7 days. Yep. Next Tuesday is the official release date.

Still hoping SE ships the CE's early and I get it early or something. razz

[REGINA SPEKT0R]

omg if you get yours on Friday I will destroy U emotion_donotwant

though I guess if anyone in this subforum deserves to get it early it's you, seemingly biggest XIII fan

At the very least I hope I get it on time. Digital River has a bad reputation for these kinds of things. :c

I just want to know how many innocents I need to sacrifice in order to win the CE preorder draw for that lovely, lovely PS3.

Because I will sacrifice all the innocents.

So, like, two people.

I drove past the shopping centre in town yesterday and there was a stock truck and my mind immediately jumped to "I WONDER IF LIGHTNING RETURNS IS IN THAT TRUCK"

God I'm desperate for some retailer to break the street date so everyone can begin selling it... idk how it works in America but here if a store starts selling a product before the official release date all other retailers have to be granted permission to begin selling as well to prevent loss of fair competition.

But I mean I guess if I'm going to use up all my broken-street-date-luck I'd prefer somewhere starts selling FFXHD a week early. God damn would I prefer the hell out of that.

No shipping notifs for the CE yet. Guess it won't be shipping until just before the 11th. :c

Lara Croft DLC Costume for Lightning.

[Super Stardom]

Ew. I forgot the Beauty that is Lara Croft belongs to Eidos.

At least the outfit suits her?

Anyway, some people are claiming they got emails saying their CE has shipped. So far, all of the people that said this had 5-7 day shipping or w/e. Nothing for me, yet, but I do have 1-2 day shipping. :L

It's true. A friend of mine began freaking out because he didn't have the money in his bank account to pay for it and it was already being shipped. I'm awaiting for Friday when I get paid and see how my finances go for LR. If all is well, I'm getting the Collector's Edition. If not, it will be the Steelbook Limited Edition one from Gamestop.

LIGHTNING AS LARA CROFT. OMG.

A battle picture for you all, using Lara's pickaxe as a weapon:


@ Super Stardom: I'm just glad it's not referencing the TR: Angel of Darkness. That was an abomination of a game that I refuse to believe exist. (The only other game to win that title was Devil May Cry 2.)

Has anyone preordered the strategy guide to Lightning Returns? I hear some places wanted $40 for the Collector's Edition one when you can get it for $25 on Amazon.com.

Comes with the "Art of War" DLC. FYI~ ♥

The worst I saw was my sister when Jak 3 was coming out wondering if it was in Gamestop yet. The guy said she was two days early. She pouted and he said "I will however, let you hold it and oogle the case for 5 minutes."

My sister was holding Jak 3 two days before launch. ^^

But yeah, I walked into Gamestop and the guy looked at me as I was watching one of the LR promotional videos on their TVs and goes "You're the Final Fantasy addict. I can tell!" "What?" "YOUR MUG SAYS IT ALL."

I preordered the CE Guide as well from Amazon since it was discounted.

[REGINA SPEKT0R]

I like the Lara DLC. There seems to be a bit of controversey over SE selling out blah blah blah but I think it's cool that they're offering OPTIONAL DLC as fanservice. I mean if it was a garb included with the base game that might be iffy but as a DLC outfit I think it's pretty cool. I do however wish it was TR: Legend's Lara. Legend remains the best TR game.

I love the idea that you're notorious among the employees of your local gamestop lol

[Super Stardom]

Is the collector's edition guide in a limited run like ffxiiis or an unlimited like ffxiii-2? Because I own both and wanna own the third but idk if it's necessary to buy it now.

I don't know. :c

I honestly don't believe it'll stick around since LR is so very unpopular.
