i ended up getting one. I remember hearing about Machinima since my old friend from Metal Gear Online deals with them for their videos that they make. I think there the ones that pay them too (I know some one does).

Anyways if you do get it once you confirm everything it takes you back to the Machinima.com site. Doesn't say anything on your Amazon account but you'll still get an email though.

Edit: NVM it'll show up in your Amazon Payment section not in order history.

They were charging tax for me, which kinda killed the deal. Might as well get it in Amazon with release date delivery.

Machinima is a video site. Very reliable.

No Tax!

thanks guysAmazon Payments is handling the payment process, not the ordering and fulfillment. That's handled through Machinima. Think of it as Paypal or Google Checkouts handling the payment, so they do get involved with the process of fixing issues with SNADs and the like.

Amazon Payments info:
https://payments.amazon.com/sdui/sdui/about?nodeId=6120

That's still up to Machinima to take care of the order, so I think I'll pass.

I did rip out the OP's referral-type code in the link, as the new link I have up there works just the same.

How do you check to see is in your payment section? I fooled around for a ew minutes and couldn't figure it out.

Think I'll stick w/ the $52 deal I got in on w/ Amazon. I think release date delivery is worth an extra $2 anyway, even if this is legit. ;)

Taboner
02-21-2009, 05:20 PM
I have it $55 on Amazon, but I have release date delivery so it evens out.

You can go to
payments.amazon.com

or go to your "Your Account", then on the right side just above the yellow "Sell your stuff" button is "Amazon Payment Account"

I pre-ordered it from amazon.com with the Home outfit for $52, but wonder if I should switch over to this. I never heard of this company and don't want:

- crappy DVD made by some random dude and burned onto DVD+R (there is no information about the DVD and are they finishing the game in 90 minutes or is it just a short walkthrough? very vague...)
- non-US version of the game i.e. some import (the likes that GoGamer.com sells)
- significantly delayed shipping like the dd fiasco with SFIV CE PS3

It would cost me $2 more because of taxes.

It surprises me that many of you question the legitimacy of Machinima, but I guess most of you don't play that many PC games.

Won't let me buy it. Keeps saying this crap.

Me too. I was going to get it a TRU since they have a $10 gift card with it, or so I read a few days ago, but if I can save $10 and avoid another trip to TRU then I'll take this.

Are you looking at your Amazon.com account, or your payments.amazon.com account? It only shows in the latter.

Treeman

I ordered 2 by accident and I tried emailing them through their website and through amazon's "contact the seller" and they didn't respond since Saturday. Anyone know how I can surely cancel my second order?

Nevermind, they just canceled it now.

Yeah, i ended up figuring it out, it's listed in the amazon payments account. Can't wait for killzone!

This is a really good deal IMO. Where else can you get this game for 50 dollars? The shipping should be pretty fast too. Plus, it has a bonus DVD!

Anyone know when they plan on shipping these out? I kind of expected some sort of notice from the site by now, at least a confirmation. I did get the notice from Amazon that the payment went through.

jzee923

That's what I was wondering too. I don't want to order it until I know it's shipping out within a couple of days. They may not have any in stock for all we know.

DrunknDragun
02-27-2009, 03:07 PM
All I got was the Amazon payment confirmation, nothing from Machinima. I emailed them yesterday asking if my order went though and in like 5min I got a response saying "Yes". You can ask them though, but I'd probably wait till Saturday night since they might be getting theirs in today (release date) since there not like a retail store.

jzee923
02-27-2009, 03:15 PM
i just emailed them and got this response
"Ship either today or tomorrow. I will provide tracking as soon as it ships. You will receive in 3-5 business days from today."

so it looks like everything is going ok so far

02-27-2009, 03:39 PM

I still have not been notified by them if it has shipped or not

sengar

I e-mailed them on Saturday asking about shipping status and received this:

" Shipping was set up today by amazon and you will have your product next week via standard shipping and all tracking numbers will be given by Monday."

Have Machinima respond to anyone else email yet? Because I sent them an email and they have not respond back to me for two days now. Is there any other ways to contact them?

They responded to me within a day of my message.

Also, I got my tracking # last night.

i still haven't received a tracking number for my order.

sengar
03-02-2009, 10:03 AM
The tracking number I received for the game is FedEx SmartPost (annoying FedEx USPS hybrid). Hopefully it won't take 2-3 weeks to show up like the UPS/USPS shipments from Buy.com.

People who got a response back from Machinima. How did you contact them?

DrunknDragun
03-02-2009, 05:39 PM
For anyone that hasn't received an email about the shipping, it may have already been sent out. I haven't received shipping confirmation either. But look at the transaction on the payment amazon site. Mine says its closed but when I open the invoice, it has a tracking #.

i can care less about factory shrinkwrap. I'll have no complaints getting the game for $50.

Sucks for those that bought the copy on release day hoping to return this one.

Did anyone get theirs yet? I sent them an email asking about it Monday and they said that everyone should have it this week. This week is running out.
