My Dog 1, Guy in Wal-mart 0

Last night I walked in to wal-mart just to pick up a few things and decided to walk through the electronics section. I wanted to check out the Xbox 360, which looks good, but not $300 good. I found a guy playing Call of Duty on it. I started to watch him play. The stage started with the player behind cover in a city setting. In fount of the player was a blocked road with a machine gun in a far building. Right in frond of the play an AI character was screaming that we have to flank the machine gun to the right. Over and over. This guy (playing the game) just kept coming out from behind cover trying to shoot at the number of german troops behind the road block, only to take 15 - 20 rounds to the head. He kept this up for around ten minutes, come out of cover, try to shoot someone, take it to the face.....
This got me thinking, my dog picks up on things after 3-5 attempts. For example my dog (named Duke) us to try to jump up on me when we were playing. I would just sweep his back legs out from under him and put him on his ass. After about 4 time Duke started to jump at my leg instead of my chest. That way his back legs were just out of reach. I then started to quickly step into him and sweep him. Now he runs around to my side and jumps at me, to avoid being set on is ass.
The Guy at walmart must have tried the same thing at least twenty or thirty times. Finally he look to his right and went down the side street. Good I thought to my self he finally got it. No. He ran down the street until he came to two germans behind some barrels. He quickly came to the conclusion that two germans were more dangerous then twenty germans and a machine gun. He then went back to his strategy of getting shot multiple times in the melon. I finally left after ten more minutes of this terrible display. As I walked away I heard him say in anger "What the hell am I supposed to do, run around the block". You mean like the AI character has been screaming at you to do for the last half an hour.
So my dog, about five failed attempts at something and he tries something different, Guy at wal-mart thirty minutes, one gleam of hope.....and again shot in the face.

Either he is in product testing or marketing. ~D

~:joker: Very nice.

I doubt if the X-Box was testing the purchaser..

There's a great joke about WalMart customers, but m52 was in there too so I'll pass

ichi:bow:

No, please tell the joke. The only reason I was in there is it was after I had gotten out of work (12am) and Wal-mart is the only place opened 24/7 around me. Normally I avoid the big W like Star Jones avoids a diet.

I hate idiots like that who don't follow the bleeding obvious routes in a game...the sooner they are removed from the gene pool, the better.

1. Ichi tell the joke!

2. Dude, if they can't follow instructions on a game then that's their problem. You don't have to hate them...~:handball:

I also hate games that are linear and don't allow any deviation at all.

I still can't get used to the XBOX's controller in comparison to the
Keyboard and mouse. Too slow on the X/Y axis, stiff on the strafe.
I hear you tho, great graphics, but not $700 (complete system) good.

too true, idiots who cannot discover the simplest path via instructions must be reeducated lest they interbreed with the intelligent people and dispurify us to the point where dogs are more intellligent.. (of course if the person in question was a hot chick we could let it slide)
