Its digital only? Man that sucks. I wonder if the people that release these games realize all the sales they lose cause of digital only items. Hell, just right here, 3 people who would buy are not cause of digital only.

Not only that...they're already making a fucking physical CE for the UK -so- it's just us that's getting screwed out of a physical release  >:(

I mean...I could always import it *BUT* fuck 'em if they've already worked-out everything in order to make a physical release -and- just decided not give it to us!

I broke down and bought the Street Fighter 25th Anniversary. It got down to $50. So, I finally grabbed it. Now, what am I going to do with that big ass box of kick assery?

Sort of. The UK release has a box & some physical extras, but the game still isn't on a disk - the set includes a code for you to download the digital game.

Still, if that set was available over here I'd buy the game day-1 just for that Amano poster.   :(

Thanks for the clarification...I didn't know that; still wouldn't get it in that case.

Who knows, though - stranger things have happened (like me owning Journey (IMO, an over-hyped & digital-only game) on a disc), etc...

I totally agree with you on Journey.  Never did "get" that game - thought people calling it that year's GOTY were nuts. 

I definitely prefer physical games when that option's available, but if digital is all there is I won't let that stop me.  CoL looks amazing, so I'll definitely own it at some point - it's just that with digital, there aren't any supply issues to be concerned with so unless I was going to play it right away it doesn't make any sense to get it at release.  ;)

I've got a Craigslist deal working.  That's kind of a pre-order, right?
I'll let ya'll know how it goes tonight when I get home.  Cross your fingers that I don't get raped/defiled or murdered; and that the deal goes through. 

I've got to do a bit of driving, and I'm meeting at Walmart in another town at 5:00.  Wish me luck

Meh...

After looking & reading up on it a little more + the fact that I'm a sucker for a good rogue-like/dungeon-crawler and, that I also enjoy supporting the Vita (and more Japanese-ish types of games & RPG's on/for it:) - cemented by the fact that it's cheap enough that it would be easy enough to write-off & not be too angy w/ myself for getting it...even if it *does* suck  :P ==>

I'm gonna go ahead & pre-order a copy of Mind Zero  8)

See, your mind is just in the wrong place.  :(

All I saw was "free".  ;)

I know it released today but I pre-ordered Child Of Light on GameStop and I have not yet found the time to get the game.


Please check out the games I have for sale.
