So, after months of waiting (well, for me) I'm finally going to pick it up tomorrow after I get off of school.
Anyhow, if you didn't know, ToS: DoTNW is an action rpg that lasts about 30-40 hours, which is a shame since the first ToS lasted about 80. Good thing is the price range is about $39.
Well then, is anyone else getting it/ plan on getting it?

I'm getting it once I get back from Georgia on Sunday, assuming I'm not broke.
Else, I'm getting it once I get my next paycheck.
(I better see Genis. >=()

Am I the only one not getting it? I mean sure it'd be cool... But I've got other things to do with my money than to buy what will most likely be a dissapointing sequel to a perfectly good game that could have easily stood on its own

But I've got other things to do with my money than to buy what will most likely be a dissapointing sequel to a perfectly good game that could have easily stood on its own I've already seen the video walkthrough (well, only the first 15 minutes of it and the final part, but it was japanese so I couldn't understand what they said xD) and spoiled it pretty badly, but the end of the game looks very very cool. and news: I called the EB games to check if it was in yet and they said no. I asked when and the guy said he hopes tomorrow. and it costs $49.99!!! I hear people saying how it's going to be $39.99, but I'm starting to feel like I'm getting gypped. I'm still going to get it, but I'll have to borrow money from my dad. 2 out of three strikes for EB

Omg. Yeahhh! I called Gamestop today to verify everything and they told me it is $49.99. Yet, when I was at a different GS branch the other week, I checked their catalog of in-coming games and it said ToS DotNW is only $39.99... >.> Sounds sketch. But eh. Not really surprised since most Wii games are $50 atm. I figured it was a mistake or something. $39.99 would've been nice, though. :\ lol and that "bad sequel theory" only seems to apply to movies. Mainly Disney. >.> I have yet to buy a horrible sequel to an amazing game. EDiT: I'm getting it once I get back from Georgia on Sunday, assuming I'm not broke. Else, I'm getting it once I get my next paycheck. (I better see Genis. >=() lol from my understanding, every character from ToS will be in DotNW. But according to HBO, not all of them will stay in your party the rest of the game once you get them...? If that's the case with my dear Presea, then she better show up a lot earlier than she did in ToS at least. ;o Also: What about Zelos? He doesn't die if you don't end up having Kratos back in your team, right? So like... is it just assumed that Zelos never died? >.>

We need to discuss the game. Dx I love it so far, just kind of dragging atm. You know, with how games are at the beginning. "Hello there, let's take 20 minutes to explain a basic 3 hit combo. First start by hitting the A button... Good... good. Now let's press that 2 more times with rhythm. Ok, now let's do that again, but let's test that out on that imp. Remember, 3 repeated taps on A. A A A" >.>

Yeah the game does drag on in the beginning, which was kinda annoying. And I hated how it keept flashing back to whatever Richter said 5 minutes ago. Is it just me or are the puzzles really really frustrating?

"Hey guys, let's not follow Lloyd to flanoir and stop him from collecting the ice centurion core which can ultimately destroy the world! Let's just stay in izoold and kill the arsonist frog!"
DoTNW features excellent logic, i must say

but it's fun to pick on the game's bad parts.
I was in the temple of shadow and Richter (guy with red hair) was the boss, so as soon as the fight starts he instantly hits me with his hi-ougi/mystic arte. So my entire party drops down to 1hp, lmao.

who mentions hbo now? and yay i beat the game, so i'm currently running through it again on mania mode and with 2x exp, and I hope to unlock Unknown mode. And yeah, this one boss fight took thirty minutes. He wasn't strong at all, just he had 40k hp and kept healing 10k, and I was only doing 100 damage per hit. but I got 30 grade from my 150+ combo and doing many unison attacks.

Yeah... but... Either; I know exactly what Mr.L was implying and I'm uber pissed about it or I'm just over sensitive. Probably the latter. It wouldn't be surprising to me if that was the case. lol
That plus... that's not even a reason why I have an interest for Kratos.
