  • You can change. You can.
    Hateboner has nothing to do with wanting to fuck, remember Myrm's for Tongpu/Scrye.

    That's what Scrye, Tongpu and Myr would like you to think

    but anyway, let's rerail
  • Like I said, I don't bother searching too much, and I'm wary of online purchases, so if I can, I'd rather buy retail.

  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    It's sold directly by Amazon, though. Not used or anything.
  • Selling off your preorders...that can't be legal, can it?
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    It can if it's in the contract.

    Unless they sold it to another preorder customer who came in before you, I guess.  Maybe.  I don't know how preorders work--does that mean they're guaranteeing that you'll get a copy on release day?  If so, there should be a "what if" clause to such a guarantee.

    Maybe if they had received more pre-order requests than actual collector's editions in stock, but then they should have at least said that it would take a while before a new shipment of collector's editions came in or something.

    What did Gamestop actually say to you Chagen? And what did you say back?

    Woah woah woah, wait a minute.

    Disgaea 4 has been out since the 6th

    No wonder they sold it off!

    "Disgaea 4 has been out since the 6th

    Ah. Well, looks like you were right this time.

    Yeah, Chagen, what did you expect?

    Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!
    ^^Okay what. *Checks* Hey, you're right.

    Yeah, no store is going to hold a pre-order that long.

    Not that I wouldn't put it past Gamestop to actually sell off someone's order like Chagen implied, with all the ranting people do about them, but in this case it's totally understandable.

    I work at Gamestop, and while I do agree that they do some very not nice things, to think that any company would sell off something a customer paid for and still be a standing establishment and not face legal action, is crazy.

    Okay, it looks like some dumbass didn't pick up his own copy at another Gamestop,so my mom will pick it up on Saturday.

    Also, the $10 pre-order charge can actually be exchanged for credit. I know own Katamari Damacy and We Love Katamari thanks to this.

    Poot dispenser here
    Amazon did get me European copies of Quake IV and Red Alert 2 (with original box art, Twin Towers included, to boot!), but those are the only games I got from them that I actually liked.

    Most of my library is on Steam anyhow.

    ^The fact that you can pick up someone else's pre-order copy sounds plain idiotic. Isn't the point of pre-ordering to guarantee that you have a copy reserved for you on release?
  • The guy didn't pick up his pre-order. His damn fault for not getting it.

    Either that or Gamestop ordered one too many.
  • $80+ per session
    Why didn't YOU pick up YOUR copy?
  • The guy didn't pick up his pre-order. His damn fault for not getting it.
    ...I hope you see the irony here.
  • I do see the irony, I assumed that that would have been obvious.

    Also, my parents were supposed to pick it up, not me.
  • Has friends besides tanks now
    But, as the person who wants the game, it's your job to remind them that you haven't received it yet, isn't it?
  • But they were supposed to pick it up for my birthday.

    It's a Birthday Present. I'm not supposed to know I got it or not.
  • It helps if you don't act so oblivious about it, going as far as calling that person a dumbass and saying it's his/her fault.
  • $80+ per session
    Well, don't get mad at Gamestop for that.
  • I always preorder online, so it gets sent straight to my house. Usually before release date. I got Fable II a WEEK before it came out.
