Dude, I have a lifetime membership, for ninety bucks. and I have beautiful girls to talk too, and famous wrestlers who help me train, do you get that with wiifit?....nofixer293

Apparently, you live in fantasyland. I've never seen a gym where 90$ gets you a lifetime membership... unless that "gym" is your garage, and the beautiful women and wrestlers are on posters decorating the walls.

Yore right, what will push the PS3 is the greayt word of mouth that ACTUAL PS3 owners spread. As opposed to the negativity that everyone that does not own the system spews. I know that anyone that has had a chance to play and interact with all of the features of their PS3 for at least 3 days will have nothing but great things to say about it.

Which is more then I can say for my dusty 360.

Anyone? I wouldn't count on it. I spent a lot more than 3 days with the PS3, and there are plenty of non-great things I could say about it. Which is why I still prefer my decidedly non-dusty 360.

The PS3 is nifty, but it's certainly not a clearly superior platform.

who gives a crap about story in video games. In every game I play, I could give a crap about story, just playing it for fun. There is something called reading a book for that, you should try it some time.

The millions of ppl playing rpgs and games like metal gear solid, and I bet ive read more books than you ever will.

I'd be willing to take that bet, given that you've consistently confused heavy amounts of dialogue and exposition with story. The Zelda games have a strong narrative thread, at least as strong as what you'll find in Metal Gear or Final Fantasy: what they lack are long stretches of dialogue, and a surfeit of cut scenes.

Unless you also contend that there's no narrative to ICO, or Shadow of the Colossus.

Oh noes. They offered to sell you the box they put on the shelf. What. Horror.

They take the disc out of a copy or two, and set it on the shelf, so people can look at it without there being risk of theft. What a crime. It's not like the disc has been used, at all. It comes out of the box, goes in a cd sleeve, and gets locked up in a drawer.

I'm sure you could try harder to make this molehill into a mountain, but you're going to need a heck of a lot more dirt.

IT does get used. Trust me. any employee can play gutted copys and take it home. we can also take home dvds too. I have watched entire seasons of 24 on dvd for free.

99 percent of the display copies on the shelf are never used until they're sold. There were, as of yesterday, 497 different new PS2 games on the shelf at my store. I can count, on the fingers of one hand, how many of them have ever been checked out by an employee. And Ironwarrior? The shirts and pants you wear? I guarantee you they were pawed more often by prospective customers than any game EB/GS sells. Hell, I guarantee you own a pair of pants that someone tried on in the store before you bought it. If you're worried about customer funk, then you've got bigger worries than fingerprints on a clamshell case.

Did you copy my name, or someone else's.

Neither. Patrick is my first name, T & Y the initials of my middle and last names, respectively.
