vulcan_sniper Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 To get this game, i will do as necessary including the following: *camp out overnight in a tree near gamestop in order to get the first copy (screw the scout trooper action figure) *in case someone does get a copy before me, come prepared with 150$ in order to negotiate the game from said person *car-jack a vehicle in order to get back to my X-box faster for more gameplay (even though im not allowed to drive yet) *create a completely danger-free room just for my battlefront game in order to ensure full and complete safety for this game * monitor Gamestop before purchase with concealed surveiliance cameras in order to be sure exactly which time the game is purchasable *stop all who may get to the game before me with any means necesary *live off stay-awake pills and purchase ulimited X-box live support to exceed maximum gameplay naturally, all of these i will not achieve, but the world must know how determined i am to get this game.

THE BADGER: Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 uhh.. Why don't you just preorder like I did and have it shipped express. I'll get mine in my mailbox on 9/22/04. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulcan_sniper Posted July 31, 2004 Author Share Posted July 31, 2004 That could work, but it would make a crummy thread to just talk about that. Contributions to my first post anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sup3rsnail Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Not buying till I see a playable demo. Currently, I've got Doom 3 preordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Dark Jedi Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Originally posted by sup3rsnail Not buying till I see a playable demo. Why?From what ive seen I think that Star Wars:Battlefront is going to be one of the best Star Wars games ever until an even better one comes out;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoopknacker Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 There will be a playable demo for the PC likely before the demo ships with the DVD. Nothing in writing just a hunch. I will also play the demo first. This because I thought that the StarWars mod for BF42 was totally going to rock but then it was just so quirky and odd (did not have the StarWars feel) that I said forget it. I am sure that you will not need riot gear in order to get your copy. I saw the humor in the post, some people dont always see it and it was funny.

Doomie Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 I'll just buy it, I won't get the first one, i don't wanan get killed... I haven't preordered, just gonna go to the store, wait till Hex kills the poor guy with the first copy and buy my own... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaebginn Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 I reserved mine at gamespot. so now I gotta work on hooking my ps2 to the internet and getting a headset. I'm gonna ask my parents to drive me to the store a day in advance, so I dont spring it on them. Then I'm gonna get the game, and play single player for a;most two days straight. Then I'm gonna go outside and get some fresh air, then I'm gonna do my chores, then play some more online, then friday, play iwth my clan. maybe b4 then.

Whoopknacker Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 I think that I will first go online. I know everyone says NO NO you have to play single player first. Well everyone else is gonna be a noob too. I figure there will be a few pilots flying into the ATATs trying to bring them down and that will be fine. Everyone will be learning together. We just dont need people cussing out other players for messing up. If I need help I will look over the instructions. Sometimes they have some helpful tips.

RoxStar Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Stores haven't been advetising the crap out of it like we've seen with Halo 2, Doom 3, and the like. I'lll just play the demo and buy it whenever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 It may just be me, but it always seems like people that pre-order a game get it after people that just go to the store and pick it up the first day... Anyone else find this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can go to gamespot.com, ebgames.com. IMO you should get it from Best Buy. I have found that they sell games the cheapest that are in high demand, only thing is you have to wait til the Sunday ad post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE BADGER: Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 lol, no you won't. Get ready to make some phone calls. uh, yeah I will. I selected express 1 day delivery. They ship on 9\21 and I get it on 9\22. And I've already called to find this out, and emailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaebginn Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 well, badger, watch out. Wal mart lieks to mess with you. Believe me. Wal mart makes me so angry. I mean, I once tried to return a game, and they wouldnt let me, cause it was rated M and I am under 17, I tried to return it, not buy it. And geez, their soda machines jam so much. Man, I hate wal amrt. I mean, jeez. They are so anal about everything. Dont even try sword fighting with their toy lightsabers. Or they will shoo you out. and dont even try putting shaving cream on your face and pretending you have a beard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE BADGER: Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 is the thing he said true ,everybody?why would it be that way? thanks I got my cheaper by preordering it. And I'll have it in my mailbox the 22 of Sept. I won't have to go to the store and risk them being sold out. I will have my copy no doubt. Oh and i didn't go with walmart, I went with estarland.com they were cheaper. And I could trade in a couple of games and get it even more cheaper.

GhostfacedKilla Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Im not downing the new swbf game but it could have one giant flaw that makes it suck.....so this is why i say slowdown ppl b/c it might suck. Just like Driv3r everyone hyped it up for munths and months till it dropped and when it did it was almost complete crud. So word to the wise guys wait at least for online reviews and magazine reviews b4 wasting your hard earned cash... Me ill wait and wont worry if I suck because all of you had tons of more practice than me. because ill still be having fun with a great purchase.. p.s. socom 2 is the best online title you could ever own. get it!!!!
