My ltd edition copy arrived this morning, played the training and the first few sections before reluctantly turning it off and coming to work. Now wondering when I'll next get the opportunity to play!

Seems excellent so far.

OMG!!!
This game rocks
Took the day off for it (yes i know, it's sad to take a day off just for a game), but so glad that i did.
Sitting about 4ft away from the 50"plasma in High Def with full on surround sound. I can see this being number 1 in the chart for a while my neighbours probably arn't too happy with the noise though.

back to the game

hopefully mine is waiting at home for me....



Mate of mine got it a few days ago (don't ask how) and is about 50% through. He said it's good, but not OMFG good - perhaps not the killer title we were hoping for?

We shall see....

...he's seriously not happy. I tried not to laugh.

hardcore levels are a bit too hard, so i'm going back to casual gamer for now. Anyone played this online yet?
Online playing is good though

Hardcore may seem hard-ish, but playing on Casual is a little too easy and you can finish the game in under 5hrs (as I did). I'm playing it through again to unlock Insane. I have 22/30 COG tags so far.

Got it brand new for £34 from HMV. Impressed so far. Wasn't going to get it, but thought what the hell.

34 quid? Blimey, that's a good price.

Playing it on Hardcore, and it's not easy.....
