Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

I wouldnt get to excited, they do once in a while turn up on a saturday if its from "the island" where I've pre-ordered mine from.

Nah its a place that I've used for the last 5 years and in that time I've always got my games at least 1 day early. Always a first time though :( working thursday anyway so it doesnt make too much difference. :)

Meanboy. I ordered from somewhere that is now £39.99 but when I ordered back in february (lol) it was only £29.99

8.5 is more like the scores I wanted to see, no 9's yet though..

It seems like everything I've ever wanted in an FPS shooter is being provided here, sandbox environment, visuals, decent AI, multiplayer potential - the scores so far seem very ..meh considering what is on offer. Whats missing to earn it that elusive 9 ?

There's been quite a few 9's a couple of swedish mags gave it a 9 and pc zone gave it a 9. A lot of people arent into hard mil/sims. I expected quit a few low score TBH but they've all been a lot higher then I expected.
 
Very tempted to buy this but i need to wait and trade games in.

It is a tempting price but once i found who it was with i still don't trust storing my car details with them.
 
the place i've ordered my 360 version has shipped too - woo. However the PC game price of £17.99 (Which is what i pre-ordered at) has now jumped to £29.95 on the main site :( Will be canceling if they try to charge me that for the PC version!
 
should have googled first, found my own answer and if what they say is true about the place selling for £28.99 then i wouldn't buy a paper clip from them...

From what I have gathered from the internet is that the owner is a bit dodgy but the site itself is fine.

I have no problems with them and they're now my retailer of choice. Customer service was great when I had a problem, rang up and got put through to someone right away (even after 1800) who sorted my problem then and there and emailed me to follow up that I was happy with what they had done.

They have cheap prices, they ship early and with free recorded and their site is nice to use.

The only issue is that the owner isn't allowed to trade I believe due to other things but that hasn't effected my experience of using them and I will continue to do so!
 
woo just checked my order from the £28.99 place and its been dispatched! Hopefully that's a Thursday delivery latest!
