Bought the pre-sale NWN2. Called two days prior to the release date & asked if they were going to have em in.
"Certainly. That supposed to come out on 11/1/06 ans we shoudl have them in stock!"
I go across town on my lunch break expecting to pick up my copy. Did I? Nope. Guy tells me that the truck probably won't be in until 2pm. grumble grumble frikin frakin. ok fine.
Go back that night. Did I get my game. Nope. Wasn't on the truck. Call back today. Day after release date. Certainly they will ahve it in. Do they. Nope. Guy tells me they have like 8 whole copies that are on order and they will probably either be in this Sat or maybe next Tuesday. WTF?! I tell him to kiss my ass & hang up. Call the Gamestop across the street. They have em in. But only if you pre-ordered. Son of a bitch. I call back & get the floor manager and give him a piece of my mind. He listens to me a second finds out what I'm looking for & puts me on hold. Except he hangs up instead.
I call back. On hold again. Of course. Finally get through & ask why the hell they would sell a pre-release of the game and not have it in the store on the day of release particularly when the competition across the road does have it. They blame it on warehouse crap. They would be happy to refund my pre-order if I want. Which would be great except the only way I can get a copy of it anywhere else seems to be if I pre-ordered. ARRRRGGGGG.
I'm not really having a game goob fit to play the game. I would like to but I currently have 2-3 other games I'm in the middle of so it's not like the end of the world. It's the point of the thing. If I pre but something I want it the day it comes out damn it.
