I'm thinking of trading in some games for Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance, just have to decide what I'm willing to give up. Splinter Cell is AMAZING!!!! LOL, but I suck at stealth, keep getting discovered... heavy feet I guess.

Weren't you going to get the new bond?

Oh yeah, damn... get UC, it's crazy online! Totally Halo on drugs.

Stillmatik, I doubt you'll get NFL because you weren't a Beta tester. They'll probably ask you for proof of purchase or do a swap. Freddy was lucky because I know that soon after he called, people were no longer receiving the Retail version anymore. And the demo no longer works (I think) because the Beta period is over.

My brother and I finally decided to hold off on both MK and Bond. Apparently DOA3 still rocks all as the 3D fighter on X-Box. Yup I still play it all the time! Lei Fang!!! Lei Fang!!! Shweeet!

Went into EB yesterday and got a big dissappointment... Steel Battalion didn't arrive. It arrives today.... they promised.

Did ya check your friends list? I added you already.



One of my favorite things to do in SC: Using the rifle in sniper mode.............. HEAD SHOT! [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

Yup the big old 3 piece 40 button controller with 3 foot pedals. $249 + tax. Totally sold-out in North America.

A lot of guys are crying now, they have to wait at least till mid-december or even the spring for the next possible shipment/stocking from Capcom.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! As I was typing this, EB called me to go pick it up!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL, I'm still at work, the waiting pains me so.

I know EB fairview has 1 Steel Battalion because someone cancelled their pre-order.

TOTAL price: $286.35

No shelf stock anywhere. If you are considering it, you'd have to be pretty hyped about mech games though. Pure simulation. It scored 9.5 ++ in all reviews I've read. The controller even won an award from Popular Science Magazine.

I now offically have no more budget for games except the following which I've reserved:

Capcom Vs. SNK 2 EO (live enabled)
Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 (live enabled)
DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball (bouncy bouncy! [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG] )

After these, no more games till... I estimate March 2003.
