I had a little time to waste before going back home today and ended up at my local EBgames store... It's quite a huge store for PC games around here, as well for console games and such.

I browsed the PC game racks a little, then the clerk came to me and asked me if he could help me find something. Hapily I asked him if he knew of a good strategy game to show me.

The only answer he could give me was; "Strategy game? What's that?"






I'm sad...

Ouch, geez surprised that dude got the job anyway, you should have given him some examples, then see what he had to say.

I did. But they simply don't have strategy games at all in the shop! Not surprising since they only have "new" games, but still...

Wow that's something, usually EB games is one of the better shops I've been too, especially for selling used games.

How can they not have new strategy games like Rome:Total War?? I mean I understand if they sell blockbusters, but there are enough popular strategy's to fill up a few shelves...

Doesn't EB no longer exist? Here in the UK at least it was bought by Game a few years back.

Get Hearts of Iron 2 if you have not gotten it already. It is the best release in months.
