Blockbusters arent all owned by Blockbuster Corp., the one near me is owned and operated by a company called Endless Video, they just use the Blockbuster name and whatnotQuote:

These things got pushed back again at EB and Gamestop.
I'm going to get my reservation money back and buying it from Blockbuster toot sweet. Fuck EB and Gamestop, seriously, if only there were an alternative. I suppose I'm going to be doing all my shopping on the net from now on when it comes to games.
Picked up the Akuma one today and it's damn sexy. The box is hella cool. Went to 5 BBs and only the last got them in, a total of 3.
I thought they were just going to do the 4 originally announced characters but check out the official website. http://www.streetfightercontroller.com There seems to be 6 more coming.
went to BB tonight too and saw only one left. not sure if they had anymore because i only saw that one. so tempted to pick it up, but i was running low on cash. managed to pick up the comic ($10) though. the story is actually pretty good, and while the art isn't super fantastic like the covers are, it's still a great job. definitely couldn't say that with the Malibu Comics version... bleech! and the comic also has an ugly "Blockbuster exclusive" bit on the cover too.Quote:

It'd be great if they were XBox controllers.Quote:

Depends on if they're waiting for a whole arc to finish before doing another TPB or if they will do 6 issues a TPB like they did with the first one (and maybe throw in the Summer Special chapter, too).Quote:

Issue 10 Cover A
Issue 12 Cover A

I think you guys can figure out what issue 11 looks like...
Oh hell yes!Quote:

This one was obviously used, as well, but it didn't look shitty at all, so I took it, anyway. Anyone else seen this blatant disrespect for merchandise?
...and when do you think some more controller's'll be announced? I still think some'll be XBox controllers.
