WAaaa! why me? <sob>

Platapus · 03-22-07, 06:46 AM

I just got an E-mail from Amazon.com informing me that the delivery of my copy of SH4 might be delayed until early April! <sob>

I think I will throw myself in front of a parked car!!

So to you Ladies and Gentlemen who already have the game I hope you are enjoying it <sniff>

Maybe once in a while you could post some information on the game <sniff>

Or perhaps a screenshot <sniff>

So I don’t feel completely left out <sniff>

I will be thinking of all my SubSim buddies having fun playing the game… that I don’t have yet <sniff>

<chin trembling>

fixed for text colour

Dude, you've written in black, this is not good for people using the 'Smark Dark' forum display.

Anywho, I feel your pain. My suggestion to pass the time is to compile a list of bugs, CTDs and other annoying things and what triggers them. That way when you get the game you can actually play without being interupted.

@Platapus
I feel your pain Brother.

I checked my Amazon account (UK) just now and my copy has not yet been dispatched, making it unlikely they'll make the target of delivery on the 23rd. Maybe this means my order has been delayed too.

Perhapse Neal will post his eagerly antcipated review, so we can atleast take solace in his words.

Just checked my Amazon uk account, exactly the same

. The next merchant that comes my way is really going to get it

I just found out that if you compose your posting in Word and copy it over it posts it in black.

Abject apologies and appropriate groveling.

Well I may not have the game, but I learned something new about posting in this forum.

Look at the positive side: By then the game will be fully functional

@Hobnailboot

Could you Private Message me when your copy arrives? Have you downloaded the patch yet?

Go to any Game shop 2morrow and buy it. (you could try it tonight >12am as Game stays open for the PS3 official launch - at least in Scotland they announced that - been to my local Game shop 30mins ago).

Just cancel your Amazon.co.uk order, it's unlikely it will arrive by 2morrow morning.

I just placed my order with Ubi.com should get it by Tuesday. I am going to cancel my Amazon order. I never liked doing business with Amazon and I won't in the future. The local stores here can't tell me when it will be back in stock

.

Oh well I can always play sh3 and pretend that they are Americans....no can't see that workin.

The only reason I used them was to support this website but I would rather make another donation direct than put up with Amazon.com.

Friends don't let friends order from Amazon.com
