Jester983 0 Posted June 30, 2002 Im getting mine from best buy tomorrow or monday if they have in the stores. Im going to be pissed/not all that surprised if they dont have it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 Im getting from Best Buy. Unfortunately, My store isnt planning on getting it until the 2nd at the earliest- 4th or 5th is a more realistic date. Edit: Btw, this suckers gettin moved. can you guess where? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jester983 0 Posted June 30, 2002 oh oh oh! ummm OFFTOPIC??? I just saw on Bestbuy's site that resistance isnt being released till tomorrow....What bastards! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 The website is lying I think, because our store had the ordering date as the 2nd, not the 30th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 Oh I guessed right as a matter of fact. Its just that I was trying to give someone else a chance to figure it out. Not my fault that they blew the call Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haXor 0 Posted June 30, 2002 You want Resistance today ? You CAN get it today ... I shit you not !!! 1 Hour 20 Minutes and counting here ..... Here is the Secret .... go to Best Buy's Website and go to the Store Locator ... enter yer Zipcode. Find the Store(s) closest to you and CALL THEM at 11am (opening time). Press option "47" immediately. ASK FOR THE GAME AND INSIST THEY CHECK RECEIVING IF ITS NOT ON THE SHELF !!! HAVE THEM HOLD THE GAME FOR 1 HOUR (give them a credit card # if needed.) They HAVE TO hold it for you ..... The phone is faster than ANY car ... and faster than you can get there .... I am doing this with 2 stores in my area. I will have my OWN copy TODAY !!!! And PLEASE come play on the 37th Mike Force Server when you get it .... It will be running the addon and waiting for you when yer ready. WOOOT !!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 Haxor, youre my bro, and I hate to burst your bubble, but dont be surprised if Best Buy doesnt have it until the 2nd. I know what the website says, but I talked to our towns store, and theyve got it ordered for the 2nd. So... dont get yer hopes up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haXor 0 Posted June 30, 2002 Man I was so wrong ... in a previous post. I feel like such a dork and all ... BIS has really done a good job on this addon ... better textures, editor ... better code. I wont argue that at all. I am also sorry to say .. I WILL HAVE IT TODAY. hehe ... I feel I owe BIS that ... after all the hype I said. I have checked several stores and they will have it in today. I will scan the cover for ya when I get it. Wish me luck ! Oh .. want me to pick a copy up for you TEX ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 LOL... your confidence is reassuring- I just might go out and check again today. And if in fact I do get it, my first multiplayer stop will be the 37th server. Heres hopin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haXor 0 Posted June 30, 2002 A great man once said: "The only thing we have to fear is Fear itself" Let me refrase that .... It should read: "The only thing we have to fear is no Resistance addon at BestBuy today." Do exactly as I said .... It may NOT be on the shelf ... insist they check the back and receiving ... be nice to them ... kiss ass ...I have (2) people at each location with my cell phone # .. they said they will call me when its in ... but I am pressing it further .. do as I said and all will work out. My confidence comes from many hours of anticipation. "The only way to overcome anticipation, is to imagine that the event has already happened." I think I already have Resistance, BIS has my $, I think I already have Resistance, BIS has my $, I think I already have Resistance, BIS has my $, I think I already have Resistance. ok thats out of my system ...

Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 No go here either. Told you so. On the upside, they will have it in 2 days here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duke_of_Ray 0 Posted June 30, 2002 Tex{USMC} what town is the best buy you are buying it at in? Do you live in Texas? I do and I have to drive to Dallas area to buy OFP if it is only at best buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tex -USMC- 0 Posted June 30, 2002 I live in Midland, Texas, and the Best Buy is here in town. Unfortunately, Midland is right smack dab between El Paso and Dallas, so I somehow doubt it will be a feasible drive for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
