Not long until the October 24th release. I for one cant wait for this.
I really hope it delivers as the hype machine is in full effect.

Best way to find out more is to checkout the Dev Diaries

I really enjoyed them. This time it seems Lionhead will deliver on Mr M's promises

Same here, although the online co op is deffo something me and a mate were looking forward to trying out
Regardless of this, it's still a day 1 purchase for me

Hopefully we will see a review soon!

not long now! US release on Tuesday followed by the UK on Friday.

Still no sign of a review from any of the big sites though?? Strange as dead space has the same release date and was reviewed last week! bah

Great news! I always find edge magazine give quite honest and accurate reviews (in my opinion anyway)

Never knew about the embargo on websites, thanks for the heads up!

Anyone think it's worth me pre ordering and hoping for a Thursday delivery? Not sure which sites are the best at getting pre orders out early

xander_uk2 · 20 Oct 2008 at 11:33

Look forward to it

xander_uk2 · 21 Oct 2008 at 11:36

Dammit...I have a collectors edition and a regular edition sitting on my desk at home.
Looks like one order site failed to cancel my pre order for the standard edition :mad:

Sadly the Elite is the same hardware as the Arcade and Pro versions (bar colour and accessories). You may get a quieter one, but paying more for an elite is not the way to get one. Pot Luck is the normal method. You know the machine will be quieter with the NXE that lets you copy games to HDD and only uses disc in the drive to validate ownership? Even then the Dashboard fans are still louder than any PS3 I have heard, but the main noise, disc drive, will be minimised.

I own a Falcon Elite and can confirm that I will be installing Fable 2 to the hard drive ASAP.......roll on Dash board update
Crazy read write speeds going on....a bit of a distraction to be honest

Best one yet:

"Kiss my stoney a**e!"

Brilliant!

The designers must have had a field day making this game!

Got 30 gargoyles so far - and have not really explored most of the ares for them yet. I reckon I will get 40 easily - it will be the last 10 that will be elusive. I will be amazed if I get them all.

I havent spotted one yet.....dammit

I did exactly the same thing

Property is where the cash is.

Takes a bit of time to get a good selection but the cash rolls in, trust me
