In The Groove Ships to Retail

So, I called up my local EB Games where I had pre-ordered the game on April 23rd. The guy goes, "We received the games but we don't have anymore". What's the point in pre-ordering? Grr.

I checked in Orlando. The EB nearest my house had two, and they were both already reserved. The outdoor one by the Florida Mall didn't get any in their Friday shipment, but told me there were some in the EB inside the mall. So I got mine.

Load times are t3h sux0r, but the rest of the game is t3h r0x0r!

And I don't have any timing issues. Mine was perfect out-of-the-box, with a 2.0 Ignition Pad. Got 98.6% on Touch Me Hard.

BD, can you confirm that the load times shown in the video posted on ITG freak is pretty representative of the overall load times?

Im so sad. I heard about all these stories here about people getting ITG. I went to check or call, all of the EBgames in my area and none of the seem to have ITG. I even checked some of the Walmarts, Some of the sales people kept insisting It was Eye Toy Groove I was looking for.

All Ive got to say it better be there monday, because Im gettin tired of these revised EBgame dates. After it changes more than 3 times it should have been listed as pending or something telling us their not sure.

My sister has the only copy Somerset Mall EB Games in Troy, MI apparently had.

Load times are annoying until you get used to it. The censorship in Charlene is hilarious.

Anyone else notice that in the scoreboard screenshot on p.17 of the booklet, the player names for the scores on "Perfect" spell out "AHI SE VEN"?

I laughed.

My EBgames here had it. Of course I got it the second I saw it!

For those of you who might call EB or GameStop and hear them say "Oh, we're sold out" (especially if you pre-ordered it), there's a chance that they MIGHT not have even gotten the game yet but looked in the computer, saw that it was an "active" title, and saw that they were out of them. Example being the store I'm an ASM at (Dubuque, IA). It's active in our computer, but we didn't get any in yet. Any of the other people that work there see that, they might just assume they got the few copies of it in and that they sold quickly (we're getting three, two are pre-ordered).

So, those of you who got the "sold-out" message, make sure to call back Monday and/or Tuesday. The game's a pretty underground title, so a lot of the people might just not have any idea what the devil you're talking about, and just think they got a couple copies in and it's gone. (It's happened with other games here, too.)

With that said, hope I got mine on Monday. Peace.

I'm curious if other stores will be carrying the game besides EB and GameStop.

No reason why not--it's just an Up/Right/Down/Left pad. That's all it needs.
