Well, the giantbomb video did it for me and I preordered today. This is the first game I've preordered since San Anreas, and the first shooter I've bought since I don't know when. But dammit this looks great.
I'd like an invite to the 360 group, if you would, my tag is Burro Oul. Thanks.
No preorder. I'm going to risk the early morning Wal-Mart rush tuesday - whatever you might think about Wal-Mart, paying $39 instead of $69 can't be passed up.
My contract at work ends tomorrow (something I've known about for a while), so an awesome game coming out on tuesday is the perfect thing to get me through 2-4 weeks of unemployment.
So I'm not ashamed to say I'm getting this on the 360. My desktop, well my desktop sucks. AMD Athlon XP 3000+, 768MB of RAM, 7600 GT AGP. Crap-tacular. One of my laptops will probably run it, but I learned my lesson last time I played games hardcore on a laptop. It pretty much died after a year and a half (well, it worked, but only in an extremely cold equipment room, otherwise it would overheat and die). I keep saying I'm going to buy another desktop, but I never do.
Of course, getting it while stationed in Japan is going to be a little tricky. Military exchanges might get them within the first week. The one that will most definately have it is 25 miles away, which given traffic, is upwards of a two-hour drive each way. And the mail is just as crappy, as it could take anywhere from a week to a month to get here. Sucks when you are really excited about a game like this.
You know I like that they already plan extra content, even if its pay content.
You know, I've seen a couple other games do this, announce DLC before or right after the game releases. But then that's the only thing (or one of the few things) they ever do release. It always seems like the DLC is something that would have been in on release, but they just ran out of time for putting it in, so they just release it as DLC.
I'm really resisting the urge to start calling people pussies...but I'll refrain :P
Pussies!
I will take this opportunity to point out what a clusterfuck TF2 turned into with all this stuff you're meant to trade.......and still no trading system.
I don't see why we need a trade system. Drop the item and have the second player pick it up. It's not like we will be playing with people we don't trust. I don't plan on joining any random games either, I'm sure someone will come up with a way to dupe items. If you play with pubbies you won't know which items are legit.
I don't know about trading, but I wouldn't be worried about trading. With friends, you can smack them around if they steal. With pubbies, well, couldn't they just use a trainer to get what they want, if they would otherwise be willing to steal? I mean, the characters aren't saved on gearbox's servers, right? That wouldn't make sense.
It pretty much died after a year and a half (well, it worked, but only in an extremely cold equipment room, otherwise it would overheat and die).
open that baby up and clean out the dust clogging the heatsink. if necessary, reapply TIM to the main processor. enjoy laptop that runs quite cool.
I would, but because of the heat, the video card (maybe motherboard) crapped out and I got artifacts for crap. Dashed lines all over the screen. Couldn't even play flash games on it. Right now, the motherboard is sitting on someone's wall due to the fact I used it as part of a plaque for a going away gift.

Any idiot can steal something and run off, using a trainer to import hacked items requires... well some level above "blithering idiot". And there are an awful lot of blithering idiots out there.
I think I'm going to pick this up for 360. Live name is forum name if anyone wants to co-op. I need something to hold be over until Modern Warfare 2 comes out and I found out about this just a few days ago.

So you're willing to play with said blithering idiots, if only they can't steal the weapons you have to voluntarily throw on the ground.
I realize what you're saying, but it just seems silly to me. This game really seems like something you play with your friends, not JddUB1994, IKILL4FUNN, and James the cat.
exactly...I plan to play with WWB members and RL friends pretty much exclusively. I have no interest in playing with random people even if there's a trade system implemented at some point.
I have exactly zero interest in playing this with people that I don't at least know from these forums.
Yeah thats my problemo. I'm not feeling too bad about owning it on both systems, increased player base and depending on the bullshit with gamespy might be coming out ahead.
Preacher on
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
The soonest I'd be able to get this is probably the 26th or 27th. I kind of hate myself for choosing the cheapest shipping option but dammit I wanted to save money!

15 bucks for overnight yes, which I took thus wiping out the price advantage. DOH!

When I eventually break down and buy the console version, it will be the exact opposite of an impulse purchase.

True, well I'll play co-op with you if you can fit into a pst time sched on the box.

Sadly I have to wait a little after release for Amazon to get it to my door.
Excellent.
Hey, apparently they've announced DLC already, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, coming later this year?

Not bad. Shipping is only $3. I got mine back when it was $40 on Amazon.
They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.

Gonna assume no, since everyone's said GameSpy a hojillion times.
Well played sir.....well played.
Oh it's such a nice day, I think I'll go out the window! Whoa!
So once this DLC comes out, we'll have zombies, coop, lasers, explosives, guns, explosive guns that shoot exploding laser zombie explosions, etc.
...I just made this a looooong 10 days for me.
