them out of a copy of Quake 4 before the official release date.
This is how the convosation went:
*ring ring*
Him : Hello Gamestation Newport
Me: Hi i wonder if you have any copies of Quake 4 in stock please?
H: Quake 4?
M: Yes
H: You are joking right? Its not out til December
M: ...The PC version, not the xbox 360 version now..
H: Yeh both versions aint out til December
M: I think you will find its out very soon, like end of the week?
H: Well its been pushed back in the last few weeks now its not out
until December at the earliest
M: Please tell me your joking? It went Gold nearly 2 weeks ago
H: Look its not out til December, i have a peice of paper that says
so here, along with other released dates for 100's of games
M: You need to sort yourself out mate
*hangs up*
This really gripped my shit at this point so i rang another store to
just check whats been given around:
*ring ring*
Him2 : Hello Game Newport, We buy and trade Games...yadda
Me: Quake 4, do you have it as yet, if not when is it out?
H2: No we dont hvae it and its out friday. Really looking forward
to this game. Looks alot better than the unfortunat travesty
that was Doom 3
M: Fantastic, if you got it in stock tomorrow would you sell it?
H2: HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH no
M: Happy Days, Cheers.
How can 2 shops, 300 yards away from each other give so much
different information?
ack, pointless post but the jist of it is that most game places dont
know there arse from their elbows and think they know it all
because of a little flap o paper!!
