I was just testing the YouTube Upload feature

It looks and sounds stunning!

That first video, is that a race of some sort? Didn't think that would be in a rally game.

One thing I noted on the Gamespot demo was they said to play online with the PS3 you need to redeem a code on the PSN Store. On this basis the store better be up on Tuesday, my copy has shipped so I'll get it early and can do the career but I want the online part asap.

Wow, looks very good Dangerous!

Any chance of "testing" youtube & gymkhana?

Not played any online stuff yet but I should be playing against some of the Codemasters staff tomorrow (wish me luck)

Buy this game! You will NOT regret it! I love it!

Its already pre orderd and dispatched, with any luck (and some bread, of course!) I'll be on it tomorrow, if not, monday!

My favourite review site gametrailers.com have done there video review they seem to like it too

Looks to be superb, Alan from team VVV has been doing great previews on his YouTube channel as well. It's getting lots of good feedback and graphically is top notch.

Mines disptched too so will be curious to see how well they have used the hardware benefits of the T500RS. So far reports on Fanatec wheels via X360 have been good with nice FFB effects.

Someone must have broke the release embargo to for them to be sending out so quickly (or maybe because the warez came out), shame there is no PC version available to actually buy in the shops

Shop to usually ship out on a Tuesday of release week, Dirt 3 is a very early ship out even for them!

I would, I've used them for ages, they are usually well priced, if a LE is available they have it 95% of the time (Only thing I can think of them NOT having is the special LA Noire Episodes) and the slowest delivery from them has been getting a game on release day, and that was down to Rockstar not letting Red Dead ship until the day before!
