I received an Uncharted 4 today that had a rattling disk, so LRG isn't alone.

Yeah, I've noticed with other PS4 games too. Last one was the LE for Blazblue Chronophantasma Extend that I got a few days ago. I remove the art book, "cool", I remove the game case, *rattling sounds*, "f*ck..."

Please don't blame LRG for the flimsy cases used by PS4 games. They're cool dudes and don't deserve the fall for this stuff.

Damn, my PS4 Futuridium copy had pressure applied to the box (I assume during the shipping) and it created minor rips on the cover art :(


Any word on the updated Breach & Clear cover with the numbering? I wonder if I could get a Futuridium cover as well?

My PS4 and Vita copies of Oddworld turned up today, sadly another with a loose disc which is annoying (not that it's supposed to but the plastic protector didn't help it either). Guess I'll have to order a box next time which hopefully would prevent it.

I’m guessing we will get Lost Sea in July.

Eastasiasoft, on their Facebook page, is anticipating a simultaneous July release for the Xbox One, PS4 and PC

So unless the physical version for the PS4 is releasing later than the digital, then I would assume July.

Think it was actually said that we'd probably get Lost Sea/Soldner around then and they'd be on sale at the same time since neither of them share platforms with each other.

Ok, I hadn’t heard anything about July for either game. Well that will be interesting if done on the same day.

Not sure how I feel about that as I want both. I do feel if they do that, it will make it easier for those who want Lost Sea, as I believe Soldner-X 2 will be the more sought after one.

I imagine LRG has already contacted Yacht Club Games but they are still "looking into" a Vita release of Shovel Knight. I bet you guys could help them!

I have it on the Wii U already but the more excuses to replay it, the better. That's the game that got retro right.

They've already found other solutions to do physical releases on other platforms, so why would they turn to LRG for the Vita release?

Because no retailers will stock Vita games and especially not indie games? The game has also cooled down on the market and isn't the hottest thing anymore.

Not really sure what U&I Entertainment even is but that was Yacht Club's distribution partner for Shovel Knight. What says this partner wants to take risks with a retail release for a "dead" console? If they do, why didn't they back then when it was released for everything?

It's also possible that LRG can actually offer them a better deal than U&I with their 70/30 profit approach in favor of the dev. LRG offers a (depending on size) low-risk print with high profit margins.

The math doesn't adding for them doesn't mean no retailers will stock Vita or indie games.

It's been a week and my "Futuridium" hasn't shipped yet. Should I talk to someone or something or no worries....?
Click to expand...

Don't think any of them have shipped. Thought the distribution center was supposed to mean they shipped out faster originally. But now thinking that meant once they start shipping it should be faster to get all orders shipped out.

Edit: Nevermind didn't pay attention to above posts of people getting their copies already. So yeah what is going on? I'm in Canada but I thought the distribution center was supposed to mean non-US orders went out just as soon now?

Yeah, I mean, if they can get Amazon to take in stock (and they do still offer quite a bit of Vita games) that should already be sufficient most likely...?
Click to expand...

U&I Entertainment and Yacht Club games passed on publishing the game for the Vita already. Maybe there was a reason for this.

All I'm saying is that LRG could potentially offer a quick and painless solution to something that Yacht Club Games has been "looking into" for a year and that seems less and less likely to actually happen.

I'm not opposed to Yacht Club handling the game with a different publisher but I want a retail copy for the Vita, one way or another. LRG is one way it could happen.

Wow I don't know if I just subconsciously saw this and that was what put the thought into my head, but I just emailed Dean about it.

People should tweet it if they want it! We do!

I wouldn't mind you guys doing it as well, but there is some sort of physical version of dust already in the works.

i think that is just for PC, thus I would hope he would be open to a console version.

Thanks for that! I will tweet him too, it's the best downloadable game for ps4 imo.I know there is an indiebox coming but I want a console version. Also oddworld vita and ps4 hasn't arrived yet and futuridium vita ps4 is in unfullfilled status :(

Hmmm... I received an email from them on May 7th that said they're working on a release... So, we'll see what happens.

Received my Oddworld just literally now (Australia)... I love when parcel tracking goes wrong, the last update on the tracker has the parcel still in Miami...

Overall, about 2 weeks in total shipping, which is fine with me... and for those that are counting, my disc was loose but no damage done.

Obviously as I have opened it, the one thing that was surprising and somewhat jarring, the lack of "New'n'Tasty" logo on the actual disc...just Abe and background art, guess I'm just used to seeing the name of the game on the disc.

Oooh, good to know! I'm also in Aus so maybe I'll get mine soon too. Because yeah, the last tracking update says it's still sitting in Miami from over a week ago.

In addition, my mate who also ordered said he had a package at his work this morning waiting for him, but he is offsite today, so he couldn't confirm if it was Oddworld. Funny thing was he ordered Saturday Morning RPG and that was delivered to him on another day where he was offsite also

We are both Sydney, so we are assuming it is as he doesn't believe he is expecting anything else at the moment.

Yeah! Long time reader new member :)
I haven't missed out on a LR game yet! Just got the Vita versions though. Hopefully plan to get them all but prefer Vita when available.

Really rad to see other Aussies here

I'm not so sure the PSVR 2 will succeed, and may fall short like the first one. (PSVR2+PS5 may potentially cost $1,040 with two games)
