Anyone with history with Amazon's release day shipping? Does it come in the afternoon of the actual release day or is it a sham?

I think I've been ordering at Amazon exclusively for the past 3 years. I've bought countless games day 1 with release date shipping. Only one time did the game not arrive on time and it was because UPS couldn't drive the roads due to slickness or something.

The best part of the steam was that at least 6 people were constantly texting Hector to try and piss him off. HA! If you saw him fiddling with his phone during the steam that was us =P

 

[VisionaryQuest0]

"Is Jade darker skinned in the final version? She looks darker in the stream than she does in the promo image or in some earlier footage I saw."


I think that's just the stream overall looking darker.

I think the darker skin tone for Jade really was her's, not the stream being dark. Nobody else's skin looked like that.

haha nice

Should have stolen his phone in advance and replaced the ringtone/text alert sound with something loud and ridiculous. We used to do this to coworkers in meetings so a loud kiss noise plays when they receive e-mails...and then proceed to e-mail them repeatedly during meetings where people had their laptops.

Just preordered the Kollector's guide and the first movie on blu-ray from Amazon. Very excited.

 

[Criminal Upper]

Can someone remind me what the collector's edition of the guide has over the standard one?

I wish Amazon Canada was comparable to Amazon.com. I only used Best Buy because the game was $10 cheaper from them. And though Amazon.ca is reasonably fast, I haven't been that impressed with their packaging recently.

 

[shuri]

This is the first MK game I have not pre-ordered since MK1 on the snes! It feels kinda weird to be honest; I just hope to be able to find a copy

 

[mhznet]

I wish Amazon shipped games to my country, dunno why they can ship everything else except games.

 

[Aske]

Can someone remind me what the collector's edition of the guide has over the standard one?

KE Guide Features from Amazon:

• All content from regular edition book
• Exclusive theme song from Teenage Riot Records
• Behind the Music - Exclusive interviews with the theme song artists
• Tournament caliber strategy for the serious tournament players
• Inside NetherRealm Studio feature
• Massive concept art section
• Laminated move reference cards for all characters
• Character histories with Fatality gallery and warrior evolution
• Embossed Hardcover with special foil logo


Everything below the first bulletpoint is exclusive to the KE guide, and isn't included with the regular one. Except perhaps the 'tournament caliber strategy' thing...surely that's in the regular edition.

Regular edition has no description on Amazon, just the cover art.

Edit: And Amazon is currently selling the KE for $20 (down from $35) and the regular edition for $12 (down from $20).

hey fernoca, I got some challenge for you, I need Cyrax av (Kang is puss, go cyber or die), check PM with my harrassment.

BTW anyone got any info about unlocks? I'd like them to go retro and put stuff like MK3 announcer or theme like this. Damn I would pay for damn DLC to have it.

[Salsa]

This OT is impossible to browse, way too much stuff.

Good job though.

 

[Barack Lesnar]

Wow, epic thread for an epic game. It actually makes me want to buy a console and get this. Well, I already did but it makes me to want to even more. The game looks so fkng good. I'm tired of all these great multi-platform games missing on PC.

 

[MarshMellow96]

Fuck I'm probably buying it day 1 even if I can't play it until late May/early June. MK is a fighter I can get behind.

*thumbs up*

Check your PM.

This is pretty fitting anyway, since I'm getting the first movie on BD that day partially because I want it and partially because I want the outfit voucher.

 

[fernoca]

Next avatar update will include the Vs. pictures that hasn't been asked for already.

No more requests at the moment, while I finish (just started ) so keep an eye out. Was planning to and this avatars next week, but since there's demand for it..and I'm bored, why not? XD

My computer's slow..so patience...

 

[nero2082]

Check your PM.

fernoca wins, speedality.

now we're talkin! I hope Cyrax will be popular...not like that other guy...Cyber Sub :<

 

[MarshMellow96]

Are those BDs coming to Europe? I wouldn't mind picking up the first film.

Awesome, dude!

Nice one infinity!

Want me to add it to the thread?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Nice post Infinity. I loved MK2 back in the day.

If it gets any bigger it's going to become self aware.

That's what she said.

 

[fernoca]

Be my guest

Cool, let me finish with the vs. avatars and then I'll create a "brought to you by infinity" banner and put it in the misc. sections (since there's no space in the actual summaries)

*yoink*

This is pretty fitting anyway, since I'm getting the first movie on BD that day partially because I want it and partially because I want the outfit voucher.

Hmm..check your PM.

Is not that big anyway.....oh the thread? Not that big either.

 

[Anticitizen One]

That's what Kitana said.

fixed

 

[Unicorn]

I think eventually making the banners smaller will make the OT a bit more manageable.

Have all the MK avatars been snatched up already?

Edit:

Think this one is good to go

April 19 can't come soon enough!

Spoiler

Cyber Sub

I think OP specifically left out character spoilers. You might wanna edit that.


Great Thread fernoca. Back in time may not be the coolest tag, but it works on multiple levels, which I appreciate.

 

[bathala]

any word on that 360 exclusive or even a demo (even though fully paid mine)

 

[mhznet]

Not yet.

 

[Thunderbear]

Great OP. A dedicated fan!

Looking forward to receiving the game next Tuesday, got it pre-ordered from Amazon. Very excited that there's so much single player content. I am not sure I'll even buy any more Capcom fighters until they start putting in some SP content into their games.

 

[Irish]

I don't think the OP is that long. I mean, fernoca could have pulled a BLR and made a 40 post OP.

 

[fernoca]

Vs. avatars being uploaded.
All but the ones that were asked for already and the "2 spoiler-ish" characters. So, if anyone appears with one of those 2 characters, it wasn't done by me.

Will edit this post with them before putting them into the OP.

Remember that:

Avatars are now hosted by NeoGAF instead of going through an external url. The new avatar size limits are 100x120 pixels and 50KB. Animated avatars are no longer permitted.

As before, avatars should be G-rated, and not explicit, suggestive, or disgusting. NeoGAF readers can use their discretion for what threads to click on, but cannot use their discretion for which avatars they end up seeing, so ensure your avatars are very work-safe.

To set up your avatar, click on the User CP at the top navigation bar, then Edit Avatar, then either provide the system with a link for the image you'd like to use or choose a file from your computer. Either way, the image will be hosted on the NeoGAF servers, so there are no worries about finding a webhost for your image.

If you would like to continue using your previous avatar with the new system, the old url can be found in your user profile.

Avatar functionality site-wide can now be disabled, for example if you're browsing with limited bandwidth or at work. To enable or disable avatars being displayed, click on User CP, then Edit Options, scroll to Thread Display Options, then in the Visible Post Elements section select or deselect "Show Avatars."

If you need assistance creating an avatar, head on over to the Forum Avatar Request Thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=390648

It's most likely dependends on where you exist in UPS or Fedex's delivery route. When I receive a shipment from FedEx it's usually from 12pm-2pm. UPS is always later in the day for me around 5pm.

Thank you and everyone else for the replies. Just need to give the babysitter a heads up on release day.

Was the audio/video out of sync or laggy during the livestream? The archive isn't too good. Could be just my PC, or that I skipped to 22:00 instantly.

Remember that you can't use external hosts anymore!
