Default My Rant About today

I just need to get this off my chest. This is the only time I will speak of this. Today When I called GameStop for my Reserve I am told they will not NOW have it until Thursday. WTF? So I call every single EB games and GameStop within 50 miles. All of them are tomorow.

Ok, now the real kicker. I go to Target they have none. So I go to BestBuy. None on the shelves. I ask if they have any out back. Yes we do we have 3. YIPPEEEE.... But I can't sell them to you. They are not released to the 22nd. WTF.

Rant over. Have a nice night. I guess I will pick it up tommorow now.

My local EB Games had stock yesterday in Sydney, I was playing last night just long enough to thank god I bought STALKER at the same time.

SH4 is full of bugs that will need to be ironed out before I get too excited, I hear there's a patch coming! Stalker on the other hand seems to be the real deal no patch required, graphics, story line and atmospherics are amasing. Easily a good choice to while away the time required to 'fix' SH4

I had the exact same experience and was even told this by a little Wench at a Houston area Gamestop: (prepare yourself it is very offensive)

"Well we cant guarantee that such obscure titles will be in on time."
