XBA hits retail shleves! Well kinda!

[CrazyCougar]

Hey folks, I just wanted you all to check out something really cool. The folks over at Greenwave and Liquid Dragon studios have shown XBA some love in a major way. On the back cover of Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm you will find a quote from our preview of the game as few weeks back. We're flattered and excited as well! Thanks to those guys for the love! This is a first for us at XBA and we thank everyone for their continued support of the site!!

Here's a picture that has been provided by a person that picked up the game today:

Sweet. That's cool as hell, that should definitely get some more hits here. :In Borat voice: Very nice!
Oh yeah, I can't find ir anywhere yet, I thought it shipped out the other day?

[Kamshaft]

It's a first for us! Good job Cougar!

[Enamelized420]

Congrats and definitely cool as hell... Way to go XBA!!!

[CrazyCougar]

The game shipped out Thursday and Friday. Some stores have begun to see it today across the US, most will see it on Monday and Tuesday.

[Reclaimer]

Whoa.. the Coast Guard is in this game.
Sweet.

[ChessPieceFace]

Nice should see traffic increase

[SpaceGhost2K]

Awesome. Cougar, I'm working on a faceplate but I don't know if I can get it to you before Thursday. I'll keep in touch.

[Slowride]

That's F'n Awesome!!!!!

btw, what did they decide on the live communications? Did they keep it the same?

[Nato King]

Wow very nice.

We have come a long way so fast.

[Ninja Scroll]

Never heard of this game, but great to see XboxAddict.com get some love on an Xbox product. Who was the previewer that wrote that quote?
Do these companies not let the websites know they will use there names on the games back cover? Any compensation?

[mattgame]

They should have had Mattgame on the back! Great work Cougar!!

[laughs]

Haha YEAH! I'm actually proud.

[BROOKLYNSBATMAN]

Its nice to see some recognition towards this website cause its the best website to be apart of, i advertise xbox addict on my profile, on XBL all the time..

infact my first live name was xbabatman46st

[SamSmith]

Well done cougar

[WillyV2]

Very nice, indeed. Congratulations to XBA! Let's see this again in the future sometime!

[mattgame]

We should push for our name on the Gears Of War 2 package.

[CrazyCougar]

Thing is, there was no pushing or suggesting done on the part of XBA. This gesture by Greenwave was completely unknown to us, and we only found out about it on Saturday when the game hit retail shelves.

Hats off and thanks to Greenwave for the support and appreciation.

[Shorezy]

Yeah that's awesome of them to do that. Good eye too. This is a great thing for the site. Well done Cougar.

Major Nelsons last podcast had quite a lengthly interview with the Capn if you are interested, it's a pretty good audio interview.
