Just picked this up today. Any thoughts on this game?

Hi Darlene...

I Totally Like this Game...Alot of Kool puzzles..

Graphics were VERY Good also..You will enjoy it

Mine was shipped from Interact on the 12th, awaiting its arrival

Darlene did you buy it in a store? I haven't found it yet.

I've seen it at Best Buy.

Yes, picked it up at BestBuy, $29.99.

I tried to pick one up at Best Buy on the 10th, they said they had 4 in stock. But then they told me it was a defective batch and had to be returned, and they would get mor in a couple of weeks. Did this happen to any of you guys?

Becky I don't live too far away from you. Which Best Buy were you at?

thracia,

Just had to comment on your funny reason for editing. :cat:
I did hear a buzz one time or another about some games released that are defectives and are recalled. It is not a rare incidence.

Yea, I got this kitten about 3 weeks ago, very rambunctious. but adorable. He just realized today that he could attack my fingers while I type.

I will try my Best Buy again today. they say they have ND White Wolf in stock also. Maybe I'll come home with 2 new games!!!

They say that cats are secret angels in disquise who bless our keyboards everytime they walk over them.

inferno, I don't have cats but I'm not sure French bulldogs will bless my keyboard though.
Wait - they might bless it in another way.

Good luck, thracia. Bring home goodies.

Hi Thracia --

I saw the game at the Best Buy off of 347 -- the one just east of Nicholls Rd. I did hear that there was a problem with the installation programs on one of the Secrets of Atlantis batches that was released early. It's good that they are going out of their way to replace it!

Dave from Interact also contacted me that the items he received were also deffective and thus the shipping delayed slightly more, but it's on its way now

Hi Becky and Butcher,


Just got back from Best Buy(Patchogue-for Becky).No luck on Secrets of Atlantis, but I did score the only Nancy Drew on the shelf. I may have to try the Best Buy on 347(thanks Becky)

PS Infernoj13USA, I must have been blessed adout 80 times while I tried to write that earlier post. Safe now, kitten sleeping

Not to me since I got the DVD version a few months ago. But I have a friend in Canada who ended up with one of the defective CD versions and had to take it back. The store told her they'd have the replacements in in about a week. It's a shame this happened. The game is one of the better ones released recently (IMO) and I'm afraid this is going to turn people off of it.

Hi Becky


Thanks for the tip. I was able to get the game at the Best Buy you mentioned. They had about 8 copies. I just hope the one I got isn't one of the defective ones. I went to two other Best Buys and they didin't have any.


thracia

Yes, I'm unable to install the game, two error messages come up. I'll take it back to BestBuy and see what they do.

Looks like it's one of the defective batch.

I'm glad to hear this game is getting to the stores. I hadn't bought it because my old computer wasn't up to the specs. But I just got a new Dell with Vista and lots of Ram, so I hope now I can get all those new games that were just too much for my old computer.

BTW, I'm still trying to get used to Vista - I love some features but am very annoyed by others.(Like having to log on with a password every time I turn my computer on.)

I am sure there must be a way to disable that??

***Here*** are some instructions for enabling automatic logon in Vista.
