staff(Selects Monster Hunter 2): This has got good graphics.
P.S: LOL?? MONSTER HUNTER??? LOL?????????????????????????????????? DOES IT EVEN FUCKING LOOK AS IF EIGHT YEAR OLDS KNOW HOW TO COMBINE MATERIALS FOR WEAPONS? DOES IT LOOK AS IF EIGHT YEAR OLDS CAN UNDERSTAND THE STORYLINE WHEN IT'S ALL ABOUT SOME ANCIENT HISTORY TO YOU?? THE FUCKIN' KID'S GONNA WET HIS PANTS AND DROP HIS PSP WHEN HE SEES THE GIGANTIC DRAGONS!
Man(Looks at the back cover with a majestic dragon spewing flames): Oh this looks awesome. Really great. The graphics are awesome... my son will definitely love it. But is this game suitable for young kids? Is the gameplay too hard?
Staff: Well... not really... I mean... yeah it should be fine...
P.S: Yeah you can fuck your dog... my ass is fine. This guy is obviously AWARE that Monster Hunter 2 is NOT for eight year old brats. His stuttering was apparent and that was all it took to expose him. But he went on ahead to promote the game anyway. What an asshole.
Man: Oh alright... I'm just gonna buy a few more games. I want something with good graphics. You know what's bothering me? I don't want to buy a game that looks nice merely because of the box-art only to realize that the in-game graphics suck when I get home. No, I wouldn't want that.
Tell me, which game has really good graphics?
Staff(points to a few war/army titles): These are good.
Man(Points to a shelf of PS3 games): Hey! There are MORE games over there!
Staff: Erm, that's for the PS3.
Man: What's a PS3? Can't I play those games on a PSP? What's the difference?
Staff(Points to a PS3 on display): That's a PS3.
Man: How much for one?
Staff: About $760 bucks.
Man(Astonished reaction): Whoa! Nevermind. Alright, I'll take Medal of Honor and another few games then. How much for them all?
Staff: Well let's see... $250.
Man: Alright.

SIGH...................................................................................................................................
I'm speechless.
Annoys the fuck out of me when I overhear people on the streets exclaiming, "Hey! This game is awesome, like totally!"
Yeah you don't know shit about games...
Now I'm beginning to wonder what the kid's going to do with his new Megaman PU, Monster Hunter 2 and Medal of Honor games.
Kid(*gritting his teeth on the neckline of his shirt*): GRRR WHY CAN'T I JUST WIN!!!
