More importantly I guess, would anyone actually use the Onlive Code if they received it?

This pretty bad on Gamestops' part, can't really bemoan to the Sale Assistants as they're just doing their job, in essence. Peculiar why those codes have to be removed though, haven't Gamestop just started to do PC downloads codes at their stores?

I work for a games retailer, and we have had scenarios in the past where we've HAD to gut new release games for the chart or either as back catalogue, as don't always receive dummy sleeves from publishers.

So that leaves us no alternative but to gut a couple for the shop floor, as not all customers are going to notice it. Even then, we sell those ones, and the ones that have been returned in the appropriate window last.

It's not always our fault, moan at the publishers for leaving us no alternative.

This is one of the reasons to keep the Wii, and Last Story and Pandoras Box. And My GC ver of Skies of Arcadia. Tee hee. Although if the Wii U is gonna have the new Dragon Quest . .

Guess if you think about it, Sony win on this front many times being that their games are all region free without hesitation.

Isn't the Sales of this game being monitored so if it does sell well in PAL territories, it'll be out in the States soon enough?

I've had to import games in the past (from states) cause UK don't always get the best editions or even games in some instances. However, I can see Joystiqs understanding and I bet many have done it by y'know, buying Lego Indi.

Ps: The game is amazing, I'm gonna lay waste into many hours of that game, not as many hours since Oblivion I think.

Just thought, if I got the Epic Edition of GoW3. I would be spending less and getting more content compared to the Skyrim Collectors. Huh.

For £130?

I think not.

Good to know they're taking their time on it, or is it because it's original release date would have been marred by Skyrim?

I am glad it's coming in Q1, my wallet can breathe a bit before then!

Yus, if you are big into Fantasy RPGS and liked Baldur's Gate it's definitely worth a go. Recommend the first over the second, as the first is more RPG/tactical and the second is a lot more combat based. The choices you make in the first seem more influential than the second.

Although started playing the first Witcher the other day, kinda tears Bioware apart when it comes to making in-game choices.

Kinect Games in the UK vary from £35-40 brand new. no Kinect game has a £50 RRP. I think FIFA12 will be the first to have a £55 RRP but that's about it, and that will have Kinect support.

@Schlecht

Considering the Kinect + 250GB Console is £299 in most good retailers in the UK.
Paying an extra £51 for the Game and the exclusive white console-ness + 320GB HD doesn't seem THAT bad in comparison.

Compare it to the GoW3 console, which is £269 and for the additional £80 I'm getting a brand new Kinect which normally retails at £129 new.
