can someone help me out, i went in to gamestation and game(uk) to see if they sell the mgs hd collection for 360 and they said you can only get it if you pre ordered the game, he said your out of luck now and wont be able to buy the game, but i havent seen one website say that its pre order only.
did you guys pre order or just walk in to the shop and buy it? |
I honestly can't remember if i pre ordered the game or walked in and just bought it, i think i pre ordered it.
That doesn't sound right at all saying the only way you can get the game is to pre-order it, was it in game or gamestation they told you that or was it both places? you should have asked to see the manager and made a complaint that you were being prevented from buying the game just because you didn't pre-order it, what about all the other people who don't pre-order a game what are they supposed to do go without if that guy told them what he told you he would have a riot on his hands.
If game and gamestation only sell games to people who pre order then they won't sell a lot of games, going by their obviously flawed and quite frankly stupid logic they might as well just put a sign in the window saying if you don't pre-order a game you are not getting one, little johnny will be upset when his mother can't buy him fireman sam just because some store employee who has become corrupted by power said his mother didn't pre-order it.
I bought Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning (not pre-ordered) last friday with no fuss being made i walked in paid for it and walked out, the staff at my local GAME store are helpful decent people though and i know them all quite well not personally just from going in there once or twice a week.
Did you try HMV? If GAME and gamestation are becoming increasingly selective about who they sell games to then they won't last much longer.
I would definitely have made a complaint if i had been in your place, no one should have to put up with that treatment from anyone.
I'd say you were unlucky enough to encounter the store a*****e/

who just made your life difficult, every store/workplace has one.
Getting back to the game, has anyone got any tips for coming first in the VR missions i keep falling short no matter what i do, at this rate it'll be a long time before i get the in it to win it trophy.
