    Next time make it multi platform. It would make decent sells.

    Going a little OT here but is it just me or does anyone else think the advertisements for the game were really poor? The TV commercials were nowhere as engaging or descriptive as the trailers they previously released. I remember the TVC that aired in Japan just showed a big blob hovering above a Japanese building complex...! Playstation ads have always been a bit weird, but I think it would be much more effective if they just showed the amazingly fun and original game that they got here!

    There were TV adverts?

    The only advert I can remember for a PS3 game is for one of the Resistance games. Nintendo seem to have a Wii advert on every hour at least.

    To be honest I've noticed a hell of a lot more adverts for games in the Cinema these days. If you go to a Vue cinema expect to go through about 5 games adverts before the trailers start.

    Makes me laugh that on Steam GTA4 is $10 cheaper than L4D. Not that I have monies for either

    I just feel really bad for getting it for x360.. I haven't had time to play it much, so I'm not even past the first island yet, and now it's out for PC.. Now I can't justify paying the extra $20 for the console version anymore :/

    Bought L4D and just picked up Fallout 3 for £14.99 from Gamestation (they're doing some great deals this week with fallout and some selected [new] games, too!)

    Last week I pre-ordered and then cancelled GTA IV after I discovered it uses securom, and now I've just realised that Fallout 3 probably has it, too (not installed it yet). Grrr. Had no end of problems with GRID and securom so I'll not be best pleased if history repeats itself. Fuck DRM and fuck securom.

    Also bought a nice combined metronome & tuner for my guitar and also picked up some clothes for the Christmas party because I had nothing to wear. Should be a hoot.

    Is it a Boss TU-80? It's pretty much the best of it's kind, and I've had endless satisfaction from mine.

    They usually have some nice deals. I especially love their "Bog Off!" and "Buy 4 games for £10" second hand deals as well.

    Just purchased Earth 2160 off Steam. It's quite the lovely game, but I didn't get to give it the time it deserves earlier. And now it's on for $4.99 on Steam, so I just couldn't resist it.
