BS87 0 Posted July 5, 2002 muuusst.. stop...pong...noooooo Anyway, i called BestBuy today,and i wonder if you actually have to go to school to get a job there. Some Woman picked up the phone, and i asked her about it. She made me confirm the name of it 6 times. After looking she came back and said "yo we only have umm somtin called Cold Wars Crisis, and umm.. some gold thing" I just sighed and hung up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sphinx 0 Posted July 5, 2002 You know what I think ? The girls like that, that work there have no sence of selling anything, the only way they got the job was because their boyfreind worked there, and they only reason they joined the crew is because they want to talk to their boyfreind. Pure crap. They should hire people that know how to sell games and know alot about them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Serapis 0 Posted July 5, 2002 Hey, maybe she just usually works in the music section? She might even be hot?

MDRZulu 0 Posted July 5, 2002 You know whats fun? get some of your buddies and hook up an old pentium or 486 just to the power and power and turn it on and you each get a screw driver and hit it and drag the screw drivers all over and it will spark like a MOFO!! If you do this be sure to drag the screw driver through the IDE ports for maximum sparking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lilwillie 47 Posted July 5, 2002 Well, my brother finally called back but I was off so heres what he said about our Best Buy. Maybe by the 10th, maybe not. Employee in charge of games was pissed cause people have been calling everyday asking about it(hehehhehe) and he's sick of them. So I guess that means a extra couple of calls are in order(hehehe). In all seriousness, I really think the best buys are lost and just don't want to admit they havent a clue when they will recieve shipments. So just like when the original OFP came out, and Red Hammer, Codemasterbaters have screwed the pouch. Really people, if you don't have it ready to ship and in stores until the 10th, don't plaster the release as the 28th of the previous month. Really, it won't affect sales of us diehard fans, but the ocassional gamer will be standing in the store wondering where it is, decide Ghost Recon (or something else)will do and not come back for Resistance until the bottom dropped out of it and its only 12.99$ or something like that. Ya, this is only a "what if" but in the world of gaming its shit or get of the pot. Nobody likes a bullshitter. Just some random thoughts as I get nothing done at work.

blackdog~ 0 Posted July 5, 2002 If you call the Codemasters tech support people to inquiry about the game, they will either go "Whut? Residence? Huh? Resistance? I don't think they sell that", or something like "I'm not sure, but the reason why is because the people who make the CD are going to slow or something" - like I'm going to believe that.
