  1. Exact same situation. When FedEx first updated it said delivery Thursday, it reached Vegas this morning and is currently out for delivery, that FedEx Priority plays no games. Excited to get my Roy, just Kaki TV 1A and I'm happy with my collection, I'll grab a 1D if I can at retail, not willing to pay more though, 1D would just be a bonus, it's not something I really need.
  2. I snagged Monsterarts Nargacuga for $63 shipped off Hot Topics black Friday sale, of all places. I was waiting on stock at BBTS for retail price, this works :). My Rathalos is on the way too, and I'm in for Zinogre when orders open, love me some Monster Hunter.
  3. For those that ordered through Nin Nin and received a shipping notice, but haven't seen any progress, my package is officially in the hands of FedEx and is on the way. No delivery date yet, but is is finally moving.
  4. Got tracking from Nin Nin, glad to see they came through! I'm relieved! Fedex Priority, should receive Roy early next week, hope everyone else's orders go through.
  5. Exact same here, same shipping, nothing yet. Should here from them today or tomorrow at the latest if all is well.
  6. So I guess in the next week those of us that ordered at Nin-Nin will see if we do in fact get the Roy 1S we paid for, or if we're getting screwed, fun!
  7. I really just want to see a single Predator again, no team, no Predator civil war, just one single nearly unstoppable beast doing it's thing, hunting. Also, just make it an OG Predator, not another hybrid or Super Predator. It's definitely tough in the beginning, but I loved that, that feeling of no hope, just despair, you know you can't fight, just run. It gets better eventually, you definitely can't outright fight or kill the Xeno, but you can drive it away, which kept the feeling of an unkillable stalker, you know the best you can do is buy time. Also, from a game design standpoint, the Alien AI in Isolation was award-worthy, it was such a brilliantly designed monster, it nailed everything that made the Xeno such an icon in the first film, and the tech and AI behind the creature itself was amazing.
  8. If you don't have him I HIGHLY recommend Blade, he's pretty damn great. Lots of accessories, the coat isn't too bad, and he just looks good, he's a really good Blade figure, still the best out there IMO.
  9. Yeah but then they find a way to kill the beasty in the present day anyway, which becomes even more luck based, and circumstantial. At least with the colonial marines it's usually an earned win or kill, they've got it easier, but it's more believable then the Scooby-Doo like antics of the second AVP. Honestly, the best Alien story since the first film was the game Alien Isolation, which was absolutely amazing, a true love letter to fans of the first film. It caught flack from critics for being too hard, and the antagonist was unkillable, which was the entire point, it was just such a good game and had atmosphere out the wazoo.
  10. Mouscular Chef? Now that's Monster Hunter! I'm now cautiously optimistic.
  11. Yes, and it's been a fantastic season! Chris Rock has been killing it! I am definitely enjoying this season more then season 3, which fell a bit flat for me. I still think the best season was the first, ol Billy Bob and Martin Freeman were brilliant, followed by season 2, this season third, and season 3 would be my least favorite. Leave it to Fargo to subvert expectations too, what a fantastic show.
  12. Yeah it's kind of a bummer, I'd rather have better articulation then a light up gimmick. Either way ordered, he looks fantastic! I need him to finish off my One:12 Marvel Knights, Moon Knight, Blade and Punisher need their backup!
  13. I think the last Predator movie I liked was the one with Adrien Brody and Eric Foreman. The latest one was really terrible. Why do we need Super Predators? And enhanced Predators? And Predators imbued with the genes of autistic kids? The Predator is a damn fine and terrifying movie monster, the monster doesn't need an upgrade, the writing does, stop it. This. Holy crap, it seems so simple, STOP DOING AVP IN THE PRESENT DAY! It's not hard, most of the AVP comics took place in the future, in the time of the Colonial Marines, why do we keep getting these cheap modern monster movies that just happen to have a Predator in them?
  14. I know the next episode is entitled "The Jedi", but what if there's massive misdirection, there's no Ahsoka in this episode, and instead Mando meets up with an actual, admitted Jedi, one Kyle K? That would be crazy. Honestly though, with all this EU and Legends stuff becoming canon again, Kyle seems a no-brainer, he's a massive fan favorite, and a damn fine character all his own. We'll see, I'm guessing it will just be Ahsoka saving Mando's ass against some crazy odds, all not-Jedi style :).
  15. I ordered Sesame Street and the Las Vegas architecture set, got me over $150 so I got the Charles Dickens gift. What a cool little gift set, I know $150 is a fairly steep buy-in, but it's a cool looking little set. I'm excited to check it all out. I almost, almost, almost bought the VW Camper instead, I'm missing that set and Lego.com actually got stock again, but me and Sesame Street go waaaaaay back, I grew up with those colorful characters and that barrio, I had to have it. I can't decide if I want the JP T-Rex set next, or keep my eye open for the Creator Expert Ecto-1, I missed out and would love one for Christmas.
