Yup. I'd link you directly but it wants to track your shopping experience through the magic that is cookies. Anyway, go to www.BestBuy.com and put 6227665 in the search box. <br><br>This is the DVD special edition UT2K4, that comes on a DVD and includes a Logitech headset w/mic.<br><br>*Did I mention there's a rebate coupon included for UT2K3 owners?* <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... ambit>XMEN Gambit</A>&nbsp; <IMG HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10 SRC="http://www.xmenclan.org/images/x.gif" BORDER=0> at: 3/16/04 8:39 am<br></i>

Yeah, I ordered one, too. <br><br>One of the cool new gametypes in this version is called onslaught. All you PlanetSide players will like this concept. Each base has a master node, which the opposing team must destroy to win the map and cannot be repaired. Connecting the two bases are a series of other nodes which must be "taken," which I presume means being touched by a member of your team or having control of that area for a number of seconds. You can only take a node if you own a node which connects to it, and you can only attack the nme master node if you own a node connected to it.<br><br>One thing that makes this interesting is that the interconnection of the nodes between the bases is randomized. So the strategy might be different each time you play the map. <p></p><i></i>

Oh..I know...I have been playing the demo for weeks. And that by far is my favorite one.

Well, I found the link on [H]ardOCP, so that would likely explain the sold-out condition. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>I'm surprised Ice and I got to it quickly enough, considering.<br> <p></p><i></i>

Well, it was too good to be true....I got this email from BestBuy tonight.

Well, I called them today about my order. First thing she said was "I was afraid this was what you were calling about..." She said they are getting inundated by calls about it. She told me to call her back tomorrow.<br><br>Apparently they did not receive the number of units they were expecting from Epic. I told her this was unacceptable and that I would like a raincheck on it. She said to call back tomorrow and that they would have more information on it.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rolleyes --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><table border=0><tr><td><embed align=left src=http://www.thzclan.com/avatars/ezice.swf menu=false quality=high bgcolor=#000000 width=217 height=166 type=application/x-shockwave-flash pluginspage=http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/dow ... <td><table border=0 style='Filter: Shadow(Color=#BB1403,Direction=255)'><tr><td><span class='usertitle'>XMEN Iceman [DTM]<br>Founder and Leader of the Base Tribes XMEN Clan<br>Proud member of the Dragon Talon Mercenaries teamplayers Guild<br>Citizen of New Fenecia<br><br>You weren't much of a challenge - T2 bot after killing Iceman<br><br>- click on avatar for links - no, not sausage links!</span></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></p><i></i>

Well, this is hardly the first time this has happened to them. You'd think a company like Best Buy would have tighter controls on their web ordering process. Unless, of course, they've got ulterior motives. <p></p><i></i>
