13 sentinels is on my radar but I'm on the fence about that battle system. I might just hold off a couple months until it drops further.

I was on the fences about it due to the combat system shown in the trailer/demo.

But I got really into it once I played a couple levels, the ost really helps, and tho it looks abstract, the feel of using different weapons to hold it together on high difficulty was super fun.

Is the eshop card 10% discount only for one day and this sat only?

The English VO also is no slouch.  Stinks Atlus couldn't just wait and have it on-disc (it's a patch), but regardless, the English voice actors do a superb job in this one. And thus far, it does look like the whole game is fully voiced.

I ended up picking up way too many titles as usual. RE2, RE3, Man Eater, Persona 5 Royal, Saints Row IV, Trials of Mana, Medieval, and Uncharted Lost Legacy.

You and me both.

 

Lets just say my Switch library went from 1 to 20 in a span of 30 days.

Yeah, I actually didn't pick up too many games.  You certainly grabbed an awesome set of titles!

Heads up to elite/plus members to make sure you check your shipping charges when you check out from bestbuy.  I was ordering 2 games and the cheapest option was $3.99.  I had to order each game separately for the FREE option to show up.  Not sure if it was just a temporary glitch.

No.  I have the Sony x900f 55".  It's my first and only UHD tv.  Looks amazing to me, and I love its sometimes blinding hdr with sunlight and such in games.  I've never seen anything other than a movie playing on an OLED in a store and couldn't see in that case why it was so much better.  Because for the same price as the 65 OLED CX I want, I could get a monster 75 Sony x900h (actually cheaper).  But people keep telling me get the OLED.  I'm too indecisive and research things way too much.

If you mainly game on your TV, I would say that spending a ton on an OLED might not be the best bang for your buck. I won't get anything but an OLED myself because I love watching 4k HDR movies in a dark, man cave type environment as well as gaming. I prefer the extra quality over even a cheaper, larger size non OLED. But generally speaking, size is the biggest regret people make when they buy a TV and something bigger with quality that is fine by your eyes might be a better option than a smaller size TV but better picture quality unless you are a PQ person like me.

Oh yea both language got legit all-star casts.

Sooo question, best buy shipped me one of my items, security case and all. Any ideas how I can get this open? Or do I try to explain to customer service with my order number and tracking number for proof?

What a bunch of morons. Yeah I think you can just bring it back with receipt. Sucks you have to make the trip.

Maybe you can try and open it with a power saw, cut off a couple of fingers and file a lawsuit... but you probably should just bring it into customer service and keep us posted on what is sure to be an interesting case.

Wow that is impressive.  I have to wonder how such a major screw up could happen.  As it's not like with those security tags at say kohls and such where they get left on occasionally.

I had this happen with a Target order once. I just brought them right to Customer Service in-store and they opened the cases. I'd bring everything including the box they arrived in to be on the safe side.

[itzd4n]

Thanks! I'll give it a try tomorrow after work. This will make for an interesting situation going in for sure.

[YoshiFan1]

Years ago, that happened to me at Sears (I was buying a few games and didn't notice at the time the 1 game with the security case wasn't removed). The employee told me that the case was included with the game. I had to explain to him it's to stop people from stealing games and the case belonged to the store.

Sounds like a new hire for the warehouse didn't know to take the traps off for a ship to home. That's not as uncommon as it should be and it's even something brought up on the unofficial Best Buy reddit. Just show up with your order number and they can verify the games in the order and they'll open the cases up. You could try to get a manager for a gift card or something, but honestly stores are ungodly swamped right now with minimal staffing - so it might take a while to get one and it was an honest mistake made by someone who's probably received minimal training to do the job, let alone do it right.

How good are you at swinging a hammer?

Have you tried taking it to the store and showing them your receipt/order number?

[MrSloth56]

Honestly a hammer and a screw driver. Takes one or two good hits and way faster. Or just wedge something solid and wrench. They are not that tough to get off if you do not care about being quiet and sneaky about.

Or if you have a decently strong magnet you can probably get the lock to slide and unlock. That's honestly what the store uses to open them. Magnet in a metal or plastic shell.

Their main function is to set the detectors off by the front doors if someone tries to walk out with one shoved in their coat. They are not made to be impervious like fort knox or anything.

On the bright side at least the game arrived in good shape in the bubble mailer since it was so well protected.

Yeah, just slap a 95+ VGA grade label on that sucker and you have a $1000 game to put on ebay!

[shadowysea07]

And the sketchiness intensifies. 

[Tyrok]

You can open it yourself if you have a strong magnet or you know, a flathead screwdriver.

[Jodou]

Have they ever changed the form-factor of those cases? Pretty sure I have one of the magnets to open them lying around in a toolbox from my days working retail and it hasn't looked like the cases ever changed lol. I've had to regularly open the case for a struggling employee if I'm buying something in one as well.

[MidnightMarauder74]

I was waiting for 13 Sentinels to come back in stock at BB but after Amazon matched it, I placed an order. I received it today in a bubble envelope. Surprisingly it came in pristine condition. I wasn’t expecting it to come with the cardboard sleeve and art book. Excited to try this game out.

This was the comment I wish I saw before I left the house this morning lol

Anyways, I went in store and it was pretty anticlimactic as no one really cared and didn't even bother to check my order. CS rep just took my word for it and unlocked the case saying it's rare they do that and how she's never seen it happen before, but it was good because they needed the cases anyway.

Thank you everyone for the help.

God I miss those cheap Sears deals

Picked up the Westinghouse 50" 4K on DOTD for 169 yesterday, been playing Ghost and it looks awesome, cant believe how cheap tvs are now.

[shadowysea07]

I miss kmart more.  They used to have the best video game clearance.  I was able to pick up stuff like tales of symphonia for 19.99 the same month it released when they were around.  Got my dsi from them for 49.99 when they went out of business.
