Nintendo Wii.

Strange my kids hog the Wii like it's crack.I'm just a bit of an addict,i can stop anytime.

This game is spectacular!!

That's seems to be the consensus. I think we're just weird. My kids liked watching me play Bioshock and Bouncer seems to be their favorite video game character so I guess that speaks volumes.

The $25 gift card isnt only for preorders, preorders do get that collector's coin though.

My TRU didn't get the game in as well...well atleast when I had left they didn't (130pm). So many people acting like ***** to us, and a few cussing going on as well.

The gift card is an insane promotion! Pay $50 for a game most would get anyway and get half your money back??

EDIT: They shouldn't cuss at the good folks working there. They're at the mercy of the shipping company. It's clearly the shipper's fault. And besides... getting half your money back? Come on.

The manager at the local store handled the crowd very well, answering questions and inviting people to call him personally the next morning, even offering to hold one for someone there who couldn't make it in until Thursday.

It makes no sense to curse out the Toys R Us guys when it's so clearly the shipper's fault. And besides... get half your money back? Come on.

Might of read your post wrong, but I wasnt the one cussing, I was the one getting cussed at. And then when the other guy came in for his shift he shared the wealth.

One of the dumber things I remember being said was that we should sell them (the people that showed up yesterday morning) the preorder copies for their incovience. Which I through was just horrid since we had just finished telling them (me and the manager) that we had recieved no copies of the game yet.

But yeah, the $25 gift card is a great deal, it even had some of the managers there confused as to why a $25 GV was offered. Plus if you preordered you also got the collectors coin and a free wii mote glove (which I have 3 of already).

Rereading it, it is confusing. I was trying to be commiserating. But now I see it could seem like I was adding scolding to your being cussed at. Sorry about that.

I meant something like: "They shouldn't cuss at the good folks working there. You're at the mercy of the shipping company..."

I gotta go back tomorrow. Just now checked the coin in its sleave to find no coin. I'm just picking up the game for my girlfriend who's away 'til Monday on a business trip (attn. SoCal ladies! ) and I don't know if she wants the coin or not, but she might. We didn't get a Wii mote glove for pre-ordering here. Weird how there's variations to the offers. Still, like you, we don't need more wii gloves.

EDIT: I found the coin in the folding presentation box packaging. It had slipped loose.

I'd be really worried if my Wii glowed blue. But perhaps some penicillin will clear it up...

I think I needed stronger medicine for it than penicillin.medic

Do you have the Zapper? You gotta play that game with the Zapper right?

You don't have to play with the zapper, and without it, the game is quite difficult. Don't know how much easier it would be with the zapper. I'm on the third level, out of a supposed 10 levels (or how many they say online). The game shows you parts of all the previous games in the same settings with a little bit of backstory cut scenes in between, which is nice. great game and a must have for any true RE fan.

17 stars in galaxy. INSANE FUN!!

I really want to get this game, but I get seasick on a cruise ship. All the moving around and spinning is worrying me. Is it really bad, or does it just look bad?

 

[OSCORP]

Couldn't tell ya, i don't get sick from video games.But there is lots of what you mentioned LOTS!!!

I say get it,it's worth a trip to the toilet now and then

Oh that's not too good. It seems well worth it.

It may be a little disorienting when you first see it. But like OSCORP I don't get sick from video games either.
Sometimes I do get turned around so much that I lose track of where Mario is. On most planets when he goes upside down your screen still stays the same view though. But other times the camera does tend to move with him to make it rightside up.

Isn't it!? I have 33 stars now, and the galaxies keep getting harder. I may give up soon

 

[OSCORP]

Yeah it's a classic and should not be missed.(in 10 years people will be like "is the new mario game as good as galaxy's was")
