So anyone who reads gaming blogs by now has probably heard of the great deal of RockBand Special Edition + RB2 for only $79 from MTV. When ordering it says "up to 14 days" to process your order, which is a bitch, but anyone with a bit of patience could wait two weeks for a good deal, right? Well, I asked the sttus of my order and here was the response in an e-mail...

So, knowing that expectations are the mother of all f-ups, and they need 14 days to process a simple order, I doubt on ever seeing my shipment, especially within the next 30 days. Granted it's MTV, a network who has given as much devotion as making children mindless idiots in this decade as they did in the 90's. I just want to be a mindless idiot playing fake instruments made for mindless idiots on my idiot box. What's the hold up? Oh yeah, MTV.
