Whats the 1st thing you will do when u receive your DVD package?

Well i preordered a few days ago the DVD version so im kinda excited about it. Can't wait to receive it and restart playing it ALL OVER AGAIN. Because for me it's never enough the 1st time to play it. I like to go all over the story and see how predestined and how well was planned the plots from TOMI in other games and clues.

Anyway it may sound weird but the first thing i will do when i receive the DVD is to smell it. I know it sounds weird, but its the smell of having TOMI finally and believing its finally in my hands that gets me so excited. Then ill open carefully the box so it doesnt damage and see whats in there!

What will you do When you receive the package on your home?

    [sarcasm]I'm gonna sit down and write a long angry letter to Telltale about how dissapointed I was about the long time it took to ship. Then I'll probably start up the forum and write a long angry post about how long it took to ship. Then I'll wait until some people react angrily at me, so I can post about how Telltale doesn't respect it's fans and how their shipping sucks.
    Oh, I might even open the package too.[/sarcasm];)

    Laugh. Laugh hysterically. Look at my family's confused stares. Then laugh some more.

    I'll start by checking out the bonus stuff. I think I'll wait replaying Tales until I have Revenge's special edition too, so I can play them all in the proper order, but perhaps I'll play it immediatly anyway.

    Probably won't play it, I'll look at all the bonus and then try to find a place for the buttons and coins and maps and cetera.

    I'm playing through Curse slowly at the moment. Then I'll play Escape when the DVD begins shipping, then play through the Tales season when it arrives, then play SMI:SE, all in time for LeChuck's Revenge: Special Edition. :)

    I will flip the piratey piece of eight that comes with the deluxe version.

    I'll examine the bonus stuff carefully. Probably won't play the game again until July when I've got some weeks off from work.

    Cut-scene commentaries. :)

    I'll stare at it with a big grin on my face for about three days straight.
  • edited May 2010
    I'll be happy to know that soon I'll be able to talk about Tales with my husband instead of constantly catching myself so I don't spoil anything.

    I'll lick it all!!!

    I'm a smeller too.
    Especially with books.. Yessss.

    When I'm trying a drink I've never tried before, I smell it first. Any kind of drink. A lot of people laugh at me or think it's weird. :)


    Also I know lots of people like the new CD/DVD smell, never really got into that though...

    I think books smell good too.
  • edited May 2010
    I don't smell things, but I will hug them sometimes, if it's something I'm extremely excited to get. Think panel 3 in this comic but replace the Xbox with a Wii and that's me on launch day.

    I hugged a book once. :eek:



    On the subject of smells: my favorite smell in THE ENTIRE WORLD: the smell inside the Pirates of the Carribean ride at Disneyland... Awesome. :)

    I'll let the dog take a sniff at it to make sure it ain't a bomb.
    ...
    ...
    Wait, I don't have a dog.
    ...
    ...
    I'll let the cat take a sniff at it to make sure it ain't a bomb.

    Then I open it and watch the bonus material ;).

    I wouldnt hug the package because i would be afraid to bend the box. I want to conserve it as much as possible. Also the smell is only to Cherish the moment and excitement of the arrival!

    When that UPS truck or US postal service ring my bell i will be happy to receive the dude and sign my package!

    @Hassat Hunter i though u had Hassats as pets and not cats! Weird if you ask me.
  • edited May 2010
    Just caress it. So softly.. carefully..
    *ahem*
    Yes.
    Best smell thing I've discovered is new post-its.
  • edited May 2010
    I smell too (The DVDs I mean)
  • edited May 2010
    Drink something on the drinking vessel
  • edited May 2010
    Take out the cloth map (best bonus item ever!) and spread it out on the table and run my finger along it and point to the different islands and indulge in how piratey I feel.

    The bibliophile in me is crying in shame as I think back, but...
    When I was a kid, I didn't only love smelling old books. I loved eating them.
    I'd finish reading a page, then tear it off and eat it while I kept reading on.

    Poor old books. Cruelly torn apart and eaten up after years and decades of loyal service. But you tasted good.
    I still eat paper on occasion, but not books. New books taste disgusting anyways.

    (My brothers were so pissed when it was a book they hadn't read yet! They ended up having to start partway because the beginning had been eaten up).

    You ate entire books?! This is the most brilliant thing I've heard ever.
    It's like trying to keep the knowledge any way you can. :D

    Rarely the whole book in one go, since I could read the pages faster than I could eat them.

    I'm not sure if in English you have the expression that someone devours books, meaning they read a lot? Well, I was literally devouring books.
  • edited May 2010
    we do indeed use that expression...but you have taken it waaaayyy out of context

    I think I will make it my number one friend spot on myspace...
  • edited May 2010
    I will stop visiting this forum looking for updates on when the DVD ships.

    BTW some of you people are really weird.

    OMG!!! I imagine you mom ill be in my room reading a book, with a glass of milk. And then you would put a napkin on your neck and begin reading. This makes for a nice SNL skit!
  • edited May 2010
    Haha no, I didn't wear a napkin :p I'd usually be sitting on the floor by the bookshelf.
    When I got a bit older I started eating the margins only. I'd only tear the margins, making sure the real contents on the books weren't damages, so it stayed readable.
    Still, it looked like we had mice or something.

    And when I was a teenager, I had a guinea pig who ate the corner of my books, to my horror. Karma!

    What a cruel twist of fate.... I think my father would have murdered me if I ever ate one of his prized books. I can definitely see the allure of eating the pages though. I used to eat everything when I was a kid.

    I'm gonna put it on a shelf, give an agreeable nod and then let it gather dust. Then, several months later, I'll decide to rearrange things and come across it once again. Genuinely surprised by it's appearance, I'll open it up, check out the bonus stuff then place it on the shelf to gather dust once more while brushing my hands together saying "I should've looked at that months ago".
