Apparently PSU is getting alot of recognition

[ProfessorZ]

I just called Wal-mart and asked for PSU (I said PSU not Phantasy Star Universe) and the guy knew what I was talking about. They said they won't get it until tuesday but I have a feeling it will be on sale tomorrow

[Jade4r5]

if it is please post here and let us know

[CherryLunar]

Hehehe. Good to see that it now officially means something to people other than Penn State University.

[ProfessorZ]

If I get PSU tomorrow the whole world will know trust me

[JaiBlue]

Well one of my friends works in a gamestop practically around the corner from were I live(no litterally the store is right across from my backyard), if I ever find out that the shipments came in early and he never told me.......hell is commin sooner than he thinks. Dammit I can't stand the fact that there might be a copy of psu 20 feet from where I'm currently sitting. >_<

Everyplace I've asked about it can't find it on their computer because they spell it with a F XD

It's street dated, so technically they can't sell it until Tuesday.

[Tystys]

If they do end up selling it before hand, they're going to get into a lot of trouble

Lol @ Walmart getting in trouble.

[Garnet_Moon]

Get it tomorrow, enjoy the offline mode until 1300 hours on tuesday when Sega opens the GUARDIAN server for registration, then go online. I hope, I hope, I hope Wally World has them on the shelves tomorrow. >.<

[BrandonBa2]

Don't even bother getting your hopes up getting it tomorrow. I've done it to much for to many games and guess how many came through...0.

[Tystys]

Tommorow is WAY too early. The servers won't even be up probably. They're probably just shipping on the 24th so they can have more time to get the servers ready.

[ProfessorZ]

Offline hello? And wal-mart gets their shipments on monday, wednesday and saturday (at least where I live) They already had saints row for sale. I'm not getting my hopes up but I'm just saying it will be great if they put it up on monday

[Ecstasy]

Do not underestimate the mighty wal-mart.

[Tystys]

Fucking wal-mart.

[SpishackCola]

the dude that answered the phone could, ya know, play video games and happens to know about PSU himself. Not really a case of "getting" recognition.

[JaiBlue]

I can't take it anymore I want special edition psu. *cries*

[MAGNUShunter]

I just may stakeout walmart till midnight tomorrow.
such a loooser. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[Blenjar]

[Sleet_v2]

I feel you. I wake for work at 5:30am.
So I should get to bed now and conserve my strength. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[Sleet_v2]

MAGNU are you getting Xbox or ps2 version?

[JaiBlue]

Since where are preorders not good enough? o_0

[MAGNUShunter]

aghhh. the choices. i guess xbox.
and Jai' it's all about how soon we can get our hands on it.
!

[NeuroNomad]

Not to be rude but I think there are going to be a LOT of disappointed people when they find out that the game is shipping on the 24th and these places will not have it until the 25th most likely.

[BrandonBa2]

Neuro dont even try they think its there and its waiting there for them.

[Sleet_v2]

Well I am of course going to call them at midnight and ask if they actuall have the game or not... if they dont.. I am not going to walmart... duh. Magnu.. should get PS2 and then we can midnight level http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif and be way l33t compared to non cool walmart shoppers. mwhaha

[Blenjar]

I just want to level up my robo friend and take it out for a date.
Yea I think spending my whole day in school tomorrow to get as much as possible will be rough..off I go!

-- Blen

[JaiBlue]

Yea but because you guys didn't preorder it, you probably missed out on a chance for a special edition copy.

[MAGNUShunter]

They sell food there so its all good.

[Asura17]

I don't know about walmart.. kind of always packed even late at night.. so maybe somewhere else http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif! like gamestop..

[DrEngrish]

Walmart is doing a midnight release in your area. Bummer... I dont even think the Walmart up here is open at that time.

*Is in Washington*

[Saner]

camping as in tents?

[MAGNUShunter]

http://www.rv-info.net/WalMart.JPG (http://www.pso-world.com)

[MAGNUShunter]

or rv's saner. whatever. homeless people just use the curb. i see it all the time.
they are pretty nice where i live.

[BrandonBa2]

If you do get it which is like 0.1% chance the chance of the servers being up are even lower.

Since you don't need to flash a receipt to say you have the preorder. Someone can get your copy if they are dogged enough to wave the preorder fee and pay in full. I've been a victim of this. :

[DrizaSiegmund]

if you guys are actually camping out take photos id wanna see this xD

[MAGNUShunter]

Good idea!
pictures!

Buy the way, to those who think the servers wont be up. im in Redlands, CA.
Last I checked there was a thing called "time-zones"
anybody???

[Skyly]

I'm just going at 12, no camping for me lol

[MAGNUShunter]

no way dude!
it's the experience!
didn't any of you camp out for star-wars?!
this is like...
so not star-wars. lol.