  16. Yup, still lots of people playing, there's crossplay between PC too, so there's even more people to play with. I think Gears 5 is in season 3, maybe 4, so there's lots of maps and content.
  17. Wait so on December 25th I can watch this on HBOMax? Without another charge on top like Disney+ did with Mulan? That's pretty awesome! I have HBOMax, so I'll definitely check this out on Christmas day! The real bummer is that the HBOMax app is stuck in the dark ages, no 4K HDR in 2020? That's frakking absurd, they need to get that updated ASAP.
  18. edit: Nvm, already posted.
  19. I think both new consoles using SSD will lead to both bigger and cheaper SSD in the future, it may take another year or so, but being the new standard for consoles now as well should push competition. They definitely seem to have dialed back on some of the RPG stuff, the new assassination options are interesting, you can run off the numbers and not always get the kill or you can just set it to always kill. Also, there's far, far less gear, it's now more about upgrading existing stuff and occasionally getting a new piece of a set in a chest, then getting piles of new stuff to sort and optimize. Gears Tactics isn't a cover based third person shooter like the rest of the series, it's a turn based strategy game like Xcom. Gears 5 is still the current mainline Gears game, I restarted the campaign with the Series X enhancements and it's amazing, 120fps multiplayer isn't too shabby either. Gears Tactics is a ton of fun if you like turn based strategy games, I've played a lot of Xcom and the like so I'm really enjoying it, even though it's more zoomed out it's still a really polished Gears game.
  20. Yup, got one on launch day, I've got 20 hours into AC Valhalla, it's really smooth in 4K 60fps. I don't like COD so I passed on that, I got Gears Tactics, that game also looks fantastic in 4K 60fps. I'm going to grab Yakuza LAD eventually, it's just too similar to Gears Tactics to play right now as well. I installed Doom Eternal and GTAV on the internal SSD and, no surprise, load times are far faster. Anything with a capped 30fps stays floored at 30fps, no dips. Anything installed on the SSD flies, Series X enhanced or not. The SSD on these new consoles is a game changer, from PC gaming's perspective it's about time, for console players it's a night and day difference.
  21. Yup, just on the shelf. It was crazy, I had to stop and grab a few things and decided to go check the electronics section, the video game stuff is always in sections based on platform and there they were among Xbox One and One S, two Series X and one Series S. Totally unexpected, once again, just sitting there. I'd been reading the horror stories all day about online orders, and scalpers, and people hunting store to store to try and get one, so I asked the guy stocking behind me if they were for sale and yes indeed, I wrung up one Series X. From what I read there's a number of factors at play, first off was that Walmart apparently wasn't supposed to sell these in store, apparently the in store stock was for online orders only. Problem with that was that Walmart.com was a mess all day, orders didn't go through, orders were cancelled, so apparently a number of Walmarts all over the country saw they had stock that wasn't getting picked up and said screw it, and just started selling them. I also read that a few Walmart employees were told in store stock was for Black Friday only, which I doubt. Who knows really, it seems it was a mess overall, most Walmart employees had no idea the Series X and S even came out, and every store, early in the morning, had lines of people trying to grab one. Only thing I've been thinking about is if some poor sap put in an online order and something got messed up, allowing me to grab someone else's already paid for Series X. Honestly though, it was such a mess I doubt anyone got screwed that way, it seems most people getting screwed just had their orders cancelled a few minutes after ordering, Walmart's servers were a mess yesterday.
  22. Nice, I'll be playing Spiderman MM on my PS4 Pro but I'd kill for Demons Souls. I played over 350 hours on PS3 back in college, I loved that game. Good luck on the disc version, I know there's more people out there looking for Sony's new console over either Microsoft one, hopefully you can nab a pre-order on launch night.
  23. Found one at Walmart, not a planned purchase, I was going to definitely grab one eventually, but it was there so I nabbed it.
  24. Didn't plan on buying this today, I didn't pre-order, but there it was at Walmart. Between the PS5 and this X Series I was always getting the Xbox first, then a PS5 when there was enough interesting exclusives to justify the purchase, I did the same with the PS4 Pro. It's certainly a beefy little piece of hardware for $500, I already have a bad boy 72" 4K TV with hdmi 2.1 and native 4K 120hz, so I'm all good to go!
  25. Ghost of Tsushima Legends raid came out, very well made, very tough too. Three chapters, the second in particular took about two hours, definitely requires communication, teamwork and a very solid group of four. This Legends update has been fantastic, it's definitely cemented my opinion that Ghost is absolutely game of the year material.
