Disgaea: Hour of Darkness

I actually got to go to Plymouth today, and was trying to find a copy of Disgaea:Hour of Darkness for the PS2 (or Disgaea:Afternoon of Darkness for the PSP). But, I couldn't find a copy of it anywhere. I guess my only hope of getting the game now would be to buy it off of Amazon.

I think I annoyed this one employee at this gaming store, GameStation, when I decided to turn all the Nintendo DS preowned games so that the spines of the boxes were facing outward. Why would I do that? Well, I don't know if anyone else gets annoyed by the preowned sections in gaming stores...but it gets really annoying when you have shelves of the games, all in groups of 4, and never in groups of the same game. For example, with a new release, you'll have groups of the same game, but in preowned, they are in no order, and you will have rows like Cooking Mama, behind that is Professor Layton, then The World Ends With You, then Rune Factory.

It's like that with every group of 4. You end up spending about 30 minutes flicking through every row trying to find the ONE game you're looking for. So, I turned them all. An employee then came over and asked what the hell I was looking for, so I told him and he just shook his head, looking a little angry about what I'd done, and proceeded to put those games all back to the way they were. I'm sure he just wanted me to get the hell out of the store after I'd done that. Why not just leave it how I'd put it? You wouldn't have people kneeling down on the floor blocking the aisle so they can flick through EVERY game.

I'm pretty sure no gaming store would want to hire me to work there because I'd go in every morning and do that again. It would really piss off the other employees, I'm sure. Haha.
