Whilst talking to a friend in the Somerfield Superstore (England) he works at, I casually mentioned I hadn't got round to finding the money for a PS3 yet, but I desperately wanted to own one.
Then, from out of nowhere, this guy appears and says "don't buy a PS3 mate, the PS3 is s***, buy a 360 instead!"
Because he said it in a kinda cheerful way, I assumed this man was a friend of my friend, so I polited told him "no, I want a PS3 because it has all the exclusive games I want to play."
He then goes "no, seriously mate, the graphics are way better on the 360. Me an me mate played Oblivion on both of them at the same time and it actually looks a bit better on the 360".
I spent literally 10 minutes with this guy listening to him go on about the 360's 'superior' graphics and me telling him it still didn't have the games I wanted before he eventually goes "well F*** off then!" then walks off.
As it turns out, this guy wasn't a friend of my friend at all, he was just some random guy that jumped in on our personal conversation!
I found this to be really bizarre. He was at least in his 30's, and wasn't the kind of guy you'd associate as a 360 elitist (he looked like the kinda guy you wouldn't have thought played videogames at all).
This is the only time something like this has happened to me, so I'd like to know, has anything like this happened to you guys? Or maybe it happens all the time?
