Sometimes I forget the Xbone is actually out because I feel like the only place I've ever heard talk of it was on these forums.


Apparently you've been able to buy one for 3 years.

Has anyone else preordered the physical edition at Amazon and gotten a delivery date of Dec. 2 - 6? Prime 2-day shipping wasn't even an option. I don't know if it's something that will just update automatically when it gets closer or whether I should give up and just buy it locally.

I just cancelled my Amazon physical copy and reordered it and it says release day shipping.

I've never NOT received something on release day, and that's on at least 20 preorders. I live like 20 miles from an Amazon warehouse though so that may have something to do with it. I usually get a shipment notification at 6 am and it is on my doorstep by 2 pm.

I will get a shipped notice either tonight or tomorrow morning, and my delivery will say Tuesday by 9 PM until like Thursday morning when it arrives.

One time, 5 years ago I ordered Mortal Kombat 9 and got a package on release day.

The package was a copy of Portal 2 for some reason. So close yet so far.

If I went through the Amazon road trip "game", does the Redeem DLC button just give me a code for the PSN store? I finished it up but didn't collect the code because I figured without the game, why bother. But now it's almost here and I don't want to screw it up. I also haven't watched any of the Brotherhood animes yet. I'm a bad Final Fantasy fan. :(

The button is greyed out with text that says you literally cannot collect the code until the game is out so your guess is as good as anyones!

I found Deadeye to be terrible to be hoenst. It's like 10 minutes of walking there, forced slow walking, forced slow crawling, cutscenes and chatter, and a stealth section while the entire time I'm thinking 'just let me stab this loving thing' and then you get dumped in an arena where you're allowed to... just stab the loving thing. I'd rather go find dog tag #153 than do that again.

I thought about just stabbing it during the stealth section but it was my sincerest fear that it would fail me or something and make me do all the crawling poo poo again.

Have you talked to people who actually played the game since they were 10? It sounds to me like you're thinking of people who go "oh man that plot is so complex I don't get it." Like even in the recent FFVII LP people's response was "oh, this makes a lot more sense that I remember, I just forgot about (X) (Y) and (Z)

I have a friend that replayed it when it came to PS4 last year(?) and it was the worst because he just rabidly held on to whatever dumb ideas his child brain made up 20 years ago and refused to, you know, read the text that is plainly on the screen. I could see a ~10 year old being confused by unreliable narrators or a shape-shifting alien taking on the antagonist's form or whatever, but this guy is in his 30's now.

I finally decided to actually start advancing the story-line against the advice of literally every single person I have talked to about the game.


What button do I press to call-off my engagement to Moonlady so I can marry the more-armored Not-Eclair Highwind instead? Is it in like an alt control scheme or something?

Are the FFXIII sequels worth it? I traded the original in as soon as I finished it.

LR is dope if you actually want to engage with different weapons/garbs/building up abilities/understanding the combat. Spear beatdown into double finale jumps all day.

If you don't want to interact with any systems at all and just kind of hold attack buttons down through the game you'll probably find it terrible and it will take forever.

Is The Last Spiracorns hunt bugged for everyone? I played through the game and couldn't get them to spawn when I first got the quest so I had to go back much later. My friend is playing through the game now and same thing, they wouldn't spawn when he first attempted to find them.

I have probably 4+ hunts that are bugged at the moment and I think that is one? I know one is Hammer the Cannibals because the name stuck with me. One is inside the power plant where the enemies spawn but killing them does not give me credit and they don't come back. One is giant killer beetle things because I thought it was going to be bees and I looked it up on youtube to make sure I was in the right place and was like oh poo poo, I didn't want to fight those things anyways.
