omg I will be playing this today. Who else will be?
|
Doesn't come out till the 21st yeah? Either way i'll be abusing this when it arrives for me. Though I bet my sister will commendear most of the special edition pieces.
|
I am doing some dodginess to allow me to play the states version (I am paying money btw)
|
Got home last night, checked steam - 3 hours to unlock
Got up this morning - 3 days to unlock gg mofos, im off to piratebay to find a crack or at very least a us vpn |
Unless you are planning to VPN Steam so it thinks you are in the States (it unlocks there later today) to allow you to unlock the PC version you wont be playing till 10am Friday.
Honestly Steam has had the release date of the 19th for a long time and the timer counted down to 4am this morning and once again just before it got to zero it reset and 3 days so many hours were added. It's release date in stores here is the 21st but unless you are planning to buy the console version you wont be able to play the PC version till Friday the 22nd as it uses Steamworks. last edited by tHeBoRg at 09:45:40 19/Oct/10 |
I will be using a VPN connection to unlock mine. First time testing it though so I hope it works :)
|
doesnt unlock in the US for another six hours
|
That's OK, I'm at work for another 8 :)
|
I am off to some launch party for this tomorrow night at Home Night club Sydney
7pm till 10pm, free booze and loads of give aways, should be decent. |
I pre ordered the GF a copy for her B-day so I will be in 2 days. Or I'll be watching her play, either way I'll get to play it at some point.
The Australia Post tracking feature says it currently at Underwood Business Centre. That being said, their tracking feature is a little vague. |
Think I'll wait for a couple of reviews before grabbing this, I'm still not too sure about Obsidian's handling of it.
|
DLC has just been announced and apparently it will be "exclusive" to Xbox 360...no other details so far except expect it this holiday season.
If the game is on 3 platforms they should all get the DLC's FFS. |
heardy, is that an open or private event? free booze and gaming stuffs? awesome
|
im still too busy playing mafia II (AWESSOME SAUCE) to be playing this
|
im still too busy playing mafia II (AWESSOME SAUCE) to be playing this i stopped this game after losing my s*** for the second time. |
yer, i think theres 1 dlc episode out, soon as i finish the main game, ill go grab it and see how she rolls
|
I'm still not too sure about Obsidian's handling of it. Aren't a lot of people on the New Vegas team original fallout/2 DEVs? IMO this indicates a potentially better game than Bethesdas take on the fallout universe. |
heardy, is that an open or private event? free booze and gaming stuffs? awesome Pretty sure it's private, I had to enter a 'comp' to win tickets and the comp has since closed. |
I have this on pre-order. Hope to get it soon.
|
And I'm going as HeardY's date. He'll be getting sexy time for sure!
|
What's the bet that at midnight the review gets delayed another 3 days?
|
I don't think this can be a bad game. It'll either be excellent or just more fo3, which would be fine really. but let's hope it breaks into 'excellent' territory :)
|
Why can't the review be posted now...why after 1am?
Official reviews are poping up all over the place... http://forums.bethsoft.com/index.php?/topic/1122138-fallout-new-vegas-reviews-thread/ |
Hopefully because they are trying to play the game as much as possible (for a change :P)
|
Based on the reviews it sounds like it'll be a good game...especially after a patch or two.
|
a game should be good on release not after a few patches.
|
Why can't the review be posted now...why after 1am? Local (Australian) publisher embargo probably. |
If anyone is desperate to go to the special release event that HeardY mentioned above, ive got a spare ticket for you and a friend to go tomorrow. its in sydney and you both must be over 18. message me if you want it :)
I also heard that new vegas is gonna be great!, i cant wait to try out those new weapons and do the quests. Im very picky at doing everything and everything in a game, especially one as big and open like new vegas. |
a game should be good on release not after a few patches. hah, gave up on that pipedream long ago! |
I gave it up around the time.... SIN came out.
|
Steam price raping = no interest from me.
|
I gave it up around the time.... SIN came out.Heh, I remember that. 20MB patch just to get the game to stop crashing, that took a while on dial-up. |
Almost as long as it took for the game to load.
|
Our review for this goes live at 1am tonight :) It's 10mins late.... 11mins. |
Steam price raping = no interest from me.So easy to get around. |
Unfortunatley I can't get out of the house today. I'm stuck here! This is THE game I was looking forwards to this year...
|
up now, pretty peeved about the local embargo date - I thought it was actually a worldwide embargo date/time Its like everything. Australia gets it late. Just because its Australia. Even I know that and I'm a Kiwi. |
That actually s**** me. Are Australian fans less deserving then those of other countries? I've never been able to get my head around it.
Make a world wide release date or gtfo |
