View Full Version : Blockbuster Employee Puttin Down XBox

I have heard people tell stories of people putting down xbox stuff so I decided to tell mine.

I had played Outlaw Golf at my friend's house and thought it looked pretty cool so I decided to rent it. I go to blockbuster and right before I am about to rent it the workers tells me, "I heard it's not that good. Try Tiger Woods game for PS2."

That statement just pised the @#$% out of me.

First of all, I have played Tiger Woods game and now after playing Outlaw Golf it is no where near as good.

Second, all the employee said was "I heard". Not "I played", but just heard. How can you go ahead and tell a customer what or what not to rent from what you have heard.

Why does it seem that people are so quick to put down the xbox? By the end of this year I believe it could be the dominating system. Just wish I could tell people that now.

i hate that two

people are jugding xbox when they never played it(and they say they played it a wal-mart,and wal-mart just puts up demos and crap games)

my friend loved ps2 and thought xbox was crap then i told him to come to my house and well play some games so we did and the next day he thought the xbox ruled

i dont mean to sound like much of a fanboy here but people need to shut the hell up about xbox if they never really played it

I hate that also! I love Tiger woods games but Outlaw Golf will really keep me busy for a while. I heard that sales people are told to try to sell ps2 while it is still here because ps3 will be here shortly and they'll have to get rid of their stock.

The guy never said "XBOX sucks" or nothing like that so how do you see that as "putting down XBOX". He works at the freakin blockbuster, he probably had conversations with people that rented and didn't like it. He was just trying to help. If you ask me, you guys are worst than him.

Well the guy works at Blockbuster...he's not exactly 'in the know'. You should probably feel sorry for him if that's the best job he can get.

I have nothing against people who state their opinion of games that theyve played. But when the person hears that the game is not good they should not go advertising that opinion when they have nothing to back it up.

I was upset over the fact he told me an xbox game sucked which he had never played then he referred me to a PS2 game. Almost like saying, why do you even have that system.

It is just something I thought I would bring up, and see how other people felt on the situation.

Yeah, you'll have to 'suffer' with your Xbox for 4 years until Xbox2 comes out.

But did he ever say to get Tiger Woods just because its on PS2? No. He said it because Tiger Woods was better(in which it is). You guys need to stop being so sensitive with your XBOX's.

Go back to playing your Playstation. If you don't own at least two consoles you don't have the right to call someone a fanboy, Fanboy!

I own XBOX, Gamecube, and PS2, so I guess that gives me the right to call people fanboys. Fanboy!

Then why did you name your thread "Blockbuster Employee Puttin Down XBox"? He put down the game, not the system.



Almost like saying, why do you even have that system.


You must be rather clairvoyant to know what the guy was thinking/implying without him saying it.

Oh, so you speek for everyone now. I hope all the other members have a higher level of competence than you.

xbox is superior so if im a xbox fanboy and your a gc or ps2 fanboy we know a xbox fanboy is better than a ps2 or gc fangirl.
You can spell fanboy but not thread. What a shame.

Everyone leave Invalid Name alone, you guys sound like preschoolers, jesus, your embarresing me. He's not a fanboy and he never once dissed the Xbox. You guys can't even take constructive critism. Y don't u FANBOYS (Ohh, not that!!!) admit the Xbox is not perfect, and neither is the PS2 or GC, but they all rock, because they all have great games, and I, personally, as I've said before, love games, not systems.

Everyone get over it.
In my opinion, I believe the blockbuster dude was hinting towards the statement, "why do you have an xbox".

Invalid Name, in his opinion, thinks I am a fanboy. Whatever, its his opinion, leave em alone.

Just because I made a thread about having a PS2addict doesn't mean I was dissing XBOX.

Ok, now lets go to my posts and really see if I dissed XBOX:

The guy never said "XBOX sucks" or nothing like that so how do you see that as "putting down XBOX". He works at the freakin blockbuster, he probably had conversations with people that rented and didn't like it. He was just trying to help. If you ask me, you guys are worst than him.
Was I putting down XBOX there?

But did he ever say to get Tiger Woods just because its on PS2? No. He said it because Tiger Woods was better(in which it is). You guys need to stop being so sensitive with your XBOX's.
Here?

I own XBOX, Gamecube, and PS2, so I guess that gives me the right to call people fanboys. Fanboy!
I know not here

Hey, I'm new here and I have a question. You guys have XBOX Addict and GBA Addict. Wheres the PS2 or Gamecube Addict?
If you think I was being a fanboy here, then you have a serious problem.
So, this is the big question, where was I ever dissing XBOX?
I tried to have a mature discussion and all you people did was call me names. But you guys are probably only 13 or 14 so I forgive your immaturity

I'm not fighting. I'm just trying to let everyone know that I was called a fanboy for absolutely no reason. They said I was dissing XBOX so I asked them where I was dissing XBOX and they couldn't tell me.

So let me get this straight. Invalid Name (I will call him IN from now on) thinks there should be a GC and PS2 addict, because he ALSO (keyword being ALSO) loves those systems and isn't a Fanboy, and you call him a fanboy. So let me get this straight, If you like any system other than the Xbox, that makes you a fanboy? Where did u guys to to school. Oh, and BTW, calling someone a "fangirl" and calling it worse than being a fanboy is VERY sexist.

But anyway, let fanboys be fanboys, if they get their **** and giggles from it, then so be it.

C'mon, you guys know that I don't mean u. I mean the people who call him a fanboy for wanting a Gc or PS2 addict. I personally there should be a Video Games addict so that everyone can enjoy it.
