Hitman Absolution Pre-Order.

[TheVoice]

Polygon's review is up:

8.5/10

Lots of mixed scores here, very interesting.

Incidentally, I love this Polygon site. It and The Verge are two of my favourite 'new' websites at the moment, the design and thought that goes into their content is superb.

Ahhhh where's mine?! I emailed them earlier asking about a potential refund of the difference between the value of my pre-order and their 'new' price with their discount code, hopefully that hasn't slowed it down.

My steam has started downloading again. It finished yesterday and I looked at it now and it's back on 85% Either there's more to preload or something went wrong with mine.

I emailed them the same thing but i just got my code. I dont want to activate as i want to hear back from them first about the refund.

Just received a Steam key update from Greenman Gaming, activated ok on Steam and now pre-loading, download size is just under 12GB.

Preloaded. Is this accessible now through a VPN?

I was gonna ask this as well, but I guess if it was then there would be a lot more discussion about it....wouldn't mind giving it a go tonight, as I am working nights for the rest of the week

Its released in AUS so a VPN will work

This should allay any fears that the PC version is inferior to the console one:

Need a VPN server and it's impossible finding one!

 

[platypus]

I'm going to do what I should have done a while ago, and ignore any review and just play it. I'm hoping that this will be everything I'm hoping it will be, and everything I'm expecting from IO.

The russian version is out in 20 minutes to apparently

You can get a trial for an Australian VPN service for $2. I'm working all week after today so it's rather tempting.

 

[caz32]

Its out in russia now aswell

As mentioned on the previous page steam does not seem to recognise my american VPN anymore and just directs me to the UK page still. Dont know if steam's finally found a way around the vpn's or whether its just my vpn buggering up but seems no early unlock for me. VPN still works fine for netflix etc though.
