I've been going mostly PS4, unless I see some reason that a game is more of a Vita game than PS4. All things equal I just kinda prefer console.

I really hope LRG is able to expand to Nintendo systems and Xbox. I'm starting to worry that the PS route is all we'll see for a long while. Every platform has games stuck in digital releases though. Just hope platform owners will be easier to work with some how...

I still havent bought anything from them but I hope I can get 2 copies of CSH on both platforms. One to keep sealed and one to open. Also interested in Volume.

Unlikely, unless Nintendo and Microsoft allows them to produce the amount they want. Sony is way easier to work with in terms of print run

Out of interest, does anyone know (or can LRG answer) about whether they've tried talking to Arc System Works? There's a few of their games they could get out on Vita (Damascus Gear/Fantasy Hero/Magical Beat).

I know the demand wouldn't be as big as things like Atelier or Ray Gigant, but it'd be cool to see.

Cool to see, but bottom of the list for me. They're terrible games.

Got my Octodad order today. It's the second straight order from then where I paid extra for the box and it wasn't even taped shut. Not even a single piece of tape.

Got lucky twice but not feeling like rolling the dice further. Anyone else see this?

My friend ordered for the two of us, and he said the exact same thing... I don't understand why they wouldn't tape it.

No update on the Fatal Frame situation?

They've not announced any new games other than the two PS4/Vita Sekai Project titles (Fault Milestone/World End Economica).

I'm sure it'll be massive news if they manage to grab it and you certainly won't miss it.

Aww shitballs, completely forgot about Xeodrifter...oh well, I only have myself to blame. Gotta remember to put a reminder in my phone or something. One of the few downsides to not owning a smartphone I suppose.

I saw this as it was playing out. Really ridiculous. It's very hard to do what LRG is doing and people with entitlement complexes are only making it worse.

This entire gig is a precious gift to collectors that wouldn't exist without a massive amount of goodwill. It should be returned to LRG at all times.

Did you already email us?

I need that proof for our fulfillment center, this is a serious issue that lacks common sense!

They do a good job for the most part, but not taping boxes is driving me crazy!

Oh shit I chose a box this time.

RIP my games

Please fix this before shipping Xeodrifter D:

We will!

Honestly if this keeps happening we are going to hire people that just do shipping in house. We are really shocked boxes arrived without tape...

Also thanks for not getting made at us about Josh's tweets. They are just his feelings not the companies and those emails were truly getting out of hand and downright ugly.

That's the CS business for you.
I'm sure you know the vast majority of your customers are happy about the service and products.

I agree with this. People are far more likely to complain than praise, it's human nature. I'm guilty of it myself. I gripe about loose disks, but the good you do far outweighs some minor issues. I'd take loose disks and untaped boxes over nothing at all, as would most of your fan base. There will always be people that you can't please though, in any job, especially online.

Just keep up the work you're doing.

On the topic of people not praising, I actually just started playing some SMRPG over the weekend and love it. The mechanics aren't all that complex, which is OK for me, but I love the humor and references. It's like you've condensed my childhood into a game. So many laughs and good feelings. The music alone evokes the same feelings. It might not be for everyone, but I feel like it was made for me. Thanks!

Well, I just took the plunge on Oddworld Vita for £50.

Although I begrudge paying so much, I really really want it and it's the cheapest I've seen it. Since Octodad cost me £31 including bank charges to order directly from LRG and Oddworld was $5 more expensive too, I guess it could've been worse.

That's a very nice find actually. And when you decide to sell it down the road it's gonna have increased a nice amount so don't think about what could of been, I'm in the same boat as you are.

Sell it down the road? The implication that I'm keeping it sealed?

Nah. I know it seems wasteful, but I'm all about opening these games, installing them on my console and playing them! I guess that makes me a collector in the sense that I'm buying them because I like the physical media, but I'm not interested in keeping them sealed and selling them on.

Even un-sealed I think LRG games we'll remain very valuable anyway

So do I. Of the games I want to play I buy an extra copy so I can open one and keep the other one sealed. Still think an unsealed will sell for quite a lot too.

I hope we don't get a month with three games anytime soon. As in, three games for the same platform.

It seems like Breach & Clear PS4 is coming same day as Soldner-X which is now delayed.
And Soldner-X is still on for later in July.

So that'd make 3 PS4 titles in July no?

I hope not, they really need to try and stick to having these on one day to save on shipping, this is expensive as it is and if it keeps going up people will likely bail on the idea of 'full sets'

Not only to save on shipping but also the handling fees for custom charges. A whopping $11.6 in Sweden.
