I went to my local gamestop for the midnight launch of MGS4 around 11pm. As I walk in I was immediately approached by a clerk who inquired why I was here. I tell him that I want to buy the MGS4 bundle and that if he has anymore available. He nods and said they have 1 left and to get in line to get it. I jump in line rather excited and start talking to the others waiting to pass time. 15 minutes to twelve some girl walks in and the clerk I spoke to approached her and asked what she wanted. She also said she wanted to bundle and he said, " We have 1 left, get in line." After their little encounter the guy infront of laughs and says to me that he found it funny because that clerk also said they had 1 left when he came in. I just shrugged off the clerks comments thinking it was just a ploy for us to stay in line and make sure we grab a copy. As twelves hits, I walk up to the counter and ask for the bundle. The cashier tells me, "Oh i'm sorry, we promised the last bundle to the girl back there." I'm kinda in shock right now and turn to the clerk I first spoke to and say that he told me they had a bundle left for me to buy when I came in. He covered his mouth with his hand and said, "I thought you meant the limited edition of MGS4 not the bundle." I was speechless for a moment. I gathered my thoughts and call him out on his lie. I responded saying that they had 15 copies of the limited edition on the counter so why would he say they had only 1? He didn't have answer. I turn back to the cashier and say that I doesn't matter if you promise the last bundle to the woman 8 people behind me. I came in before her and stood in line. I was told that you weren't taking pre-orders or reservations for the bundle so its first come first serve. Not sell it to whoever the hell you want to service. The cashier shrugged his shoulders and simply said, "Guess you're out of luck." Then I was instructed that if i'm not going to buy anything to leave the store. I turn around and storm out. For me the isn't even that I wasn't able to buy the bundle, its the discrimination that is getting to me. If I came in late and they sold out that's fine. But coming in early just to be refused to be sold a copy because they prefer to sell it to someone else is ridiculous. I never faced a situation like that before and don't know what to do. I'm honestly considering filing discrimination charges against that store just to place the fear of god into them. I don't like these kind of events happening and I want to prevent them from happening in my neighborhood. I guess I just need to vent a bit because now I can't even sleep because of how agitated I am. If anyone has some calming words that be great. Some mantra or anything because I feel like punching a hole through the wall.
I completely got screwed by my gamestop for the midnight launch. I walked in at 10:30 and was immediately approach by the retailer who asks what i'm here for. I reply that i want to purchase the PS3 MGS bundle and told he has 1 left and to get in line. I stand and line and start talking the $^!& with the others at that time. Around 11:45 some girl walks in and stands in line around 10 people back. Finally twelve hits and I walk up to the counter and ask for the bundle. A different retailer says that they have 1 left and they promised it to the girl back over there. I turn around to the first retailer and said, "You told me that you had 1 bundle left to purchase". That effing guys replies, " I thought you meant the LE of MGS". I just say I don't care and that you are lying because you have 20 copies of the LE right on the counter here. The cashier says, "Sorry guess you're out of luck." I lose my composure and bit and say in heavier tone, "No i'm not. She's out of luck because I waited in line well before she came in." At this time they say, "We're going to have to ask you to leave or we're going to call the authorities to escort you out." I know I can just go to Target tomorrow morning and buy but its mainly the principle here that really is pissing me. They weren't taking preorders for the bundle and even if the retailer misunderstood what I mean by PS3 MGS bundle for LE MGS4. I'm not the one who should me sorry. I just needed to rant a bit.
I decided to turn to the community for some feedback because i'm starting to overthink between my choices. I've been researching HDTV's for a couple of months deciding which I LCD I should buy for my gaming needs. I've finally narrowed down my options to two LCD's which are the 46" Sony XBR4 and the Samsung LN-T4665F. I found some good prices on the internet for both but the Sony outcosts the Samsung by atleast 1000 dollars. I'm not sure if i'm just splitting hairs here but sony has a 120 hz refresh rate compared to samsungs 8ms latency. Each have HDMI 1.3v. Sony has a 18000:1 D.r to Samsungs 15000:1 D.r. As I said i'm not sure if these differences are really worth an extra 1000 dollars. That's why I came here to receive some feedback with people with some experience on these two televisions or has a wider range of knowledge on the subject matter. All help is appreciated, thanks.
Alright cool. I found a comic viewer through the site you mentioned but now I sound rather stupid but I can't find instructions on placing the program on my psp correctly. Does anyone know how?
I'm having sort of a problem here and i'm hoping someone could help out. I'm trying to place Tenjou Tenge Mange into my psp photo file. Obviously, each volume has quite a bit of pictures in them. On my computer, the pictures are ordered by name so it goes in ascending order by number. But when I view them through my psp the order of the pictures come out to the date each picture was modified/created so the pictures are no longer in order and shuffled quite a bit. Now to avoid useless answers, I say again when I view them through the psp and not on my computer; thatany folder via psp folder or orginal locationthat is viewed on my computer screen list the pictures by name. But once I disconnect the psp from my computer and try to view it through the psp, the pictures are now listed my date modified/created. This i'm not to sure how to tell my psp through the psp and not through the computer to list them by name. Thanks for the help.
I have a question about BOFIII and Tales of Eternia for the PSP. I haven't heard of these games coming to psp until you mentioned them. So my question is are these games strictly japanese pertaining to the language so unless I know the language am I unable to play them and also can I play them on a 1st generation psp? Thanks
