    Default WFC pre-order exclusive with Gamestop - Shockwave for multiplayer.

    Found this over at TFW2005. Makes me wonder if EB or GAME will get something similar for Australia, and if not how we would go about getting Shockwave.

    I had seen that as well. Hopefully people outside of the US can actually get him. Strange that they are making him a playable character. Not a bad thing, just strange. Never would have imagined it.

    I did ask EB last Friday about it, they are not sure when it will be out, but odds are they will have some sort of preorder bonus. They might get this, but we won't know until they know I suppose.

    I've noticed EB are hopeless lately with information about upcoming games. Unless it's for the one or two games they're really plugging, like 'Final Fantasy XVIII' or 'Aliens Vs Predator', they're clueless. Yesterday they couldn't tell me a single thing about 'MAG' which comes out this week, yet when it came time for me to leave they kept pressuring me about pre-ordering it.

    Yea they can be a bit useless at times. I heard along the wire that WFC will be out 30th of June, so hopefully EB will know more about it soon. Still a little while away though.

    Here I thought it was a shockwave figurine.

    The code will be on the internets in no time.

    ^simple solution, don't buy from eb. Get it from bigw or cdwow. I'm hoping for steam myself.

    Or do what I do. Buy it from my work (even though the cost price is usually more expensive than what other stores sell it for) but 'price-match' one of said other stores with a fabricated price.

    I guarantee it'll be a DLC code which is rendered void after use.

    Even if we don't get it, hopefully it will be offered as downloadable content.

    I will likely order this from overseas as I have been doing with all games in the past couple of years - It's less than a third of the local retail price and exactly the same game.
