I called the EB at the Spectrum, but they were sold out because they had tons of preorders. They said that they'll get some more soon. I want to get it at EB because I have one of those Rebate Certificates... It's gonna be a raddical game....
Go Sam Go Sam....

I was going to do another post saying Stooge Where Are You, It's Here!
Anyway, try the EB store at The Block in Orange if that is semi-close.

Well, look at the store locator at their site.
You have to get it, as I said before I failed stealth class, besides you really wanted this game.

But even if I get it I won't be able to play it much because I have too much stuff to do...but I'll find some time.

Sure, let's see, you get a game you have been waiting a long time for, put it somewhere and don't touch until you have done your other stuff.
Wait, I know, you will just install it to see if the install goes okay but you would never start the game, not even look at the intro until you have your other stuff done.

My friends were like, "ude, you've been waiting a helluva long time for that game and you get it an just put it in your drawer? " "Yep, that is exactly what I've done!"

Resistance is not futile, we're gonna win this thing, humankind is too good, we're not a bunch of under-achievers! We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.

No did not play demo. Will start the game tonight.
Gamespot thought Unreall II was average and for me it was outstanding, so I guess everyone can read reviews and ratings and take them into consideration but in thelong run we all have to take the chance that we have bought a game we will have fun with, of course, I will fail stealth for the 100th time.

Status : Online | Okay, just got it installed. Updated the video drivers, had done sound drivers a little while ago. It is going to ask if you want to install DirectX9, of course I said Yes and what happened to 8.3 upward to 9? id I miss something.
The controls are the same as Unreal which is what I learned when first starting this kind of game so am very happy about that.
The intro is great and if you want to blast your neighbors...... and that as far as I have gotten and now have to do some things around here and then will start the training part.
Oh, there is a patch for it and have already installed it so hopefully everything will be okay.
Come on, a little encouragement for me stealthing or I will be stuck in a spot for the next three days.

Status : Online | Hey fadda,
Don't know why you're posting this in here but who cares;
Haegemonia- never played
Noone lives forever 2- played demo but I did not feel the same attraction I did with the first one. I'd give the first one a 93 though)
Unreal 2- I'll give it a 84;
I am really tired from swimming at the gym today but I did go get SC...I think I'm too tired to play it so that I'll watch the Deer Hunter instead (again the enormous willpower). What I do like is that the box is pretty heavy compared to the other games on the shelves (excluding Neverwinter Nights)...

Status : Online | Redgayle and MonkeyB liked it a lot, but I thought Unreal2 was just average. I think the biggest thing that other FPS developers should take away from the game are the physics (ragdoll effect) and the level structure and design and texturing of the last alien levels. You definitely need to play the game so that you can see these awesome pieces of the game...plus the ending was better than most endings....
Okay, I watched the Deer Hunter last night then played SC until 1:45AM...hehe, ooops....It's very fun..But as usual, I am playing on Hard,and the troops can hear you very well so that you really need to calculate everything just like in Hitman 1. Except in Hitman it didn't matter if I killed, but here it does therefore I really need to think..anyway, I'm past the gates near the fountain on the first Mission...
fun fun fun...

I keep getting the mission title poping up while playing, I know what the mission is, it only lasts a second but it is annoying, any way to avoid the pop up?
Thanks

No Fadda, reinstall it you have to at least see the alien levels at the end and screw around with the ragdoll effect by dying at cool places like the top of a ladder...

Help appreciated. Hey, at least I have gotten this far without blasting everyone.
Godfather, have installed Hitman 2 but not sure I will play it tonight. Will let you know if I fair well.
