I pre-ordered "The Thing" from EBGames.com and FedEx just delivered it. I got the DVD promo they were running which included the Xbox game, the collector's edition movie DVD and a McFarlene figure. They must have upgraded my shipping to overnight, because the game shipped yesterday.

One strange thing I noticed: the movie DVD came in a clear plastic CDROM case. It was not the boxed version like you would get if bought it in a store.

I guess you get what you pay for. I let you know how the game is as soon as I get a chance to play it.

BTW, anyone know where I can DL a scan of The Thing (movie) DVD insert?