[BrandonBa2]

....I don't need mommy to drive me anywhere. I order online so I don't have to go through the hassel of dealing with people like you http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[MAGNUShunter]

but if you look at it this way...
instead of waiting two more days, we're faking ourselves out so it only feels like one.
we do this because we have lives. and we are cool.

Wait if we have lives why do we need to fake ourselves out?

[BrandonBa2]

We are arguing about a video game's release date online. We have no lives.

Yeah or registration/payment problems. No one's saying it's a sure thing, but I've got time and a 24 hour Wal Mart so I'm gonna at least try to get one early and see if it works.

[Axios-]

How do you camp out at a 24 hour store? Why don't you...go inside?

[Shinjiro]

I'm lucky, because the GameStop I preordered PSU from is very close to my house; I walk to it all the time. I'll just go after I get home from school, and pick it up.

Even if the servers aren't up, can you still make a character for Online?

[SpishackCola]

Umm yea?

[AlphaMinotaux]

most gaming stores will either have it by tuesday in the afternoon or wednesday. simple as that

[BrandonBa2]

No you can't make a character for online as the servers would be down so you cant connect http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[Bleemo]

I suggest you make a blog for all of us to read about your camp out adventure.

[Emgro]

I was considering camping my Wal-Mart, but then I remembered I have 12 consecutive hours of class on Tuesdays. That kind of puts a damper on it.

Seeing as how characters are saved server-side... figure that one out for yourself. Not worth the risk, either, seeing as how you may get permanently banned for trying.

Further, they probably won't even be selling Guardian Licenses until the servers are up, so you couldn't anyway.

[Killuminati]

The game doesn't come out until wednesday here in south carolina even best buy had it in their sale paper for this week.

LoL.

[Phaze37]

If my local walmart gets their copies on monday, I'll be playing it that day after work for sure. I work at walmart and im good friends with the guys in the electronics department, so if it's there they'll hook me up even if they're not allowed to put it on the shelves until tuesday. I'll talk to them on my lunch break tomorrow and see what's up. The servers probably wont be up until tuesday, so I'll cram in as much Story Mode as possible until the servers are up. However, I'll be lucky if it's even available on tuesday. I'll probably have to wait until wednesday, but on that day I will fiend on PSU like I've never fiended on a game before!

[MAGNUShunter]

Well.
If you want to camp out at wal-mart, and you want to talk about it HERE, dont i guess. It is illegal. (to talk about it i mean. or maybe it just is for me. hmmm. i wonder why. )

[Bleemo]

Lol, I called all of the 24 hour Walmarts in my area and none of them even had a release date for the game, even after elaborating a few times to each store clerk, "It's spelled with a PH, not an F. Do you have the copies in stock already; if so, will they be on the shelves at 12 tonight?" I got the same response from each of the three Walmarts I called: "Sir I have no idea what you're talking about."

[Diablohead]

I hope my import gets here within a few days, would be great to play before the weekend for me.

[Midicronica]

Same thing happened to me sort of. When I called Wal-Mart about the release the slightly irritated employee (could tell by her voice) on the phone promptly told me "I was like the twentieth person to call and ask about that game."

[Nilot]

Good thing I live out where theres no civilization, I'd feel pretty embarassed if that happened to me, and how dare she put me in a group with "like the twentieth" -nanoblast- ..if that happened to me of course =)

[BlueDragon21]

I actually work for Wal-Mart and they typically get shipments M-F for FedEx and UPS which is how the game comes into the stores but you usually have to wait until it gets scanned into the system which means it would be on the floor in the afternoon. From there you would just have to get the lazy people to open the box and put the games out, but Wal-Mart is slow at getting things depending on the store I have seen games intially come in at least a week late.

[ProfessorZ]

Walmart doesn't check shipments they look at the game display case lol

The fact you have a gamestop 20 feet from you is quite possibly the coolest thing I have ever heard. I have to drive 20 minutes through heavy traffic (I pity those cars on release dates) ^_^

They have before. They just got in trouble from BCI Eclipse a few months back. And they got in trouble from Lucas Films not that long ago either.

I'm going to wal mart tonight. There's a 24-hour one 20 miles away

Yeah, just because Wal-Mart is a power hungry conglemerate doesn't mean that no one can take legal action against them lol

[Ryoga4523]

They are not saying that Wal-Mart wont get in trouble, Wal-Mart Pretty much does not care. No one is going to take them out, heck, if they can get away not giving people full time positions so that they cannot get health insurance, than they can pretty much get away with anything.

[DarkShadowX]

Wal-mart owns America, so lol @ Wal-mart getting in trouble here.

[Banya]

I would imagine it might pop up in a few stores tonight.
