You'll have forgotten you ordered it by the time it arrives! Hopefully I won't have any problems when Double Fine ship mine.

As I mentioned in my previous post, it could be as late as Wednesday. Looks like GameStop is the LAST place to get the darn game in!

Dogen to GameStop: "You make me so mad!"
Coach Oleander to GameStop: "Dang, my bowels move more than you do, pokey!"

Next it might a good idea to order a game from anywhere other than Gamestop.

EBGames shipped mine last tuesday, and I got it on friday (3 day shipping). You should really consider dumping Gamestop and going for EBGames. That's what I did.

They said "it ships tomorrow." I can't really switch since there is no EB games in my town, but gamestop is right up the street. When i'm home though, I usually go to eb games.

YES YES YES! Got my money back from GameStop and got the game from EB Games instead!

I FINALLY GOT IT!!

This was the result from calling GameStop and being told the game wouldn't be in until Friday!

Oh man, that better not be true. I wish I could do that, but my reserve money is gamebucks, so they'd get it anyway!

It arrived today!!! Woooo!

The UPS guy brought it to my workplace at the post office.
The shirt looks *interesting*
And I can feel the exciment already, there was electricity in the air when I first touched the gamebox.

Installing as we speak.
Incredibly fast delivery time, shipped from Texas on 29th of April.


EDIT: Yay, two disc 2's in the box, no Psychonauts fun for me...

I still haven't gotten it Yikes, about the disc 2s :O Man, I hope that doesn't happen to me. Returning the game to Canada would not be an option.

Psst! Bittorrent!

Oh man this sucks. That's what puzzles me, in this day and age, why doesn't every developer use a DVD ROM. When the game requires a $1000+ machine to run, it's not much to ask for if you install a 40 dollar DVD ROM. Then problems like these won't arise.

PS: Do you think Majesco actually package the games manually themselves?

So get this, I called them today to ask if it was in, and they said no of course, even though they told me yesterday it would be, so I asked them why it never seems to be in when they and the website keep telling me it will be, and they said "I don't know, call back tomorrow" **CLICK**


Growl....

I was gettin' BS like that from EBGames a week ago. The call went something like this:

Joe: Hey, can you tell me if you guy's got Psychonauts in on PC yet?
EB: Lemme check....nope, should be in tomorrow.
Joe: Can you confirm that? I've kinda been told that every day this week....
EB: Well, I don't know! Come down here and check it yourself!
*CLICK*

I'm sick of EBGames and Gamestop. From now on, I'm only buying from GameCrazy. Most of the time, they can order PC games for you even if they don't typically sell them in stores. To hell with lousy customer service!

Maybe if we got half the vacation time you did, we would be nicer people


Anyway, still don't have it. Am I the only one left who doesn't have it?

You and Kolzig, although Kolzig has the box and the CD's just not in the right order.
