Get your 50p and 10p in the post then! Although I would prefer if you kept it in $ for when the exchange rate is better.

Thanks mate. I was tempted today, but thought I would check the forum first and shoot to Asda later if it got a good review. A close shave.

Glad I left it to wait for reviews, sounds typical for the recent gaming market though tbh

Stopped buying pre releases a long while back because of this type of behaviour from developers, rarely buy a game until a couple of months after release, gives it a chance to be reviewed and patched.

Actually i did make the mistake of trying a pre order again a few weeks ago and bought IL2, made me realise why I'd stopped doing it!

Yep, pretty much only reason to buy it would be if you had a massive nostalgia fit, even then i hear it doesnt even live up to duke 3d standards.... Makes you wonder why they didnt just can it.

Even with it being from an era gone by it still falls short of those past standards.

Have also pre-ordered DS3, but not sure about playing the demo......quite happy to wait for the full release, so I don't spoil anything!

Those comments after the article were hilarious. I learnt a lot of new bad words and that surprised me immensely as I thought I knew 'em all already.

Most people commented to say the article's author - Tom Law - was up himself and pointed out he had based his judgements not on playing the game itself but on watching game trailers. Law's beef wasn't with how the game played - as it appears he never even played it - but with the game's deliberate puerility, a viewpoint which he was almost unanimously criticised for. It seems he substitutes political correctness for good gaming analysis and thereby completely misses the point of not only DNF but writing a good review that isn't just clever sentences strung together. DNF clearly wasn't going to be anything other than vulgar. Was there really any need to lament that fact?

Still, that's not to say the game itself had any redeeming features so far as to say it was meant to be fun and worthwhile to play, as a user named bigbaldjon commented "this game is absolutele [sic] dog [censored]." It was very entertaining reading the comments as it often is and the article itself was written very well indeed though the guy's points were totally out of synch with his audience.

When it comes to games reviews who do we turn to? Why, time2die of course! Want the definitive word on how a game plays and if it's worth buying? Then wait till T2D gets it and if he's still talking about how good it is after a few days then chances are it's worth getting!

Someone who buys that many games ought to know a thing or two about them. Just not sure if he is avid, or simply masochistic!

With the subtle allegiances to developers/franchises that show within the review industry, it's nice to get a regular unbiased opinion on so many games.

I don't like coming on here and hating games but some such as Puke Nekem Forever need trouncing that's for sure.

I understand that the DN games as suppose to be funny but they could have given it a Graphical update after so many years,the only people who think its funny are the devlopers and the publisher who have delivered a very poor product.

Most games in this day and age should look like the generation they are made for and not retro consoles of the past..

Example.

When playing games like Battlefields and MW we are gripped with the intensity of the game play and the amazing set pieces and realism involved,we like to feel that whatever gun we have in our hands at the time looks and feels very like a real gun with a amazing sounds and great animation when reloading.

When we fire of a clip or lob a grenade we want it to sound like proper gunfire and explosion.....[unlike the one in Black ops],muzzle flash,damage, bullet penetration all help to make a game a unique real experience.

When i look at Battlefields 3 it looks so real and even though i have not experienced
playing the game by the way it looks makes the majority of us feel the way we do about these great games on the horizon.

Imagine if the game looked dated and was like something from 5 years ago,would we be raving on about it then............I think not ?

More than likely the later matey

Think times are going to change and the addiction to but anything FPS has to stop unless i get good reviews coming in and i go with my initial thoughts.

If i had done that then DNF would never have seen the light of day in my house.

Hey! If it ain't broke don't try to fix it (as long as you can afford it that is).

It's very much appreciated from over here anyway.
