I was pleasantly surprised to find this at Walmart this morning for $19.96. I thought it was to be released in another week. yay

Good for you, Ewil02! I pre-ordered and paid for Gray Matter from Lace Mamba Global back in August 2010. The price was higher and I still haven't received the game. That spells poor customer service and it makes me wonder if I'll ever get it.

The release date from Lace Mamba is Feb.25. I ordered from them to.
I paid 22.448856 U.S. dollars. I guess they round it off. Sure is a lot of pennys.

Michele rose-

Good luck. I was going to order Edna and Harvey from them, but I got a security certificate warning when I went on their site-apparently there has been some issues with ordering from them. I then ordered from Dave at Interact and got the game in 2 days. Remarkable!

Maybe if you went back on their site and logged into your account, there would be a status update. luck

Thanks for the info Ewil02. thumbsup That is a pretty good price.


It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

Richard-

You're right! I just went there- no warning. They must have corrected whatever it was that caused the issue.

Thanks for the info kjos. I await Friday! It's a mystery to me as to why pre-orders would not be fulfilled from the parent company prior to stocking at a big box store!

hehe, I paid 50 Euros for the special edition - that's like 70 dollars smile

And I was a beta tester!


There's definitely definitely definitely no logic to human behaviour.

I went to my Walmart online site and found Gray Matters listed for $29.99 not $19.99, maybe online is more expensive than in store. I plan to go by tomorrow and pick it up at either price.

Kjos,
The special edition simply contains a bunch of stuff, like postcards, a poster, cards, and the soundtrack.

I bought it in a shop called "Game Stop" here in Berlin, the day it got out in Germany, which was about 3 months ago.
I have to say I didn't really care for the price, I wanted to have it quickly, I wanted to buy it shelved (cause it excited me), and I wanted to support the game and the genre.
And it's 70 Dollars, not 50 :-)


There's definitely definitely definitely no logic to human behaviour.

I went to my Walmart yesterday and they didn't have it, but they have very few pc games anyway. Maybe I'll check back there tomorrow to see if it came in.

It still wasn't at my Walmart today. However, I noticed Amazon has the download for $24... instead of $29...

I'm going to wait a few more days.

My copy arrived today, too, but I have several games already on the go right now - so Gray Matter is looking like a "treat in waiting" !!
