Edit: & it didn't arrive. OK, I'm officially super mad. It shipped 2 weeks ago & it should've been here on Tuesday. I can't track it since I got the normal shipping (Air Economy Bubble) & don't know how e-mailing P-A "My order didn't arrive yet!" would help me...

That sounds just like my experience with 9th style. There have been a couple times where it took a long time to get stuff from P-A. I've made 11 orders over the years and everything has always shown up, if that makes you feel any better at all.

This is why I stopped using cheap/untrackable shipping I feel for ya

[zonic505]

Yeah, I've ordered from them 11 times (well, 10, since 1 order was made by my friend & was sent to his house) & gotten everything on time (excluding when I got Happy Sky, but that was near Xmas, so that was understandable).

Well, I e-mailed P-A (though I don't see what good that's gonna do). Sorry to repeat myself, but I hope to receive my copy tomorrow. I guess one good thing about getting your copy later is knowing that people have discovered all the things to unlock, giving you the complete knowledge on how to get everything.

Beatmania IIDX 16: Empress + Premium Best (PS2 Video Review)

Great review. I'll use the article/video to help explain the game to my friends.

10/31 edit: I.....don't think I need to say anything. You know by now what I'm gonna say about the status of my copy.....

.

Way to be optimistic.

empress came with a broken box and a bent manual

thanks play asia

[zonic505]

Yikes. Hope mine doesn't arrive like that (though everything I've gotten from them has arrived in perfect condition)....Did you JUST get your copy today or something?

Hoping to get a response from P-A tomorrow about my copy not arriving (& then watch, it'll arrive tomorrow, though for some reason, I have a bad feeling it won't...).

[Deca]

Weird. everything I've ever received from play-asia has been in perfect condition.

To be fair whether or not it gets messed up enroute doesn't really have anything to do with play-asia, just the delivery service.

That is unless the shipping box was pristine and just the contents were mangled.

outside looks perfect.

the two disc part is broken off and the manual is bend on the corners as if someone touched it and did it.

it just came in today.

either yesterday or today, it was shipped to a friend.

When I got Happy Sky from PA, the manual had a little tear at the top.
I got 9th, Gold and DJT from PA and they arrived perfectly fine though.

[zonic505]

Speaking of which, what does the 2-disc thing look like? Is it in the middle of the box, having a disc on both sides? Is it stacked on top of each other where the discs usually are?

So aside from the bikini pictures (sadly...), all the pics from the past Gallery Mode made it in to Archives (AAA, Expert Mode, Kaiden, etc)? Meaning I can finally see the pics that I couldn't unlock in past styles?

Was it sealed when you got it? And is the outside of the box banged up at all? If it wasn't sealed in plastic when you got it something is seriously wrong and you should contact play-asia and send along some photos.

When you open the CD case, you will see the EMPRESS disc on a plastic swivel disc tray while the PREMIUM BEST disc is attached to the CD case (like normal).

Concerning the bikini pics, I thought I saw a few on 8th style's archives...either that or I was hallucinating, but anyways, that's all Archives is---just a bunch of result screen images.

[DELICIOUS HOT COCK]

if you were hallucinating bikini pics then i want some of whatever you were on
