    UK: PS4 Outsells Xbox 1.5 to 1, Still Demands More

    As someone who works in video game retail in the US, I can safely say that PS4 is selling better than the Xbone, at least where I live. We get 1 or 2 PS4's in at a time and they sell almost immediately. We have about 10 Xbox One's and we can't seem to get rid of the damn things.

    Battlefield 4 Drives Down Electronic Arts Share Price

    I just have to say, when it works, it's a blast. My friends and I who got it on PS4 have had a ton of fun. But, like I said, when it works. Hopefully they get it working soon.

    Sony's Yoshida Reacts to Less Than Stellar PS4 Reviews

    Not surprising that the launch titles are mixed. Launch games are always a mixed bag. I'm still getting a PS4, but I wasn't planning on getting any of the launch titles. I'm wanting Second Son though. That looks awesome.

    Do you speak with an accent?

    I was born in the American South but I never really developed a strong accent. My family is mostly from California and my friends from the Northern US, so never really developed that "twang". And I just have to say, thank God. That "twang" is annoying beyond belief.

    Poll: How do You Bring Home The Bacon?

    Full time student, though I'm also a part-time manager at GameStop. Working on getting my degree to be an English teacher.

    Maxis Adding More SimCity Servers Over Next Two Days

    I think they meant EA's tradition of closing down studios who don't sell umpteen million copies of a game.

    Bioshock Infinite: The latest victim of the Stupid-American-Box-Art Virus.

    I wouldn't say it's BAD, but very meh. Not gonna stop me from buying the game though. Since I'm getting it on PC, I hardly ever look at the cover art.

    Why do you hate Gamestop?

    As a long time customer, now employee, of GameStop, I have to say I've never had a problem with them. As I said in an earlier thread, it really comes down to the employees. Yeah, I've gotten shitty service at a store or two, but 90% of the time, I've been treated very well and that's what I...

    Gamestop Makes the Worst to Work For List

    As a current employee of GameStop, I must have gotten lucky, cause I love my job. It really comes down to who you work with. Yeah, we get grilled on pre-orders and such, but I've worked retail for 4 years now and this is by far my favorite job.

    Top 5/10 best games you have ever played

    In no particular order: Final Fantasy VII-I know, overrated. But, this is the one that got me into the series, so it's always in my list. Legend of Dragoon-Great game, found it in the bargain bin in Walmart years ago, never heard of it. Played 12 hours the first night. Halo 3-This was...

    Jimquisition: Xbox 360 and PS3 Are Just Very Crap PCs

    As someone who only recently got a PC worth anything, I have to agree. PC is just the better deal. I mean, I can customize my rig in nearly infinite ways and getting games is a simple as logging into Steam/GOG/etc. Plus, 9 out of 10 times, games are cheaper on PC than on consoles. I will still...

    Does Elfin Lied get better? *no spoilers, please*

    It's a decent show. Not a classic, but definitely worth a watch, though I will say it is overrated. Plot wise, it's lacking to say the least. It never really gets past, "These girls have superpowers, let's see how many ways they can kill you." Some of the later episodes attempt to add a plot...

    Rumor: Next PlayStation Coming in Late 2013

    If this is true, guess who won't be getting one: This guy! Seriously, I understand why the industry doesn't like used sales, but I'm sorry, not many games are worth the full $65 they ask for and I don't feel like paying people for crappy products. Instead of forcing everyone to buy new, they...

    Kingdoms of Amalur Sells 330,000 Copies

    Well that's good to hear. I really enjoyed the game and I'm happy to hear about any new IP doing well.

    Busted Police Chief Admits He Stole Xbox 360s

    See, the funny thing is, I live in a town of around 10,000 and this stuff happens with the cops pretty regularly. It's gotten better in the last couple of years, but still pretty bad. I've only passed through St. Louis (not sure which part), but I don't need to go back.
