Great game, great fun but the online system is so scruffy and PC-like in the face of CoD4 and Halo 3. I bought the download when it came out and I got bored fairly quickly. I doubt I'll ever touch it again due to depth and community offered by Halo3 (and CoD4 in november)

Christ... you have them too? Some in my dept at work goes on an on about it. I managed to get a copy of the metal tin version for free (long story) and I've been taking pleasure in annoying him by still having it sealed.

Don't Fear the Reaper? Please please use the sensor in the mic for MORE COWBELL!

Some NIN action makes this a more certain purchase than it already was.

Forthcoming issue of Edge? Err it's already out, read this days ago..

It's happening less and less in the UK these days. Distributors ship special display boxes to stores so they may be put on the shelves and there isn't the need to 'gut' the proper product. Take the display box to the counter and they give you the sealed goodness of new from behind the counter... Or it's a lot easier to just go straight to the counter and request the game you want.

I'm a PS3 buyer from the UK and i'm online... (also an insomniac as well)

Ordered online so i'll be waiting for the courier.

Yes i know I'm an idiot for dropping so much cash on it but at the moment I can afford it. I already have a 360 and Wii and i'm sure the 360 will continue to take most of my gaming time. Foolish as it may sound, I'm rubbish with buying consoles, if i don't get them on launch when they are new and shiny then i rarely can be bothered at all.

I think they're working on the concept that no one is interested in PSPs on their own so if they put them near the interesting Link display people might actually buy some..... good luck
