So Who Has OFB, Then?
« on: 2006 March 01, 10:17:51 »
THANKS THIS IS GREAT

It arrived in EB Games in Australia this morning. Something in my hacks folder definitely hates it, now it's a matter of working out what exactly that is...

For those of you who have it: whaddaya think? The new clothes and hairstyles amused me, one in particular...the 'opening a business' bit is driving me insane, though. Maybe I'm going about it the wrong way.

Mine's supposed to get here tomorrow, too.  I'm going to start with a completely fresh install, and slowly port over the hacks I've collected.  You know, do it RIGHT this time!  ;-)

To be honest, I think it is a problem with my computer.  It randomly freezes and then I have to switch it off at the wall as the keyboard & mouse are no longer working - ctrl alt delete doesn't work.  I've had it checked out today and it seems to perform perfectly for anyone other than me  Sad  I'll ring up again tomorrow and see if the IT person can come up with any other ideas on how to fix it.

Sorry about your computer but I'm so glad it isn't the game itself. Smiley  What a shitty time for it to play up though! Sad

I pre-ordered it from Amazon (had a gift certificate that made it pretty cheap), and they're saying it won't ship until March 5th or so. But I'm in no hurry -- I'd rather sit back and read the early reports here so I know what breaks before I install it.  Roll Eyes

Some places around here like BestBuy and CompUSA are supposed to have it today, but you never know because of their delivery schedules.  I'm just going to call ahead before going and will go pick up a copy when someone finally says it's in stock.

Mine is being "processed", so should hopefully be here by the weekend at the latest.  We always get it slightly later here anyway.  The official release date is Friday, but I got NL a couple of days early from the same place.

EB just called to let us know our games were in and we could pick them up anytime, although they told us yesterday that they wouldn't be here until tomorrow. My husband is going to play hookie from work this afternoon and go pick them up. Yay!

Just checked the site and my game has been posted today, so with a bit of luck it'll arrive tomorrow, it only took one day last time.  Going to have to sort out my downloads folder tonight then and get rid of all the meshless crap and the grotty clothes.  There's just too much rubbish in there.

I pre-ordered with Amazon (U.S.) because I had a couple of gift certificates which made it practically free; as of this morning it still hasn't shipped but delivery is esimated at tomorrow??? I don't see how they can manage that. I won't have any time to play it until next week some time anyway (but I still want to hold it in my hot little hands!).

walmart online betrayed me. My order said processing and that it would arrive by March 1 (got overnight shipping). But today I got an email saying it was "delayed" so I cancelled. No point in overnight shipping since I can get it anywhere tomorrow anyway.

Oh that's quite ok LOL. I just want to get rid of the bronchitis cough NOW (yesterday would have been better). But maybe tomorrow I'll still be a bit "weak" and have to leave work early Wink

It arrived at my house at 9:00 this morning (I heart online tracking systems.)  I'm not sure if I'm going to install it right away though.


Yeah.  I will.

Edit: Quick question for those of you who already possess it, or will get their hands on it later today/tomorrow - Are there any ads for the next EP?

Ours should arrive sometime this week. It should be shipped today, and hopefully I will have it by Friday!

I went home the other day to see if my sister and I could find the guide at our local B&N down the block, but unfortunately it wasn't there. Tongue We did peruse the guide for the console version of TS2. We both gagged at the site of Goopy Gilscarbo, who apparently was made into a character as well on the console version. The other sims included Don Tongue and Nina and Dina. I think all the characters were relatively new, or at least neither of us were familiar with them. It actually looked kind of interesting. At least worth a rental, but unfortunately, every time we've gone to our local Blockbuster, we never see it there. Tongue Maybe we'll wait for it to drop down into the bargain bin.

Can't wait for OFB though. Even if I'm still kind of feeling lackluster and lukewarm about it, just the idea of a new EP and new things to do, interact with and what not is something to look forward to.
