Well I don't know, if you think about it it has dragons and magic and even guys that look like girls, you gotta be on something to see that stuff.

I remember GameStop's job training video they had us watch (I used to work for those shysters for about 3 months) and the video was both sexist towards women and kinda racist to I think.

I'll try to find it.

EDIT: Here I found a couple, I think these are it. Also it's funny how they have English accents even though I worked at an American one.

Video Gamestop Job Training

How to sell video games to things that aren't men

Yes these are actually real, and they are terrible and genearlising. So glad I don't work there, they rip you off so bad. Something I don't believe in doing.

But wouldn't hipsters hate Final Fantasy because of how popular it is? XIII aside, of course.

Well, they'd still play FFVI and FFVII, since they're retro and not current. If they were REALLY a hipster they'd play FF1-3 on the NES.

NEVER VII, was too popular. But other than that, pretty much. Need proof? Take a look at the average SW FF thread...:lol:

Oh yeah, that's right, how'd I forget FFVII's insane popularity.

Guess I'm just not hipster enough. :(

My thoughts exactly. Jeesh when have 'hippies' been relevant anyway, that generation passed that phase long ago.

Except that "Gamestock" promotion has nothing to do with Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy is just one of many old games being discounted.

Considering my favorite bands are Black Sabbath, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and all those old bands, That 70's Show and that I like Final Fantasy, I approve of this ad lol. And to add to it, I dislike hipsters. This ad is definately not trying to get hipsters to buy. They hate everything and anything popular, and FF is a big name, they would be excited for some unheard of indie game, so essetianly they would loath me on my game and music choices, they aren't odd and out there wierdness stuff .....

Hippies > Hispter just wanted to add that lol

Since hipsters have been fully absorbed by the mainstream and our lovely, lovely culture industry, the 'hipsters' are the mainstream - as with every other subculture that becomes absorbed and eventually diluted.
