Cancel your pre-order if you're interested. Distantmantra mentioned that it's only 40 bucks at Fry's. I'm going to wait for the superior PC version. Better graphics > achievements

Eh, it's a console game. If it has a shady control scheme on the consoles, chances are that it's even worse on the PC.
And it won't be the worst game I've purchased. I did just trade in Lair today, after all.
I'm still on the hook for it from play-asia...although they say they won't have the game 'til Nov. 30, suddenly it has moved up to 'Preparing Order' status and they won't let me cancel it ::)
The biggest problem with it is repetition. But there may be a few hours of fun in there anyway. So I might just scoop off the cream and cherries from the top, as it were, and dump it after it gets dull. Or I might put more pressure on them to cancel it. Decisions, decisions.

How much did they give you for Lair? I can't imagine it'll be more than $10.
I'll be at Fry's on Wednesday or Thursday. $40 isn't a bad price.
To be honest, if I hadn't already put like 40 bucks on it, I would be skipping it. Is anything else out this week?
That shouldn't be hard, I've managed to beat Ratchet and Clank Future and COD4 in the last couple days. Assassin's Creed should be a breeze.
Plus, I like spending money.

Weren't you interested in Uncharted? Switch your preorder to Uncharted and get AC at Fry's. It's kinda dumb to pay $20 extra when you know it's cheaper elsewhere.

I just finished the pirates' ship level, how much further do I have to go?
I don't understand why people still trade in their games for pennies on the dollar, when you could just ebay them and get more return. I sold $120 worth of games last night when I would have gotten about $50 - $60 at most - in trade. Unless they have one of those "get _% more trade-in value when you _" deals, trading is a straight ass-ripping.

Ebay's not that much of a hassle to earn double what you would have gotten in trade. You type in the name of the game, let the pre-filled info do the selling for you, set your shipping price at a reasonable level, drop it in a padded envelope when it sells, and drop it in the mail. That's worth the extra $20 I got for Gears of War.
Heavenly Sword is pretty awesome, tho
I actually enjoyed the demo quite a bit. I'll probably Gamefly it.

Demo? Where? XBL?
Heavenly Sword is "crap". AC > HS in every aspect
and Assassin's Creed isn't Bomba... check out Gamespot review.

GameSpot's reviewer for Fire Emblem docked it points because it didn't use the "Wii's strengths" by not incorporating Mii support
I think its greatest flaw was being boring, unlike GOTY DW: GUNDAM!
It's cooler to play it on the X360:bow :bow :bow

I dunno, a game that has a focus on climbing, yet doesn't have a jump button has me kinda worried, and half the reviews are ejaculative, and the other half are meh.

Not sure. I cancelled my preorder this morning because of the 8.5s.
8.5 sounds good. maybe it's a short/unusual game but impressions have shown that it's basically what I hoped for.
was there any other bomba?

You cancelled because of an 8.5? That's a good score.
* Blacksite Area 51 AKA "Midway am cry"8.5 sounds good. maybe it's a short/unusual game but impressions have shown that it's basically what I hoped for.

kane and lynch?
no I meant any other reason why this was a bomba? ???* Blacksite Area 51 AKA "Midway am cry"8.5 sounds good. maybe it's a short/unusual game but impressions have shown that it's basically what I hoped for.kane and lynch?

welp, p-a shipped my copy before i could cancel so looks like i'm taking one for the team here...i tend to like Ubi stuff (i loved double agent even) so still mildly hopeful.
7.5 Every voice actor is fantastic save one -- the lead actor. The ambient noise could have been a lot stronger.
7.5 Gameplay Go anywhere and kill anyone. These are Creed's strong points. The game gets bogged down in repetitive tasks too often.
7.0 Lasting Appeal
It could take anywhere from 10-15 hours to complete depending on how thoroughly you explore the world. There's no reason to come back for seconds.
