Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition

There wasn't anything to fall for. It looks exactly the same as it looked when they showed it off 4 months ago.
Ahh, cool. Thanks for letting me know.
It would be stupid that the app would not be compatible and the case would. It will run like shit probably tho.
You sure? Maybe I misremember, but it didn't look so plastic-y then.

Apparently it's pretty hard to assemble this thing the right way:

Ugh, in the unboxing video, it doesn't even fasten to the girl's arm properly. This means it's going to slide up and down my nerdy arms freely.
This is going to be useless now during gameplay, sigh.

HAHA that's so mildly infuriating to see him do it wrong over and over and over again.
It was going to be useless during gameplay no matter how well it fit.

I got money. So I spend it, homie. On whatever the fuck I want. So laugh and hate all you want.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
Neither could I rofl. Obviously I wasn't being serious. I understand how much I am paying for plastic 
Do other C.E.'s get this much hate cause some people like them?
Just curious cause I see a lot of this attitude of trying to downplay the pipboy to make others feel bad/silly for liking it. I mean do other C.E's get a lot of people who downplay them too?

I actually used a debit card, so my elbow is feeling just fine, thanks.
Seriously? That's the standard size for phones right now.. maybe I should cancel..

Yes. I see it ALL the time.
It was only an extra $60; if you can afford to "collect' anything thats not much at all.
Looks pretty much exactly as expected.
"Wow, I REALLY want that CE..."
*CE gets sold out*
"Pfft, whatever, like I'd ever spend money on useless junk..."
It's one way to get over missing an exclusive. I'm sure there are some that genuinely hate the concept of whatever is in the CE early on but then I'm not sure why they stick around the thread and continue to comment on it.

Except for the people that are genuinely annoyed that did pre-order it, only to find it looks like a $10 toy from dealextreme and doesn't seem to fasten to the width of each user's arm.

Cool, there's the cancel button, have fun.
but don't come and unnecessarily bash it. Immature as hell.
Yes lets laugh at people for spending money on things they like. Har har sooo funny?
No it's not...
Yeah but in general those people don't post how they are laughing at the idiots who bought it. Usually they're more angry that it's not what they expected and more are trying to convince others that are getting it they should be angry about it if they are addressing those that are getting/keeping it (vs. just angry at the company for misleading them).

Okay. Sorry for having an opinion as a consumer, then.
It was touted as being able to be used while you play the game, we knew it would probably be uncomfortable to wear for lengthy sessions, but it isn't adjustable - it's junk.
Lol the press kit actually looks awesome.

That would have made for a way better CE imo. The bobble head is just awesome.

collectors will want it since it's such a rare find, even with it looking plastic the fallout fans are hardcore.
I personally love CE , titanfall is my fav nothing beats that.

I haven't had lots of experience with it, but the one CE I have is the MGSV one and the "lol that baby arm is terrible" never really stopped. It's cool enough to me.

Looks the same now as when they showed it at E3... lol you salty.
It just holds the phone in place. Its cosmetic. It looks neat, but functionally I think just using the app on the phone without it being in a holder will be better.
The dials are just for show. Its basically a plastic case for your phone.

Yeah that bobble head is nice!

Now that I'm able to see it in the wild I'm sort of relieved that I cancelled my preorders for two of those things.
What being PC gamer has anything to do with how thick forearms you have?

Yes it's plastic but I don't think it looks cheap at all. If you weren't expecting it to be plastic then I think you should readjust your expectations.

I expected it to be heavy and metal just like they are in real life. /s

Cancelled mine, but not due to the build quality. Just damn expensive for something to sit on the shelf next to...all my other useless CE items.
It hurt to press that button.

Kind of feeling the same way. I mean even the IGN guys were like, well it's a cool thing to put on display but you'd probably not want to use it.
I think I'll wait until I get it and then sell it to somebody if I decide I don't want it.
Disappointing but not surprising. Would've been the kind of thing that would push it over to amazing though.
And I think it's fair to at least have wanted at least a matte or faux metallic look to the thing. Just plain plastic is kind of weak, and pure metal would've been... uhh, Work Out Edition?
