Video Game Question

[THE HCP]

On June 29th LEGO Harry Potter comes out. I want to get it for him for our Wii. Will there be some in stock at Target or BestBuy that day for me to go pick up? I know some of you geeks stand in line for games when they are first released and was wondering if the same thing happens to kid games like this.

I'm confused. I see nothing from Sly and a baseball video from the other nerd.

Some places have the option to reserve a copy ahead of time. If they have that option, you might consider it. If they don't have that option, the you probably don't need to worry about it because they don't expect it to sell out. You could call up one of those places and ask them if they have any opinion on it being a hot seller.

 

[THE HCP]

Thanks man. I'll call best buy.

 

[THE HCP]

What does the baseball video mean?

Game Stop at Lloyd Center will reserve games if Best Buy won't.

 

[NJNetz]

Don't bother calling HCP. Go pick up the game on it's release date and I guarantee it will be there.

^^^ that one is a classic for sure.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

Yeah, don't call them up. I'm 100% sure they'll have it on release day.

What he said!

FYI - my 6 year old son doesnt like the Lego games on the Wii. He likes them much much better on the xbox360. We have all of the various Lego games.

For the Wii, you gotta get Super Mario Bros Wii. It's fun, your kid will love it. Mario Cart is also fun, good game for the whole family to play together.

 

[THE HCP]

I understood what the video was people, how does it apply to my situation? Is this some secret geek message I'm too cool and hip to understand?

I bought Lego Star Wars for dirt cheap to give my brothers something to play when they come over... I ended up playing it most.. I love that game lol they are a blast. "cute and funny" for the kids, but the puzzles are challenging enough for adults.

Ya, I enjoy playing it with my son also. Lego Indiana Jones is also really fun.

I bought that one on ebay for cheap also like 6 months ago.. but still havent played it lol.. I keep getting distracted with games like MW2, Fifa, BF2, and now Red Dead Redemption. Seriously I am in love with Red Dead Redemption!

 

[Hank The Dwarf]

Super Mario Galaxy 2 on Wii.

Your kids will love it. Trust me.

Alright, so now I'm getting a PS3. Wondering if you guys know how to attack it? BestBuy, Target some secret online website you guys know of? Bundles? Just the console? eBay? Craigslist? I see some have bigger hard drives then others, but I can tell you we probably won't even hook it up online and I know if I do, we won't download stuff. Who knows, but I guess I don't need the top of the line model. Any suggestions on my 20 questions?

It might be standard with all PS3 systems but I thought of gettting one because of the blue ray function and I heard you can get netflixs through it.

dont buy on ebay.. I cant tell you how many times people have boughten stuff, it works for a month, then dies.. with no warranty. You spend about $60-100 more new but its totally worth the sanity. Bundles are usually good deals to get games for free or cheaper than full price

 

[THE HCP]

Who's got the hook up? Who wnat an autographed pair of Torean Green shoes or even better Ha's signed jock strap!

lmao.. you are honestly fine getting a bundle from a Wal Mart or Freddy's or something.. you will find better bundle deals there, than at Best Buy usually. But it is still same warranty and all that.

And make sure to get the slim PS3.

I was looking into PS3's this weekend.. Whats the Slim do? Other than the obvious less space?

Not that the PS3 often have this problem, but the slim is less likely to break down as it's the newest version. I hear it runs better, overall.

ah ok gotcha. Sorry Video Game stuff is blocked at work. Are they the higher Gig ones as well? I normally wouldnt care but I would plan to Download some old PSX games on it since the new ones arent Backwards Compatible.
