All-Purpose Fire Pro Returns Superthread 3

[Sajoa Moe]

So after going to Gamestop again today, I broke down and ordered it on Amazon. I chose standard shipping so it'll probably be here by next Friday at the latest.

[viscera]

Well, I just checked with EB Games again and they said it's still not showing. Luckily... I have another plan. This other small game store I know about will apparently order the game for five dollars, so I may be able to get my hands on it yet. I guess I will do that.

[Indigocrates]

f***, Amazon.ca still out of stock.

WTF, how many copies were actually produced!?

...That list is insanity.

Sweet, thanks a lot

Mike Awsome? If so, SMURF YES!

Also, AmDrag and D-Lo Brown are about to win tag belts in my game. Hell yes.

On an somewhat related note, in my FPW Wrestle War tournament, Mike Awesome just Awesomebombed X-Pac into oblivion.

Me are happieys.

Can you Awesome Bomb people out of the ring?

Came today for me. Some impressions:

Damn, little tougher than the GBA Fire Pro. I'm gonna have to work my up from 1 and 2 as far as computer skill.

Everything seems so smooth and organic, especially the counters.

Multiple Canadian Destroyers on opponents all around? Awesome.

You can have an 8 way match, that can be timed arrival, elimination, over the top rope, or first to a finish. That's right, 8 guys, first to a pinfall wins.

Lots more strike attacks then what I'm used to.

Great to able to use strong grapples without pressing two buttons.

AJ Styles seems to have the superkick and the Styles Clash as finishers.

Finally figured out how to pick up weapons.

The flashy entrances for certain buildings look great.

The spear/gore is smoother looking.

Will probably have a WWE/ECW ring by the end of the night.

I got my buy.com order today. Have to return my Amazon copy.

[samachine]

Amazon apparently shipped my order, anyone else have the issue of not being able to track it though?

So is Toys R Us the only major chain that will carry this? I won't be able to get a replacement PS2 until after Christmas, so I don't want to pay an arm and a leg to buy it online.

According to Mark Johnson from Agetec, Best Buy and KMart are carrying it, Target isn't. That's all I've heard so far.

And I'm shut out, since GameCrazy said they didn't get the game today, and it might be next week before they get it.

Urge to kill rising...

I don't think so. Not on GBA at least.

But you can German suplex them out of the ring, unbelievable enough.

I have seen Germans out of the ring. There was one match I watched in which Minoru should've died at least four times.

I've been playing it for a little bit now. Thus far, I have been pitting wrestlers again Quinton Jackson in the octagon. I have no idea why I'm doing this, but it's fun. My results thus far:

vs. Bryan Danielson: Won both times; KO in the second round in the first match (I'm doing two matches a piece), submission in the second round in the second match.

vs. Low Ki: Won both times; submission in the third round both times.

vs. Takeshi Morishima: Won the first time; KO in the third round. Lost the second time; submission in the third round.

vs. Petey Williams: Won the first time; submission in the second round. Lost the second time; KO in the second round. (Four Canadian Destroyers can do that to a person.)

[Alucard]

I just gave up on the stores and decided to order it and have that bad boy overnighted. Wish me luck.

I am pretty sure there are moves off of the apron in this version, I remember seeing some videos on YouTube with them.

I know in the GBA version you can be knocked out of the ring by a lot of things, even the BURNING HAMMMAAAAAHHHHH

[Captain Wonderful]

I finally have something going; I went to a little mom-and-pop shop, because those seem to be the only places getting it. The guy said they ordered it but got "screwed over by the distributor" (surprise), and they'll call me when they get it in. So...horray!

[BorneAgain]

Great part of this game? Four on four matches.... in a cage, in a barbed wire match, and in the explosive C4 match. Had a great bloody six-man tag with Sting and Road Warriors against Vader and the Miracle Violence Connection.

This game just rocks beyond all belief.

[Klutch]

well my good news came today, they are shipping it to me should be in by middle of next week . . . which is great because I will have it for my vacation.

[Ace Diamond]

I propose we assume THQ sabotaged Agetec's distribution methods.

[cartern923]

I got it at the Nebraska Furniture Mart (in Kansas by the way) tonight...13.75...WHAT A DEAL! I almost felt like I was stealing it for that price.
