I hope I get a copy of Night Trap. I will be traveling and out of town that day.

Man, Oceanhorn flew off the handle!  Within 3 minutes, it was gone!  Barely got Plague Road as it is, though I'd much prefer Oceanhorn over Plague Road.  I might've nabbed Oceanhorn had it not been for me inputting something wrong in one of the fields for the credit card info.  I'm quite bummed about it!

I guess it's a good thing the two releases this past Friday did not interest me. I might have been numbed to have missed out.

If anyone has an Oceanhorn they don't want, maybe swap with my Plague Road?  Let me know!

Yeah it definitely did. I sat at the paypal loading screen forever. I think I'm going to stop trying with LRG. I know this has always been their thing since their inception, but sometimes I feel pretty damn gullible racing to get this shit. I don't know, it all seems pretty stupid.

Yup, from here, it looked like 2 minutes & it was gone like a fart in the wind!  I tried for the special edition first....gone, so hurriedly went for the regular edition.....gone!  Gonna try again on my phone later when I'm at work, but I should NOT get my hopes up!  2 per customer....that really knocks the wind out of me! :P  I really want the special edition, but, I want the game regardless, so, not sure if I should just try to nab the regular while others fight for the special edition? Decisions, decisions......

If you can't get either from LRG, play-asia has the reg available for pre-order

Allowing two per customer is straight bullshit.  There's no defending it; it's 100% pandering to flippers and shelf queens.

You're totally wrong Necro.  Unless you get 2 copies, how else are you going to have sealed copies of both cover variants?  Eh?  Eh?

jk of course.  LRG is headed down an ugly path with their trading cards, online-only game (Lawbreakers) and heavy release schedule.  I'm getting a bit burned out on LRG but really wanted Wonder Boy.  I would have bought it from any publisher.  Just bought 1 regular copy today with no problems.  I'll certainly have the Master System side of the reversible cover displayed, because duh.

That's like 90% of their customer base it would seem.

The bundle with the special edition of Wonder Boy and the other shitty online only game was available for quite a while.  I wonder how often they will use this tactic in the future, to sell through unwanted stock, pair it with a good game.

I am sure the shit bundle will be available at 6:00, for anyone that wants it.
