Anyone was able to get their hands on this? I really want to try it (read buy) but everywhere I go, It's said being BO ... was it on sale for real and everything sold or not even been on sale yet?

Anyone know?

I picked up a copy yesterday. Unfortunately the tutorial is a long (and I mean very long) video which is extremely boring. Everything else works as expect. The only thing I suggest is that if you do get a copy and you can find them you grab a 2nd starter pack set of cards so you can play against your family/friends. Out of the box the game is set up for 1 person, and to be perfectly honest single player is pretty boring. I'm in Australia and as yet I haven't been able to find a 2nd starter pack, or even a booster pack. Based on my experience I have to say I agree 100% with the review on GameSpot. What I'd really like to see would be a way to play single player / online without needing the camera or the mat.

The whole point of this game is to use the camera. If you find another starter pack you must be able to play with a friend without your PS3 right?

You can play without the PS3, but it seems like an unnecessary hassle to me. If I remember correctly the reason it's hard to find is because of a distribution error that saw a limited number going out to stores, I lucked up in having an EB Games, Gamestop, and 2 Funcolands within 5 miles of each other and even then all but 1 was sold out. One of the Funcolands is out of the way and usually gets forgotten, fortunately for me they got 1 copy in and nobody pre-ordered it. No booster packs though, so I'll probably hold off on going online. :)
