Did anyone get the PC version of Psychonauts? - Page 3

SakSquash · 04-26-2005, 01:30 PM

I'm thinking of calling them and telling them I don't want it anymore. This is just so retarded of them to do.

It doesn't really have anything to do with Majesco either. The PC version has been available since Friday as I've mentioned quite a few times now. I don't know if GameStop and EB ordered too few copies or whatever, but the whole situation is kind of strange.

It would be pretty strange for them to order too few copies of the pc version, when both firms can clearly see that the game has been preordered in huge numbers.

Well at least dvdboxoffice's vbv service finally worked and Still Life is on it's travelling towards my mailbox from Canada right now, if I can't get to play Psychonauts, at least I can soon play Still Life.

And Gamestop seems to have moved the date to 28th...

I wonder when will dvdboxoffice get the game.

Why don't GameStop just change it to "We ain't got a clue" or "Sometime this year, we hope". Nobody seems to know ANYTHING about the PC version. I'm really curious as to what is going on with this game. I don't know if it's intentionally being delayed or what. Not that anybody knows, but it sure would be nice to know! GRRRRRRRRRRR!! And I also wonder why GameSpot is stating that Still Life won't be released until May 2nd, when it's clearly already out in stores!

artwking4 · 04-27-2005, 11:04 AM

If it wasn't for the t-shirt, I wouldn't even have pre-ordered the PC version. I'd just wait for it in stores, happily playing Moment of Silence and Still Life. But at least we know Psychonauts is good, and they didn't release it before the reviews came out (or did they? - I forgot). I'm still irritated, though, that they can't make a firm commitment on a PC release date for once.

CaveBear · 04-27-2005, 11:13 AM

I sort of pre-ordered by going to my GameStop store and "reserving" a copy. They gave me the t-shirt and said they'd call when the game came in, but so far they haven't called yet and I'm really ticked off that they keep pushing the date back one day at a time, as if they really don't have a clue as to when it'll actually be available.

Everyone at Idle Thumbs who has bought the XBOX version loves it, so you're safe with buying Psychonauts.

Thrik · 04-27-2005, 01:35 PM

I emailed GameStop to try and get some light shed on this issue, and they really didn't help at all.

Lives it? I love it, but I'm not such a slut that I would want to live it. Maybe Moos and Jake would want to dress up like Lili and Milla and run around zapping things, but not me. Heh....

SakSquash · 04-27-2005, 02:16 PM

Was I supposed to get a T-shirt when I pre-ordered it? Because I didn't...

Intrepid Homoludens · 04-27-2005, 02:17 PM

You were offered either a t-shirt or a pack of cards for pre-ordering.

Yeah, a shirt, but was I supposed to get it already?

Does that mean your going to change your answer on the "Who's getting the free Psychonauts t-shirt" thread?

EDIT: The stores around here were giving them out as soon as you pre-ordered. So if you didn't get one, I'm assuming they'll just give it to you after the game comes in.

The admin guys on the majesco forums have now stated that it shipped today (27th) and should either be available tomorrow or Friday.

Thrik · 04-28-2005, 03:31 AM

¬¬

The GameStop tracker said it's shipping on the 27th, plus the email I posted above. It's now the 28th. :~

SakSquash · 04-28-2005, 08:49 AM

Well look at that. Now it's the 29th. Who wants to bet that tomorrow it will say 30th?

Look here http://majescoentertainment.com/vbul...p?threadid=745

My PC version is already en ruote. I don't know if this is the first PC game majesco has shipped but they sure screwed it up badly.
