Goddammit now I'm a pedophile

- Gamestop guy!
"Rob! Jesus, man, haven't seen you around here in a while. What's up?"
- Man, I left all my games up in another state, I need something to hold me over till I get back.
"Oh God, that sounds awful... well, have you played all the Metal Gear Solids? We just got this collection of 1, 2, & 3-
- Yeah, I bought that last week. I beat 'em. I need something else.
"Wait, you played through all of them? In a week? Are you... are you gonna be okay?"
- Not if I don't find something new to play, no.
"Alright, well... we have some new games half off, here's Soul Caliber 3 for 20 bucks?"
- Nah, man, I hate 3-d fighters.
"What about 2-d fighters, you like them? Yeah? Here, this one's new, it's called 'Arcana Heart.' Try it."
- What is this anime chick on the cover? Why is she praying to a topless angel? Is this gonna be bullshit?
"No, man, no! It's gonna be like Guilty Gear, only... better."
- Better?
"Better."
- How better?
"Thiiiiiis much bett-
- I mean why better you idiot god I hate you.
"Alright, look - when you're playing a fighter, what's the name of the game?"

...

- Uh.... Ar...cana Heart? Am I saying that right?
"No, man! That's its slave name. What's the real name of the game?"
- I, I have no idea.
"Combos."
- Man, I suck at those, what, you think I'm a hardcore player? Look at my thumbs. Lookatthem. They are the soft, pink thumbs of a man with a life.
"Okay, but look. See, now you can get the combos, because there's a dedicated 'fly to your enemy' button - so now you can follow attacks up really quickly even if you suck."
- Man, I dunno about thi-
"ROB. THERE'S A BUTTON FOR FLYING."
- What?
"YOU PUSH IT. AND YOU FLY."
- That's pretty cool, I gue-
"THAT'S FUCKING COOL."
- Yeah, I-
"THAT'S AWESOME."
- Okay, it's awesome, but-
"HAVEN'T YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO FLY ROB?"
- I have.
"YOU HAVE."
- If only there were a button...
"THERE IS."
- Alright! Alright, I'll buy it!
