   A buddy of mine, who has a 360, wanted the game so I told him that I'd   
   pay the $5 reservation fee(so I could get the soundtrack that only comes   
   with the pre-order). When we reserved it(10-24-06) they said that all   
   versions will arrive tomorrow(10-25). Lord only knows if this will be   
   true, but we'll see. If the Xbox 360 version shows up before the PS2 and   
   PC versions, then I say fuck'em, that's what the PS2 owners get for   
   Midway fucking Xbox owners out of the Premium version of MK:A...and as   
   for the PC version...who cares? ;)
