I see GameStop.com has already imploded only 2 minutes past the hour

Custom Special

Were you expecting otherwise?

Gonna have to camp out, man.

Been at this computer since 7am with Gamestop open. I'm ready.

Do you have three pages open: one for the main page, one for a Injustice search, and one with Injustice already in your cart?

Did you remember to log in?

Did you store your billing and shipping address?

Did you store your billing payment options?

Do you also have the site open on mobile which may access a different server?

Then you're prepared.

I didn't pre-add it to my cart because I figured the sale would not take then.

Also, I don't have a way of accessing it via mobile

I Win Swordfights

Yeah I gave up the first minute my page was just loading and nothing happened

I just don't care about injustice that much

blaze_zero

Didn't make the cut. By the time it finished loading my shopping cart, it said that the item was deleted due to availability.

Talbain and Victor for MvC4

Fig-D

Yeah, I've been trying at this Injustice thing for a bit now. I'm still seeing the 360 version as in stock and available for $9.99, and I can even put it in my cart, but I'm getting timeouts from the GameStop website at every turn. Like, I'm willing to give Injustice a shot at that price, but first I have to beat the servers at SFxT to get in.

Walt

I got stuck at Checkout

a deal this shit hot is like a gauranteed DDOS

It totally took and the mobile site is faster than the regular one.

Except the mobile browser app crashed on me. Thanks Safari on the iPhone!

And both sites go down!

Walt

if we are lucky, one person will have bought Injustice for 9.99

as was their plan all along

B:L

Annnnd they're out.

Think I'm gonna get Injustice today.

$10 is a mega-good deal.

that's one way to look at it

Walt

shopping cart has been dead for a while now

I attempted to buy it at 9.99 literally the second the site showed it (I was hammering refresh) and I still didn't get it.

Baroque And Roll

Yep. Site crashed entirely. Fuck

Walt

they are theoretically still selling the CEs for $50 off although hilariously you can't order that either

also at this juncture I'd like to remind everyone on the PC this is known as "a normal Steam sale" and there is no stock limit

Another way to look at it is this:

For just five dollars more you can buy Guilty Gear, MvC1/2, Vampire Savior, Virtua Fighter, Skullgirls, and much more.

You know, actually good fighting games.

Baroque And Roll

None of which are games I have fun playing right now.

Do you have GGXXAC+ on 360? I'd be willing to play it more.

You wanna feel these butterflies?

blaze_zero

Only if you also want those butterflies to see the top of the screen.

Maybe upside down.

Relevant point is near the end of the video. The video itself, though, is also good.

So the new Injustice patch apparently broke Wonder Woman's B3.

Again.

Walt

turns out Injustice was coded by high college students which is incidentally also the target demographic for Injustice

interrobang

injustice is actually coded by the same people who are responsible for coding league of legends

interrobang

i really want to learn to play order sol when +R comes out but he seems really fucking hard

Theodore Floosevelt

really wish there was a GG with good netplay right now

So the only thing they took from league of legends was shit coding practices.

Walt

well I just got a confirmation from Gamestop that my 9.99 PS3 version of Injustice is a go

so you know, lol?

Theodore Floosevelt

everyone should play order sol so that they can have sweet anime intros against my slayer

I Win Swordfights

damn dude. what'd your nephew ever do to you?

Walt

wow Scorpion's meterless damage sucks unless you have trait

but if you have trait you can do like

ji1 1,1 trait b1,2 teleport punch f2 2 u3 spear and get like 31%, lots of meter, and a pretty good oki setup (safe jump or dash up high/low)
