i went in today to see if my next games shipped to see this
NEW RELEASES (Just taking the top 12)
gamefly must be selling off a lot of their stuff or more people are joining..
New releases on
PS2
9 out of 12 are on SHORT WAIT
Gamecube
6 out of 12 SHORT WAIT
XBOX
9 out of 12 SHORT WAIT
GBA
4 out of 12 SHORT WAIT
DS
3 out of 12 SHORT WAIT
PSP
2 out of 10 SHORT WAIT
just thought that PS2 and XBOX was sort of high on the short wait list ..... i had
Radiata Stories on my list and its never moved off SHORT WAIT since it came out
whats nuts is that is 75% of the new last 12 Releases on PS2 and XBOX are SHORT WAIT... I guess getting New releases anytime soon is something that is gone for the short time ... maybe they are getting ready to open up their east coast center cause i never remember this many games being short wait ... OR they are buying ALOT less games

Think about it, it's September, not many games are coming out now! The ones that are coming out are getting rented fast because...well...there's nothing else out there!
Then you have Radiata Stories, a fairly non-popular and long RPG, they didn't get many copies I'm sure, and a lot of people have it on their want list, but being a LONG RPG it's gonna take time for people to complete and ship back...then you have to wait your turn in line.
Do you really need the games on release day? I'm sure they have tons of other great games you haven't played and would enjoy.
Wait till the end of the year when 50 new games are coming out each week, it won't be so bad.

just saying im shocked that some of those games are on short wait list..... have you played Radiata stories ??? IF so is it worth 40 bucks buying.. I might just end up buying it..
funny thing there is a few more games i want to rent but the release dates keep being pushed back.. RIght now on my Q list i have no games in stock cause i dont want to see a Sub game ship before Radiata .. What kind of sucks is I had Mario Baseball in my Q and it was in PROCESS of shipping and both times it got kicked out to SHORT WAIT even though it was IN STOCK NOW When it was in process of shipping...

Nope, never played Radiata Stories. The reason the keep getting pushed back is because everyone thinks their games are gonna sell SO MUCH BETTER if they release them in December. :roll:
