Still waiting on my delivery. Went out and bought Yakuza at Best Buy. They had about 10 units behind the counter.

Ohhh that's gotta be so frustrating

still awaiting my shipping notice... got in touch with antonline and they said i should receive a notice anytime between now and the 12th

but at least i have solace in that i saved about 60 dollars by not picking one up in a store if they happen to be there while i wait

Worst part is that I'm waiting at my parents house. Microsoft viewed my address, which is 1 mile away, as a foreign address. My parents are on vacation. I'm guessing signature isn't required, but I'd rather not risk it.

You're in NE Penn? It's not like you're on the Canadian border or something. WTF

And I previously bought an XBOX One from Microsoft with no problems.

That's how a lot of online sellers used to be. In some states, if the store does not have any physical locations in state, they do not have to charge sales tax. That's how Amazon used to work in PA.
Missouri changed their laws a few years ago to charge sales tax for all online orders. Not sure why Antonline doesn't apply.

Maybe cause they're based in GA? Dunno. Feeling really good about GA lately.

Many times. Outer box had to be retaped shut - 1 edge was smashed and removed. Actual unit box smashed like all hell. Thankfully, giant 1" foam around console seemed to have protected it. Downloading 775mb system update now. Fed Ex :finger:

More solace for me in that even though it wasn't shipped early, at least it won't be in some dingy warehouse full of goons and forklifts.

A lot of nice surprises with backwards compatibility. Sekiro is locked at 60fps.

The only thing I have to report is that after downloading updates all day, the console is not even warm. Maybe I'll actually get to play tomorrow.
