These arrived this week.  I actually forgot to pre-order Okami and it was sold out, but I was able to get an order in earlier this week.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Yeah. I work at EB Games, and we received a ton for PS4. Only one copy for XBox One though! :P

Glad you still got one though. I've heard nothing but good things from this game but never actually had a chance to try it. Just picked up a copy, so I'm gonna finally give it try on my my new PS4 Pro my girlfriend got me for Christmas!

I didn't even know Okami was going to get a physical release so I already bought it digitally on my Xbox  :(

I was referring to the Amazon pre-order.  About a week after it was available to pre-order I remembered that I wanted to order it, but by then it was unavailable.  This past week I received a notification that it was available again.  No idea about in any store.  I never looked.

A little late, but these were my Christmas gifts this year.  I'm probably an odd ball in that I asked for a PS VR instead of a Switch, but I'm just not ready to buy a Switch yet.  I just have this thing against buying a new System when the manufacturer doesn't offer any type of sale or discount price during the holidays.  Even a pack in game might have worked, but nothing.  I'm more than aware that the Switch is selling well enough that Nintendo doesn't need to offer discounts, but that's just how I am.  It doesn't matter though because my PS4 backlog is so large, I have plenty to keep my busy.  

Also, here is a quick opinion on my VR experiences.  I'm really enjoying it so far.  I can play for a few hours without getting motion sickness except for a few select events in a few games.  A few hours of gameplay without motion sickness is sufficient for me since I can rarely play video games much longer than that anyway.  I've really been digging most of the demo games and I have an hour or so of Gran Turismo VR under my belt.  While I really enjoy the VR aspect of Gran Turismo, I'm pretty disappointed in the actual game.  GT content hasn't been this low since the original game for the PS1.  There is so little in the game that it's really nothing more than a tech demo.  As far as I'm concerned, this is nothing more than Gran Turismo 7 Prologue.  For the record, that isn't what bothers me.  I just wish they were upfront about it instead of advertising and pricing it as a full blown GT game (which it certainly isn't).  

If you have the VR set, check out The Last Guardian VR Demo.  It's really cool (if you've already played the original game).  

Also, has anyone made a cover for the PlayStation VR Demo Disc 2.0 yet?  I can scan mine if no one else has yet.  

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Worst case scenerio, Batman might not be sealed.  ;)

  • I'm kind of idle... at least for now.
This is my last post of 2017. I got myself one of these.

I got it today, shipped today, no excuses. I'll see you all in 2018 where everything will feel exactly the same.

Well, that’s me sold on them then. I find the switch controllers quite uncomfortable and small.
