That 'video games are for kids'. A lot of people at my school say that and surprisingly they are all as stupid as each other.

Other bad ones I hear are: 'only nerds play video games', 'video games make you stupid and violent' and 'video games ruin your life'.

"Video games are the governments way of training our youth into becoming rapid, thoughtless, indescriminating killing machines." Not exactly a quote really, but things to that affect have been said. And it's just stupid.

Anything that guy PS3_FTW says. Oh my God that guy....He's just...Words cannot describe his retardeness.

He was comparing the **** axis, I mean Sixaxis to the Wii-Mote. For the color he said, The Nunchuk can turn yellow.

Graphics do win, look at the PS2 and the Gamecube.

retarded old people that have never played a video game in their entire life that say "video games make kids violent". theres a reason why theres a rating, ****heads. instead of whining and trying to ban video games, they should crack down on the parents that dont know the difference between "everyone", "teen" and "MATURE".

This isn't very stupid but its a weird thing that happened at my EB... A 35-year old looking man walks into the store and starts talking to the clerk "Is FF12 collectors edition any good?" he says "I haven't played it." "well...do you like FF7?" "uhhh....No I'm not a Final Fantasy fan." "FINE!!! MAKE FUN OF MY FAVORITE GAME!!!!" The man storms out of the store and everyone is compleetly silent.

Ok, so I was at Best Buy looking for Kirby Squek Squad (stupid game was sold out EVERYWHERE, I didn't think games could sell out EVERYWHERE expect for Halo) and there was a girl looking around with her mom.  Her mom says "Here are the DS games."  The girl says "I have DS Lite, not a DS"  LOL!

Yup, there are a lot of idiots that shop at Wal Mart that know nothing about gaming, its so sad.

what do they say?

I recall one time when I was there a few kids who might have been 14 or so (and skipping school cause it was like 1 in the afternoon) on the launch day of the PS3. One kid asked me when Gears of War was coming out for the PS3, suffice to say I laughed at that. They couldnt figure out why there werent any consoles on the shelf either.

Me being the nice person I am, told her nicely that they play the same games. Her mom gives her a told-you-so look and she hesatates (sorry for spelling) and starts looking at the games. Not sure if she bought one, I left after I didn't find Kirby.

The videogames are the source of all violence in the world. (we hear that often)... yeah.... like there were no violence before. They say the Columbine incident was because the criminals were influenced by videogames, yet they never looked at his social situation and family problems...

Man, you aren't kidding. The conversations I've heard there. I've literally bitten my tongue in extreme anger at the uninformed people

:lol: Try working for Walmart, in electronics. Those customers ask questions so dumb, you won't know whether to laugh or smack them up the head. I used to be in charge of videogames (since I knew the most about videogames). And OMFG! Some of the parents were surprising ignorant about games.

just out of curiosity, what lind of things did they ask you?

I mentioned the one about the cell. I have had numerous instances where they asked if games like Mario were on the Xbox, and I got yelled at by a customer when I told her that there was no God of War on the Xbox, etc. Then you have some that ask if they can play their PS2 games on the PSP........for that one, i had to show the customer the demo of the PSP and ask her if a CD can fit in there......I know that was mean, but I was pretty crabby. Then I won't even talk about the questions b4 the 360 came out.

That's the only thing I don't like about Nintendo, they wanna bring THOSE people into gaming :lol:

Well, at least they are doing something to FIX them. If they become gamers, then there will be less people in the world like them!

At a family gathering, as my cousin's 360 turned on, and the words "XBOX 360" flashed on the GIANT TV screen, an older relative comes in and says "is that one o' those Game Boys?"

I've heard that a lot from older people, but not as the name of the console was on the giant screen. :x

However, all my relatives know what the Wii is. It's the first game console they haven't called a Game Boy, and made some other dorky comment about.
