Killer Instinct

Wow. I've never been good at fighting games and this is no different. I'm terrible! Winning 4 ranked matches in a row is not going to happen for me. Looks like I'll be paying for the first pin. Anyone else out there suck as bad as I do at this game?

Just out of interest, how many of you guys have purchased this?

I'm still waiting for mine and wished I asked one of you guys to ship it for me instead of going via eBay.

you basically just get a coupon code for 100% off the price of the pin, so I would suspect that you can have them sent wherever you like.

It was a real challenge for me. I love fighting game, it's one of my favorite genres and while I'm better than my friends I always get destroyed online. I did finally earn that challenge after a few nights of trying... not easy. Two nights I managed to get 3 in a row and then get my ass handed to me in the 4th game. eventually I just got lucky to get matched up against people who were actually at my skill... my 4th sequential win was down to the wire, 3rd round with just a silver of health left but I got it... finally.

If there wasn't a pin on the line I probably would have given up much sooner

the challenge is over now, did you ever manage to earn it?

[toxicatom5]

Nope. Not even close haha. Have that announced the next challenge yet?

I got one of these as a Christmas gift, and it arrived all beat up direct from MS. I'M PO'd. They shipped it in a flimsy bubble envelope and it has creases and tears all over.

Sorry to hear that Mortal. I think they shipped them all that way. Makes it luck of the draw pretty much whether it comes with damage or not.

yeah mine was shipped that way too, thankfully it arrived unscathed

although I accidentally threw out the included pins as I didn't realize they were just sitting in the bottom of the bubble mailer... I had to dig the envelope out of the garbage once I realized they weren't inside the folio.

nope not yet... I'll post it up when I hear something.

I haven't even received the confirmation email stating that I completed the first challenge. Supposedly it's supposed to come within a week of the challenge's end.

I got the registration email saying that my gamer tag was setup for the Pin Ultimate Edition so I know I'm properly registered. (though that email didn't arrive until just last week even though I registered on launch week)

I am still waiting for my copy and the eBay seller said it's in great condition and will package it up for me so I'm hoping it stays that way when it gets here.

In a way, I wish I asked the guy to email me the code as I want to play the full version but if someone is to open my boxsets it'll have to be me! lol

I have already done the challenge but haven't registered yet, can I still claim the free pin?

You'll probably have to do the challenge over once you get the game and register your edition...
Well from reading here, it looks that way...
