First off id like to say that i am not a fanboy. I own, play and love all three consoles. The only thing im biased against are fanboys. This is why this is so funny to me.
Let me set the scene...
I was working at gamestop today and was talking to a co worker about PS3, 360, wii. this co worker hadnt worked in 2 days, and last time he worked we got a shipment of 22(ish. cant remember the exact number) PS3's
CoWorker: PS3 Flopped.
Me: what? how can you even say that yet?
Co: They're not even selling!
Me: so is that why were sold out?
(another co worker (andrew) comes out of the back)
Co: we're not sold out
me: yea we are!
Andrew: no were not
Co: see told ya.
(andrew sells a PS3 to a coustomer)
Andrew: Ok. Now we are.
Coustomer: OWNED!
It may be one of those you had to be theres, but i though it was especially funny. it all worked out so perfectly.

This is why this is so funny to me.it *may* be one of those didn't happen moments... i assure you its true, although i understand why you may not believe it. its so sad that everyone on this board is discredited because stupid fanboys have to make up outrageous fake storys. i dont need to make stuff up. i just use facts. and not self proclaimed fanboy facts either.

Working at a Game Store = Cheaper Stuff = Win Win. Showing people games > flipping Burgers. Which would you pick.[QUOTE="Me_Ur_Daddy"]that is funnay, why work at gamestop dude its filled with nothing but uninformed fanboys, it seems like nothing but pro MS people work there, im tryin to buy a damn used game and they wanna sell me like five 360's and viva pinata IM LIKE WTF DIDNT YOU HEAR VIVA PINATA IS FOR LITTLE GIRLS !!!!PSBox3SixWiactually hes the only fanboy at my store. everyone else likes most other system(cept my former boss who despises microsoft) and viva pinata is actually just a violent, gruesome game that uses candy instead of blood. seriously, its messed up. The sickest thing about Viva Pinata is that you can smash open your Pinatas and feed their innards to your other Pinatas. Until the Hannibal Lector game comes out, there really won't be any other game that shows such enthusiasm for cannibalism.

Working at a Game Store = Cheaper Stuff = Win Win. Showing people games > flipping Burgers. Which would you pick. not only cheaper, but sometimes free. game standees, outdated strategy guides i never got to buy, tons of free merch from company reps(sony rep gave me a GOW 2 box, 3 PSP frizbees, rogue galaxy and ratchet and clank demos, lanyards and about enough keychains to swim in.[QUOTE="DXGreat1_HGL"][QUOTE="Me_Ur_Daddy"]that is funnay, why work at gamestop dude its filled with nothing but uninformed fanboys, it seems like nothing but pro MS people work there, im tryin to buy a damn used game and they wanna sell me like five 360's and viva pinata IM LIKE WTF DIDNT YOU HEAR VIVA PINATA IS FOR LITTLE GIRLS !!!!ArisShadows

is it that hard to believe? i use lol pretty much every where i go.You mean to tell me people actually use the word 'flop' outside of system wars?

The customer did not say' owned'. That much I know.Mu5uk0really, were you there? are you psychic? or are you just an idiot?
I've heard the word 'flop' as in "flop on a couch"; but System Wars is the only place I've heard it used in the sense of a product supposedly failing to reach their target. I would really be taken aback if I heard it used in that way outside of gamespot. :?DementedDragon
Try it with your gamer friends, maybe it will catch on.
"a product supposedly failing to reach their target" = flop
See, it's much easier.
