Tabonga | 2,390 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 15 minutes ago, RH said: Ok, what! Granted, I'm glad to be getting that one quickly, but I think preorders just closed on that one and they also said they were going to work through their shipping backlog based off of order age. This is practically a new order from me. Why has it shipped so fast?! I'm not upset. I just don't understand the logistics. It is not part of their numbered series - basically they are acting as a store for whoever actually made it - so the production schedule was not up to Limited Run (think of this as a good, a very good thing!). I recently pre-ordered Holy Potatoes! Compendium through them and it is on its way to me already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICrappedMyPants | 302 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 These guys have about 8 games or so that I bought in the first half of the year and am still waiting on since I did combined shipping. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californication | 1,490 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Is anyone waiting anxiously for the LRG release of Shadow of the Ninja? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICrappedMyPants | 302 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I just got a notification that my Panzer Dragoon and Jedi Outcast/Academy games will be shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,809 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I just got my Jedi Outcast/Academy games along with Shantae: Seven Sirens yesterday. Unfortunately, if you are a sealed collector, you might not like the quality of the seal on the Jedi Knight games. I'm going to open mine, so it doesn't matter to me. Everything is in perfect condition, but the seal isn't very attractive on the spine, at least for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avatar! | 1,855 Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 Two upcoming games by Special Reserve These are limited to 3000 numbered copies. Apparently they decided to do away with the open pre-orders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked into them and they didn't look very interesting to me but have scored well. Anyone played them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumer | 221 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I thought about the Shenmue III package, but then realized I still haven't played Shenmue 1 or 2 yet and probably will be another 10 years before I even touch THOSE games on my PS4. So, I passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabonga | 2,390 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Red Art Games is having a Black Friday sale of some sort (no details given) on Friday at 12:00 pm CET. They have some interesting stuff so there are a couple of things I want to get if the sale is decent. https://www.redartgames.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki | 4,972 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Wow pretty, shame I don't fund or keep funds around for fluff packages, but they are nice to see. I hope they'll have standard releases as I know they get dopey at times (which is why I never got samurai shodown 5 perfect for switch.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I have always found the Dyatlov Pass Incident really intriguing I read some reviews of Kholat that agree with you. I have a couple other of their games and am looking at Candleman and Stay if they reduce them a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're familiar with it, then I'd give it an even harder pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumer | 221 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I am down for the Monkey Island Anthology. I got the Sega CD release earlier this year, but still prefer it on a PC. One of my all-time favorite computer game series, right after Wing Commander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiSlice | 3,100 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 If anyone is seriously considering this Red Art Games sale I think Gekido is worthwhile, it’s a port of a GBA game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvertov | 210 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Is there something special about this Shadow of the Ninja release? Like with Metal Storm, where there was a new English translation of the old Famicom version? Normally I enjoy these official repros but this one doesn't seem that interesting, especially when the original licensed release isn't that rare.

Metal Storm was initially a North American NTSC release and I don't think it had any text in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there's some merch now for this game wich never would've happened otherwise. Whatever that's worth, if you're interested in that type of shit. I would've wished something more like a little statue as opposed to a flat standee but hey it is what it is. Like i said if you're into this games fictional characters/universe like that you'll never find anything else so this is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The soundtrack on CD has never been released before, so that is new and cool! As for the game, most likely it's the same as the original. Note that original CIB copies are much pricier than this new edition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
