After I workout tomorrow and slay some vampires I'm headed to Gamestop. The hype is finally getting to me. I only have eyes for Castlevania.

Well i'm in the mood for this game. Tomorrow morning can't come soon enough. Today I was playing through SOTN, Dracula X, and Dawn of Sorrow in anticipation.

My order with BN.com totaled $41.15 (with standard shipping), still haven't shipped either.

Guys.
WE'RE GETTING A NEW CASTLEVANIA, OMFG O.M.F.G.
I had to pay 29.99 shipping, on top of the 34.99 for the game. 65 bucks is still cheaper than it would have been to buy the game when it comes in Europe more than 3 months from now, and then I probably wouldn't have gotten the bonus either.
Just a fyi for people in here complaining about the extra bucks B&N charged by mistake.

Well, mine shipped finally so I can shut up about it.
They charged early, and there were no emails saying when they were charging or when it or shipped.... is this normal with their website? It just seems rather unprofessional all around considering how big of a retailer they are.
I've ordered from much smaller retailers and had a much more complete end to end experience.
Oh well.... as long as the preorder bonus is intact then I'll be happy. I'll just stick to instore from here on out. I thought ordering online might alleviate some of the problems that have kept me out of their stores.

For anyone who's living outside of US and have ordered the game off EB games or gamestop, how long does it usually take for your order to arrive? The only shipping option I was able to use is international economy(at a not so cheap price of 32USD WTF!), but they mentioned delivery times at 3-5 days. I'm kinda skeptical though, since the shipping method was described as "economy" after all.

Usually with major items they'll charge a few days beforehand (it clearly states this on the website about preorders). This time was really unusual in that they started charging so early (Saturday). Usually I'll see the charge Sunday or Monday for a Tuesday shipping item.

I have two classes, a powerpoint presentation, a lecture, and a geology lab final all in my way before I get Castlevania. Life is trying its damndest but it will not succeed. :lol

I swung by my local EB last night because I caught wind that they had the preorder bonuses in; I brought mine home. It is sexy, let me tell you. 
I'd take pics, but my cell phone camera is garbage... Perhaps when I get home, unless someone else beats me to the punch (if someone hasn't already... haven't looked at earlier pages).

I'm still biting my nails about the bonus stuff, it's totally anyone's guess for me at this point.

Do you know what I love about this game?
Lots and lots of dialogue cutscenes...and twists.
I'm in the Tower Of Death now...I'm scared it'll be over soon...Best Castlevania game since 1997.

Yeah, I had a "your package has shipped" email today, so full scale freak out averted. It should be here Friday, according to my shipping info, which works out well since it's my day off.
