Knowing that Skyrim was delivered today I went to Target, figuring the salespeople there probably had no idea when the official launch of SKyrim was. I asked, and sure enough they had it in stock, and the clerk went to get it for me. He came to the counter, Skyrim in hand, and said "Let me ring it up for you." I was convulsing with anticipation, until the game wouldn't ring up, and he figured out why. Sorry Bethesda, he had to try =(

Ummm, convulsing with anticipation of what? Staring at a box for 2 days?

LOL I tired the same thing @ Target today.

I picked out some guy who looked clueless and asked if they had Skyrim PC in. He asked if I saw it on the shelves I said no but asked him to go check in the back and he did. But he came back and said "Sorry it is not available for sale yet"

So now I bought it via Steam and preloading right now.

Haha, nice try nice try.

I was going to try this at walmart, but they had a large poster up saying it comes out friday, so no dice.

How do you know he wasnt getting it for one fo the consoles?

Good employees.
For shame, fellow forum-goer. For shame!

An act like that would surely cost them their employment!

This is why Target should be shut down.

Hmm, good question. I guess I just assumed with his using punctuation and not having to resort to words like l33t and pwnz etc that he must be a PC gamer

Obviously what they say about assuming could be correct here, only time will tell.

However, doing some preliminary investigative foruming.. With the above being said, looking at some of his past posts brings this up:


So, I just assumed that since he would prefer the 360 controls over a mouse and keyboard that he was going to be using a computer preferably with a 360 controller hooked up to it.

Of course he still may have been looking to get a console version even if he plays games on the PC.

How is it that Target employees wouldn't know when the official launch is? Do they have aliens working there, or what?

Convulsing in anticipation?
Where have I seen this before? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLnWf1sQkjY

I think that the propensity to "PC game" is more contingent upon finances than grammar, though I could be mistaken...

I've never actually seen anyone use the word l33t. It's really embarrassing to be called a PC gamer sometimes, some people just go over board with console user bashing. Very immature. Some of the biggest hypocrites I've ever seen in my life.

Do you have images turned off or something? Usually a indicates joking. Or perhaps you didn't know that.

No, I didn't know that. Because I come from Gamefaks, where winkies usually indicate someone just trying to insult someone further. Sorry.

True. Thats why i came here. Got tired of the bs over there. The new vegas board just after GRA was the worst..

That's when I said "Look! A Distraction!" and snatched it from him, running at full speed out of the store.
