I'm not sure if you mean the disc only version. But this is simply not the case with the download version.

You guys know the CE is back in stock online for both consoles right?

Yeah I mean the retail physical disc version. I played through the digital version already and only had two issues.
1) Glitch in episode 3 where the game world clipped and made lee walk around in a weird void then froze.
2) When I downloaded episode 5, I hit play and it took me back to episode 1. As soon as I saw that I quickly powered my xbox off to avoid a new save and rebooted it and it worked after that.

I keep hearing the disc has framerate and stutters (which the digital version had as well), but supposedly its so bad that you can't do any action events in time. Also that the disc version wont let you continue past episode 1. This is what people are saying so who knows.

Beat me to it. Was just about to post this. Good luck with getting them shipped to your house in mint condition...

Be interesting to see how quickly these sell out. I honestly feel the only thing this set has going for it is how limited it is (isnt it?). If your a walking dead fan you should already own the compendium and that is pretty much the only collectible item in this package.

I was just about to post both platforms were back in stock. Grabbed a copy. Seems, at least in my area, there were less preorders than

GS is notorious for shipping out damaged CE games or something?

Maybe I should just pay $10 for one day shipping and not risk it on Value shipping?

I ordered the Witcher 2 Dark Edition from them and it came just fine and that is a similar shape. Although it was stuck in an oversized box with NO padding. So I kinda feel I got lucky. If you REALLY wanted this set itd be worth it to risk unless you want to pay the $150 on eBay.

If it comes all damaged I'll just return it to the store - no harm no foul.

Honestly, the retail version of this game looks like a disaster from what I'm reading on other forums, at least on the 360 side of things.

Edit: looks like the PS3 version is having some bad glitches, too.

so something interesting happened, i went in to pick up my CE after doing a few trade ins to pay it off, and then they told me the CE i preordered was for the xbox even though i preordered it for the PS3.

So the guy said he was just going to have the ps3 CE shipped to me and sold me a standard copy to play for now to make up for the screw up.

The kicker is that I will be able to return the standard copy for a full refund once i receive the CE in the mail, so yea, not a bad day.

Hopefully you got that in writing.

Glad this came back in stock. Was able to order a PS3 version. Thanks for calling this out!

Lmao at preorders only. Also, SAVER does NOT work with this. I refuse to pay $10 above MSRP because GS wants to charge for shipping. Looks like I'll still be calling stores on Friday looking for a non picked up preorder.

o yea definitely, he wrote it on my receipt and in some book and i've seen him there for years so if some guy gives me trouble ill just look up the cashier on my receipt and ask for him

it should also be dated in the book as 12/12/12 so it's kinda hard to miss that

They still offer "value" shipping which is free

These were preorder only, just because they have some in stock doesnt mean TellTale just quickly made more and sent them out. Its been 24 hours since the games been released, all preorder copies that could not be processed or were cancelled are now available through the site. Once these are gone that will be it. This happens EVERY time a Collectors Edition is released, the next couple of days it will pop back up on the site and then its gone.

I just called a local Gamestop and they had 1 Xbox 360 CE that wasn't preordered and said he would hold it for me today. Looks like Ill be heading their after work today

I'm returning this thing now. Playing the PS3 version and just finished the first episode, but I can't even pick dialogue options a good amount of the time, because of the skipping.

There were a few of the QTE that I nearly messed up as well, because the screen wouldn't even load.

Damn. Might have to return the 2 copies I bought and get MS points as gifts so they can download the game instead. Heard the 360 version has the same issues.
