FFFFFUUUUUUUU --

THEY DIDN'T HAVE IT!!!!!

I asked an employee about the demo and he said that they didn't have it. What got me mad was that the man had already played the game and that it was awesome.

Only certain Best Buys got the demos.. my nearest is in Brick, but they don't have the demo. So the Eatontown Best Buy is where I might go.

Of course the Best Buy demos would have actual figures, Matt. How else are we going to play the game if there were no actual figures?

No you can't buy the figures cause they're not selling them yet, Matt, they'll have one of each character they have with them.

You guys should call first, that way you won't have to go all the way to Best Buy only to find out that they haven't even have the demo today.

Good idea, Aura. Even though I did check online, you can't be too sure....

EDIT: Just called.... and they said that they didn't have it! </3
My sister has to go that way anyway, so i think I will still check...

Really? Which definition?

[1] swag
noun
1. a suspended wreath, garland, drapery, or the like, fastened up at or near each end and hanging down in the middle; festoon.
2. a wreath, spray, or cluster of foliage, flowers, or fruit.
3. a festoon, especially one very heavy toward the center.
4. a swale.
5. a swaying or lurching movement.

verb (used without object)
6. to move heavily or unsteadily from side to side or up and down; sway.
7. to hang loosely and heavily; sink down.

verb (used with object)
8. to cause to sway, sink, or sag.
9. to hang or adorn with swags.

Origin: 1520–30; perhaps Scandinavian; compare Norwegian svaga, svagga to sway, rock

[2] swag
noun
1. Slang .
a. plunder; booty.
b. money; valuables.

2. Australian . a traveler's bundle containing personal belongings, cooking utensils, food, or the like.

verb (used without object)
3. Australian . to travel about carrying one's bundle of personal belongings.

Origin: 1860–65

[3] swag
noun
1. slang property obtained by theft or other illicit means
2. slang goods; valuables
5. a depression filled with water, resulting from mining subsidence

[4] SWAG
Acronym: scientific wild ass guess

Because I'm fairly sure that we're talking free giveaways here. Don't live as though the Urban Dictionary represents language... you probably won't get very far.

EDIT 1:
Quote:
There is another acronym with SWAG: Secretly We Are Gay.


Quote:
In about the 1980s a groug of people invented the term "swag" and called themselves "swag" to them swag ment "secretly we are gay"


[soapbox] Uh huh. And 'round about the 1500's the word was invented. Once again: Urban Dictionary doesn't define ownership of words. Language is one of the original crowdsource movements, but that means I get to fight for definitions even when some seek to usurp them uselessly. [/soapbox]

double post


Please note that these replies are edited into the original post. I'll continue to break completely separate thoughts and replies into different posts, thanks. Don't like it? The report button is to the bottom right of the post.

Sorry for the snark, but I'm fed up with the directions this forum has taken of late. I realize more users are joining and old users are coming back and there a lot of younger users now due to the imminent release of the the new game, but the tone here has gotten pretty bad.

EDIT 2:
Ok. I'm grounding myself from the forum for the rest of the day for bothering to argue on the Internet...you'd think I'd be old enough to know better.

One best buy didn't have it, but said they would set it up later in the week.

The other had a big area with the S:G poster and single pack images, BUT NO DEMO.
