Well 11/07/2006 is fast approaching. Soon Gears of War will be hitting the Xbox 360. Most stores are selling pre-orders for the new fps. At selected stores (I got my duds at Best-Buy) put 5 bucks down and receive a free T-Shirt. Look snazzy at all those Halloween Keggers!
Apperently Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 was put up on the Xbox Live Marketplace and then removed shortly after someone realized that it wasn’t supposed to be up there.Â
How can a mistake like this happen? How can a game that is not supposed to be out for another month get released “by mistake”? Is Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 not complete yet? Is that why the rest of us who were not at the right place, at the right time have to wait?
Before anyone gets defensive, I’m not demanding answers. But don’t tell me it’s not reasonable to wonder how an accident like this can happen.
Why “teasing” in the headline? Remember the Vision Cam getting released at Toys ‘R’ Us by “mistake” almost a whole month before the release date? Many of us had to wait 3 days after the official release date for our stores to have them in stock.
