and I overheard a customer asking about the ps3. the customer was thinking of buying one later on, the worker told him that getting one was not a very good idea. He said that it was just like an expensive ps2, the graphics for resistance were like ps2, and even one of the games he mentioned(I cant remember what game)said the graphics were like ps1, and lastly he said the online play sucked.

I already have resistance and planing on getting a ps3 as soon as I finish getting the money but is this true about the graphics and online play?

Actually the PS3 got the same graphic as a Supernintendo.

Actually, the PS3 IS a supernintendo, just with new cover.

People are so stupid at these stores. First of all never EVER take advice from an "expert". If you want good advise dont listen to main game sites go to the forums and read what real people think and say. Oh and if you really want to counter these idiots mention MGS4, FF13 and heavenly sword will be out soon! Watch them say unconfermed rumorsand lies about games ported to the 360 or Wii.

All the employees that work for GameCrazy, Gamestop, and or EB Games........are MICROSOFT P.O.S. They get paid for bashing the ps3. Don't believe any word that comes out of their mouths. They're trash.

Yeah, these employees are idiots that think they know everything. I never ask an employee at these places for advice ever. In fact, I usually make it a point to NOT shop at these places, just to avoid these morons.

Why on earth would an employee turn a potential customer off from a $599 sale? I don't believe you.

If you are telling the truth though, that is one dumb employee.

If I were in that situation, I'll just ignore those employees since it's quite too early to bash the PS3 right now considering that it's still young compared to the 360. And I wouldn't bother getting a 360 since I don't want to miss my PS2 library.

Really? Twice? That's ludicrous, any employee no matter how big a fanboy shouldnt just downright lie to potential customers, it's a sale, the employees at my EB will take a grab at any chance to make a sale.

i'm sorry to say this, but these threads are getting more useless than ever.

This is the only forum that has these kind of threads


"lol..ebgames" "Gamestop said this" Game crazy made me cry a river today" I am not saying this thread is false.

I think many of the same threads such as this one is nothing more than a lie

each day 10 threads like this are created saying the same thing. I would say 9 out of 10 threads like this one are false

That sounds more like the biased opinion of an X Box fan-boy rather than one of someone in gaming retails. I work at a Game Crazy and what I always tell customers my honest opinion. Honestly, the X Box has an edge because of the time in which they both came out. Most of the X Box games are running in 1080p while a handful of PS3 games are doing that. BUT the X Box charges 99.99 for the wireless adapter and 199.99 for the HD DVD player, While the 60 gig PS3 has all that included in the price. If you think about it when it comes tobuying a system with all the fixings ur paying more for the XBox than the PS3 ur just paying for every thing in installmentsrather than paying upfront. So if you want a PS3 you can buy one now since they are coming out with a few good games now and a lot more in the future or listen to the hype and go with theX Box. Either way,YOU ARE WINNING. So go with your gut feeling...orwhateveryour financially comfortable with. Its funny howpeople argue about technical prowess of the PS3 and the XBOXbutthe WII is kicking both their butts...f**king kids.

i don't get some of these employees. if i worked for a large corporation i would TRY and talk people into buying a $600 console you know, so my employer could make money so he could sign my paycheck every two weeks. some of these fanboys are really taking things WAY too far. i bet if some of these sales people made commission off of what they sold, they would trying to sell as many $600ps3s as possible so they could make more money.

After that idiot said the graphics 'look like PS1' I'd leave because you have to be freakin stupid to believe that.

I went into Gamecrazy once and I will never go in there again, nerd central and the people that work there have no clue on what the hell they are talking about.

Actually the story has some validity because Game Crazy employees do not get commision for the systems itself but they get something for the service contracts(warranty.) It sucks.

Ok you sound paranoid! Give me a break...maybe some of these comments have a valid point, ever think about that? It's a reason why more people are having fun with the current360 game lineupand Xbox Live.

Videogame store employees are often jackasses.

If you're unhappy leave a complaint with the top manager, mention the incident and the guy will be in trouble since he would essentially be damaging sales by badmouthing a product they are selling.

I was at EB games the other day and the guy was saying that the PS3 was well priced condiering Blu-ray players cost over $1000  
Yeah, these employees are idiots that think they know everything. I never ask an employee at these places for advice ever. In fact, I usually make it a point to NOT shop at these places, just to avoid these morons.Zero_Space

At my EB games they have always been good help and will tell when a game is good or bad and who would like it.  They can also sugest games based on games you've liked in the past.

That guy wasa total door knob. If he's trying to stop acustomer from making a$600 purchase, he's obviously not the brightest person you've met. Resistance looks amazing for a launch title, great textures and such. Also, none of them look as bad as a PS1 game and they all look better than PS2. Well, maybe not Sonic the Hedgehog, but that's not made by Sony and it looks just as bad on the 360 as well.
