I'm not sure if I want to watch them or not, I have already ordered the game so a bad review will not change anything but I have to know.

I've been spending the morning shifting everything I absolutely don't need to make space for this on my SSD. Can't wait and like a kid at Xmas.

From where can we look for the reviews from?

Yeah, it won't change my mind on the game.

Amazon shows dispatched, and should have arrived Saturday but didn't - which is no problem.

Hoping it's waiting at home for me tonight!

"It's Total War done a bit bigger, a bit better and a bit different. Its borders hold firm."

yet 7/10?

:confused:

If it is Total War done a bit bigger and a bit better than count me in!

I really couldn't care what review sites are writing, I do enjoy looking at the screenshots though, I just feel that many "critics" are useless these days and the only real measure of a game is metacritic player scores..

Me neither I got this game solely because I thought it would be beneficial to aid my lads learning of the Roman Empire! Or at least that's what I told the wife.

Oh come on that's unfair you just know this is really a middling 7/10 and Mass Effect 3 was a classic 10/10.

Maybe they did a Darkfall and didn't even bother playing it!
