does it bother anyone else seeing a female Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft rep at a Retail store, especially when they are like in there 40's?

i dunno maybe im just being sexist/envious/jealous? but i think like, "omg i could totally do her job better than her!"

but i have looked into what Reps do, as posted on Nintendo's Job website and being a Rep isnt a easy task. Alot of traveling is one thing... but i think i would be in it for all the Bonus trinkets and maybe getting hands on kiosks, or demo units, not for resale stuff...

but now im just getting off track here, "Female Video Game Rep"

/sigh, then again i think id rather see a Female rep, rather than some fat bastard who thinks he knows everything!

I want Roller Coaster Tycoon 4 so bad. Atari hasn't released a new game in the series for 7 years now, and I am really worried that the series is dead. That, or a port of RCT/RCT2 to the iPad. Either would be phenomenal.

Losing internet in my house sucks. Where would we be without smartphones and 3G?

In caves, banging rocks together, desperately trying to get a dial-up modem working.

I'd prefer it stay dead. RCT 3, IMO, was lame. Nowhere near as fun as 1 and 2, plus the new full 3D graphics didn't have the same appeal as the primitive isometric 3D used in the first two. I have little hope that a fourth game would be any better.

Actually, I was stuck with dial-up until mid 2006. It was awful.
