The Art of Getting By

All you hard core gamers out there, tell me if i'm being stupid here. I was looking for a game in this particular store, and found its strategy guide instead. Obviously when you see the guidebook, you'd think the game must be around somewhere right? So i approached the staff who provided me with a series of facts.

1) Sorry i can't find it on the shelves.
2) We don't keep stock either.
3) Other outlets don't have. I don't think we sell this game.

At this point of time, you're thinking, hmmm, then what's the point of selling the guidebook when you don't sell the main game itself??? Who would buy?? Perhaps people who already have the game from somewhere else would get it if he managed to lose it somehow, but what are the chances?

So i asked her about it, and she gave me the last fact:

4) Sorry, but the books department and the games department are separate

-_-''''''' omg. gg.




(I gotta tell you that i'm talking about POPULAR Bookstores here. They might wanna know that 1) normal people don't go prancing around in their stores looking for gaming guidebooks 2) normal people would think that gaming guidebooks are managed under the same department as Command & Conquer, and not Harry Potter).
