    Default Who has to wait 'til x-mas?

    I do. I got in a fight over it cause I got the money for it, they want it to be a gift though. Stupid. Anyone else have to wait?

    Yeah. And that's if I even get it then. Really depends on Santa's budget this year

    You should have said not letting you wait and allowing you to buy it yourself is a better gift than getting it after the torture of not having it for one month.

    Seriously. If you have the money and want it, just buy it. Your parents (or whoever it is) can return it for store credit. If not, many retailers will allow you to return items post-Christmas for a limited time without receipt. That means you can get the credit back into your own pocket.

    I tried to tell them I'm gonna buy it myself and I have the money to do so. It's just that they said they got the deluxe version and was banking for it to be my best gift from them. I started a family fight over it. Now I'm just gonna wait until x-mas and get them more gifts.

    That's rough. Are they aware you've already been waiting 10 years for this? I can see both sides of the story on this and it's a hard choice.

    I fought and fought but I decided to wait due to being a good family member. I will spend my money on them and wait for x-mas to play.

    That's very caring of you.

    Do it like I do and get the game multiple times. So you can have it next week as normal version and you get it for christmas as deluxe version.

    Me.

    Though I'm very close to caving and picking it up in Standard Edition on Amazon before hand and then just selling it once I get my UCE at Christmas.

    Yeah, I can't possibly wait until Christmas. My Mass Effect 2 play through will be finished at the weekend so then it's full steam ahead on Tuesday!

    I do really want The Last Guardian on December 7th but I'll probably wait until Christmas for that. It's not like I'll have chance to play it before I finish FFXV anyway

    What's one more month when you've waited for 120 months?

    There are other games to play.

    True, but some people just really want to play this as soon as they can.

    I know your hype has died down, but there are still those among us for whom this is a big deal, which is why it can be frustrating to wait even more.

    Hey, at least you guys only have to wait till Christmas. I have to wait an indeterminate amount of time.

    It's not just this game, man . I'm just very over getting any game at release. If my hype hasn't died down, there's still the very high chance of a game being barely stable enough to actually run.
