I really cant decide whether to go an get it at midnight.

If i do the temptation will be to go home and play it, but I've got work tomorrow (although its an easy day)
 
Why on earth would they do that? :confused:

The woman in the game shop said they do it all the time.

She also said she's had really angry people in there, who have waited for there pre-order that hasnt turned up on time, then had an email saying it had been cancelled 3 days after release date.

I have a copy reserved instore now though.

That's reallllly bad :/

yeah... two copies bob..... :facepalm:
 
Was playing this on the pc online last night (my mates copy from Amazon arrived yesterday afternoon!), fuck me is it beautiful, sometimes I find myself just enjoying the view, watching dog fights zip overhead in the beautiful low sun, not to mention grand bazaar with it's incredible looking wind and rain effects.

It plays awesome too, it's the leap in tech and immersion that PC gamers have been crying out for.

The multiplayer throws up moments that COD can't even manage with set pieces. I mean the first thing my mate saw in loading it up and coming out of the graphics options was a MIG crash into the crest of a hill wiping out his team mate and the fuselage bouncing on another 400 metres over his head on fire. Later I was playing the Paris map and me and a few others were having a back and forth close quarters battle around a corner with assualt rifles, shotguns and grenades, I took two guys out with a nade ran and was just to assault around the corner when an enemy apc came tearing round, all I could do was laugh as I turned and ran in a futile attempt to save myself, my housemate laughing like a maniac in the background.

As for people marking it down in it's SP campaign, well I agree it isn't great, it's essentially Call of Duty but on a far more impressive engine albeit lacking some of the polish. However to mark it lower than Call of Duty's is baffling, afterall it is pretty much the same thing but with an gfx engine that is faptastic.

Can't wait to get back on tonight, and when me and my mates get ourselves squaded up over the weekend, well fuck yeah.

Also ordering a 6870 tonight, though I have to say I don't actually really need it as my 5770 does 1080 on high settings without dropping below 30fps in the campaign and I could turn down to medium for the multiplayer and it would still look awesome.

I did however get to play it on a i5 sandybridge, 6970 and 16gb of ram (housemate spunked 800 building a new pc for Battlefield 3).
 
also gears of war 3 is utter pish, housemate got it on launch day, played it for like two and a half hours and hasn't touched it since and we both enjoyed the first two games.
 
Massive muscle-bound monosyllabic soldiers with huge guns fighting intergalactic species have feelings too you know :mad:
 
If I buy this thing retail, do I still have to deal with this fucking Origin piece of shit?

Unfortunately I'm finding it hard to justify buying it with the amount of uni assignments I have to do :(

Apparently you can't play till midnight. :( Not impressed. You have to load an update, install the textures, input your online code, then sign up at battlelog and then make sure you have an EA Online account... and I still have to wait till tomorrow. It was easier passing my driving test.

I'm going to play Dark Souls!

Why would you do that? I've preordered, but if it doesn't come for a week I'm not that fussed.
