Usually when one preorders a game, ebgames.com has it at your door on the game's release date AT THE LATEST, and won't charge you until it's shipped.

So for one of biggest releases Soul Calibur 2 I ran to them first, thinking I'd get the same treatment.

Well the bastards took my money last Friday and they haven't even sent it, pissing on my chance to get it on time!

FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes um hello...idiot is it? The official release date is the 27th. The ship date is the 26th. THEY GOT IT ON THE 26TH. So...if you dont get it tomorrow, then you can raise hell. Dismissed.

Oh, I will be opening at gamestop tomorrow (well it's actually today...) around 10am so ill be playing all the versions before we open.

Oh I also own f-zero. do you?

Fuck you nbrid, I got Bloody Roar and Wind Waker the day BEFORE it was officially released. Your working at a video games store gives you a bias and I'm not one of your dumbass customers, retailers have those fuckers early, much more so a damn online retailer's warehouse.

Fuck you and oh yeah, I just tore the wrapper off of F Zero GX, I'll weigh in on it later.

Gives me a bias? If anything it tells me when the game should be in...I mean...yeah I know how games are shipped and stuff. Sometimes a game may come in early, especially something unpopular that doesnt have to meet demands of tons of buyers. IE, the games you normally buy. This is the biggest game all year. It shipped early to maybe a few stores and most of them were on the west coast.

Enjoy f-zero

Since when is F-Zero the biggest game of the year? God I hope not...

Get out, and take your Sacagawea dollars with you! I'll give you 'til three. One!

[nbrid]

bone, he was complaining about SC2. Did you not see the first post? Anyway, THAT is the biggest game of the year. Whether or not some other game comes along and sells more, it got the most hype...like ever.

[torkworld]

Okay, I perordered with ebgames for Mario Kart, the release date is 11/19, the proposed ship date is 11/17.

Am I right or wrong nbrid?

So when I come on here mad asking where my game is in December you won't give me some PR crap that you're trained to say to stupid customers.

[nbrid]

hehehe. You know what they "trained" us to do when talking to customers? Be nice and helpful. Yeah Im all that and a bag of chips. I go the extra mile to help some customers but I dont treat EVERYONE like a customer. Hell, I try to treat the cool customers as making a first impression with a new friend. If I say another sappy sentence I am going to die.


Anyway, proposed release is the 18th. If it comes out later, it's because of some internal problem with the company or a delay by Nintendo.

What's with all the hatred for good ol hybrid?

[BoneStormer]

Maybe it's because we're all sick and tired of your GC bashing Mister! Someone comes in looking at the GC... and you do your damndest to lure them to PS2 or even Xbox. I'm sorry if the best console out there isn't good enough for you, but that doesnt give you the right to cost Nintendo business!

And I still think as far as GC is concerened, Mario Kart Double Dash is the biggest game of the year.

[nbrid]

after zelda, yes it is. Although i think mario kart will be bigger in that more people that dont already own a gc, will get one for mario kart while most people that got zelda already had one. This is of course due to in part to the system price drop.

[torkworld]

On this thread there was a link to a site that listed ebgames.com coupon codes!

Course there weren't many for eb, but there were for other sites.

Torkboard gets the same bland ads most of the time, regardless of the subject of the posts.

Remember this?

Yeah I guess at gamestop we got some email that Mario Kart was coming in for a tuesday release. Then again, some people over the internet have already gotten theirs...stupid east coast.

What's that saying... Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me... fool me 3x and I'm a fucking dumb ass!


And Stupid midwest, I won't get MKDD until Wednesday most likely.. so fuck you and your, umm, East Coast? Wait....

[torkworld]

What sucks is, it's not a site thing (i'm getting the rest of my shit), all my games come on time except the big ones!

Fuck em, I'm on the east coast too.
