There is network lag and then there is graphics lag. Companies have to factor in the number of players that can exist in a particular enviroment at anyone one time.
Yep that's the one. The reason that store is open and has no other real competitions in the mall is because apparently the owner of the store is a friend (or something to that extent) of the owner(s) of the mall. Otherwise we would have seen an EB Games in there a long time ago and the guy would have gone out of buisness.
If anyone here is ever in West Edmonton Mall and in need of laughter/anger/shock and disgust then i suggest popping into the store and looking at the prices.
The west edmonton mall store that has it is playme and they're selling it for $500. That's right, you read that correctly.
The store is know for taking anything and everything and selling it for a good deal more. Sadly they have been doing this for several years simply on people not familiar with the normal prices.
Anywho i've called eb games several times over the past week and have gotten atleast 8 different dates.
From what i understand it's shipping today however like some people have said the bundle is too big to ship by air so it will be by ground . Therefore we can assume it be somewhere between the 24th and 28th that these bundles will arrive in stores.
