You and I both dude, lol. It's been excruciating too. I've wanted a new SamSho for what feels like F O R E V E R. Finally drops and I refuse to get it on EGS or console. I've been eagerly waiting the Steam confirmation just to make it feel THAT much more real.
Maybe they'll pull a Smallville and it's her older sister whose middle name was Cham Cham that dies a tragic death and the boomerang gets passed on to the Cham Cham that actually matters in SS2.
Whatever, characters don't matter until they fix the netcode and balance issues.
