Gamestop,EBgames,FYE. Almost EVERY clerk I meet MUST judge the things I ask for or buy. There so god damn annoying. I went in a few days ago to get Okami and the guys like (in a really nerdy arrogent voice) "You DO know the next generation of gaming is here, dont you?" I was like.....yeah buddy....I do. And I go to FYE and my cousin works there so I mention the 360 im getting soon. And the guy next to her is like "XBOX sucks bla bla bla" These kids think they are like super gamers cause they work an electronics stores. I cant stand it. Anyone else hate it?

hmm true, I tryed to buy genji days of the blade for ps3 and hes like, "you Know this has got bad ratings right?"

Honestly, I DONT CARE, and Im very sure he didnt play it, because i bought that game right after launch date. And im very sure that he didnt line up for a ps3 for 16 hours... anyway, yeah I find that annoying too.

People just need to be told to **** off. Recently, I've learned that, especially in a big city like Princeton, where you're probably going to never see a good majority of the people again, to do so.

I used to like how they would always comment on the games I buy by saying good things about it if there wasn't a line behind me, but these days I find it a tad annoying, it feels like I'm forced to stand there and listen.

It's probably just your area.  At my local EBGames (which is the number one store in the Northeast, by the way), they just say hi when you come in, ask if you need help, and every now and then do a quick little promotion for some item in the store (this is required by company policy, so I let it slide if I disagree with something like that).  They always tell me to have a nice day when I'm done.  All in all, probably the best customer service I've seen in any retail store I've been to.  And I work in retail, too.

EB clerks here piss me off...the first day I go I see an employee trying to show a customer how to plug headphones into a GBA SP. While he's struggling to do so I go "Hey, you know the SP hasn't got a headphone jack, right?" and he replies by tapping on his nametag and saying "Who's the official here, huh?" So I turn my attention to the customer and tell him: "The SP hasn't got a headphone jack, but there are accesories that enable you to do that, they're right over there". Needless to say the employee was now hanging his head in shame...moron.

"Would you like to buy a strategy guide despite the fact all of the stuff is readily available on the internet?"

"Would you like to preorder something, because God only knows that our record on fulfilling preorders is absolutely top-notch. Would you, would you, would you, huh?"

"Why, yes, we can give you $1.00 for that game that we will sell for $12." (or whatever. I don't sell games to them.)

I frigging hate Gamestop / EB Games. Seriously, they are like Radio Shack, in that I think a requirement for getting employed there anymore is to be a deceitful, disingenous worm (although at least the people at Gamestop usually have a clue about the store's products, which is more than I can say for Radio Shack these days), but they are pretty much the only place to buy a large selection of used games from anymore, so...

They annoyed me last time I was there... treated me as if I was a complete moron.

Clerk:Sir, you are aware that you need a good computer with dual-core processor to play play Supreme Commander at decent settings right"

Me: Ok? What's your point...

I avoid EB/GameStop when possible...if you have a GameCrazy near you, go there.  GameCrazy is great.

In all my years of shopping at Gamestop and EB I have only once had a guy make a negative comment towards my purchase and I buy a lot of questionable product.

Gamestop,EBgames,FYE. Almost EVERY clerk I meet MUST judge the things I ask for or buy. There so god damn annoying. I went in a few days ago to get Okami and the guys like (in a really nerdy arrogent voice) "You DO know the next generation of gaming is here, dont you?" I was like.....yeah buddy....I do. And I go to FYE and my cousin works there so I mention the 360 im getting soon. And the guy next to her is like "XBOX sucks bla bla bla" These kids think they are like super gamers cause they work an electronics stores. I cant stand it. Anyone else hate it?Kokiri-Kid

 Its clearly "sales talk" (Though it is kind of insulting really)

Yep, most people are stupid.  However, I work at EBgames and if you had brought Okami up to the counter I would have said: "This is an awesome game."

Yea, i know what you mean. They feel like they have gaming knowledge all because they work at a electronic store. Sometimes you just go to keep it moving and ignore them.

I can honestly say i've lucked out at the EB/Gamestop where I live at.  They're actually friendly and know what's what when it comes to games.
