Mario! What gives?

On the sidhe site you offer a free controller with the game if you pre-order it BEFORE September the 8th.....

Yet you have no confirmed release date (yet you have September emblazoned everywhere in a blatant form of arousal).....

Um.....

That is a little rich if you ask me.

Consumers having to commit by the seduction/enticement (extortion) of a controller to a totally uncommitted time-frame....

Like I said,

What gives?

It's september - stop being completely silly.

 

dont rush them dude. do you want another rugby 2005?

 

That brings back bad memories....

I bought both rugby 04 and 05, and they were both supposed to be the best rugby game around at the time.

I'm waiting before I buy any rugby game in future!

 

yeah thats my story





the real reason im not going to buy it on the first day is becasue im poor

 

You could sell Rugby 2004 and Rugby 2005 to raise some dosh...

 

Reason I aint gonna buy this is because Ill have used up my gaming budget.

Madden 06, NHL and NBA 2K6 all Come out within around 2 months of each other, as well as I had to pay extra to get NCAA 06 from Aussie Land.

Maybe Christmas Time... Or March 2006.

 

It's many people's story, although I avoided R2005.

 

You can have mine!

Go on take it.... it won't bite!

For free, go on, have it!

Please...

 

Rugby 2005 isn't that bad;

*ducks*

 

Well, do you want it then?

 

If you're being serious, yeah, why not? Not tried it at all.

 

Ummm, it was just a joke.

You can have 2004 though if you pay for delivery. That is serious.

 

No thank you, I farmed that out as part of the deal for the original Rugby League!

 

Didn't fall for the bait!

Who took 2004 as part of the deal? Think it's worth about £5 new nowadays!

 

GAME

They gave me £12 for it but I'd only had it for a month. Kept me busy-ish until RL came out.

 

Extortion? Nobody is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to preorder.

Geez, HES provide the fans with a great free gift and somebody has to find a way to put a negative spin on it

If you are uncomfortable to preorder without a release date, then don't. Simple as that.

 

the 8th of september is proabbly an estimate of when the retailers think the game would go gold or enter production.

 

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div>

oh yes how nice is HES

your the PR person so you should be saying preorder this game
this game is good preorder it.

 

Look, obviously the controller is a marketing tool, to 'help' people preorder, but I agree with Mario, if you have problems with preordering, don't do it. But if you want the controller....

 

i heard its coming out this thursday..................is it?
