The waiting is the hardest part
La Pucelle Tactics was delayed a day 'round these parts. I had foolishly called on Tuesday to see if my local stores had got it in early, spurred on by posts on Penny-Arcade that it was already available. Maybe their movie star stores are opened crazy hours, but we in Springfield are simple folk. We like our cars fast, and our stores closed,... or at least not full of the latest product.
Once again my stock querry was met with a nonrelated response regarding preordering. Once again, for all of you, I DO NOT FUCKING PREORDER. Why should I reward any store that will take my money? My dollars go to the store who gets the product first. The preorder deally benefits the stores and the stores alone. Whenever they get the game, they call you and tell you so. Sure, you're going to get a copy, but that call can come whenever. Another store may have had the game for a whole day before you get that call.
Whatever, I've got to jet, then work, then help John move. Be back later, hopefully with La impressions.
