Scavenger Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 I live in europe btw, and release is 24th september, and thats it today.. Well, waited entire afternoon to pick up my copy of SWBF on pc after school, and guess what happens, not a single retail store in our town/province has got the pc version, but DO have PS2/XBOX versions, what gives? anyone else got the same thing? most stores said the next delivery would be next wednesday, damnit!
st.jimmy Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 i live in the uk and i found that to i went round the shops to see if i could get it cheap no one had it in the end i went and asked and the counter and they had it.
Scavenger Posted September 24, 2004 Author Posted September 24, 2004 I did the same thing, no results...
ExcessNeo Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 well i went to my local special reserve this morning and they missed yesterdays delivery so ill get my copy at 5pm (they told me to come back at 5pm) perhaps the same applies you guys
rut-wa jodar Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 I heard that alot of places in the UK have not received stock the PC version yet . gameplay.com seem tohave it instock, if anyone is interested.
Scavenger Posted September 24, 2004 Author Posted September 24, 2004 I dont understand, shouldnt all versions be delivered at once?

ExcessNeo Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Originally posted by sup3rsnail The PC version blows ass. Get the PS2 or Xbox version. i do not enjoy this sort of game on console due to the control style, also PS2 and XBOX have online probs
Scavenger Posted September 25, 2004 Author Posted September 25, 2004 Originally posted by sup3rsnail The PC version blows ass. Get the PS2 or Xbox version. ty for sharing that with us, but even if you dont like it, do we pc guys care? NO! dont post here then!
DavetheFo Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Yeah, im having problems with my PS2 copy, its dispatched, but wont be here till monday now. And all teh rental copies are gone. Some week im having.
st.jimmy Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 Originally posted by ExcessNeo i do not enjoy this sort of game on console due to the control style, also PS2 and XBOX have online probs i second that fps games are not the same with out mouse and keybord, plus pc version will get mods.
Cormix Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 I live on Naboo near Theed and I got my copy Sept 20th at about 11pm,the merchants here had em for every system and PC for only like 25 credits. "These blast marks, too accurate for a controller. Only a mouse and keyboard are so precise"
Zoroaster Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 I went down town to get it on friday afternoon after a nice hard nights drinking. Anyway, 4 of the 5 stores I went to had sold out before 1pm apparently. I felt pretty lucky to get it in the end. I had ordered it through amazon but I figured waiting another 4 days just wasn't worth skimping on a fiver. Eitherway, I got it from a Game store inside debenhams (dun ask me I think its weird too), and found it quite decent although a little arcadey. Incidentally, most places that aren't selling it have probably either sold out or haven't received the delivery. You have to bear in mind, most places have really cut back on the amount of PC stock they store as they think console games sell more. When the fact is PC gamers tend to be more select about the games they buy... I think so at least...
Hermie Posted September 25, 2004 Posted September 25, 2004 The exact same thing have happened to me [norway], everyone says "Umm, according to this list we should have it, but we dont.". Worst part is, no store knows when they are going to get it, nearest Ive come is Tuesday or Friday.
