Been playing a bit today, boy this is a good game. Just completed the Prologue and working through Chapter 1, enjoying it a lot.

My copy arrived as well, see Shopto (or more like, the Royal Mail) delivered 3 days early for a change. Don't have the time to start tonight, shall play as of tomorrow morning.

Shopto/GAME etc are dispatching Saturday morning. On a bank holiday weekend.

As @Hero\-of\-Time mentioned, Shopto were known and built a customer base on cheap prices and delivering items earlier, usually a day or two earlier. However in recent times, prices have risen and delivery is more or less release day. The one thing i do like with them, is that you can order something and it gets delivered in 1 day (as long as stock permits). It doesn't phase me with waiting until release day, i got 1 or two games to finish off this weekend before it arrives Tuesday.

I guessed as much, i do swear Shopto are changing and not for the better. On the plus side, least they didn't cancel orders like GAME have.

I'll be interested in the cup.

2 of my players (Mitch McAteer and Edward Stark) have called time on their careers, so will be investing in replacing Stark, as i've got enough Midfielders to cover, whereas i've only got 3 strikers (soon to be 2)

I'd say so, Twin Snakes was also my first Metal Gear game. However, i have since played MGS 2 and 3 via the HD Collection on the Vita, so i got a bit more of an understanding of the story. But, go with what HoT has said and watch a recap on YouTube or something. That way, you'll have more of an understanding of the story before heading in to play V

Players choice you say, i'm in.

With me, there are two doors in the office. One is the fire door, and no-one comes through that way. Even in social situations, i have to face the door otherwise paranoia sets in.

Shopto are back up and running, and said that none of the orders are affected. Which is a relief to hear.

Everytime i move desks, i argue that i have to sit facing the door as i can't sit back to it. It sets off my anxiety, and i get paranoid that someone is peering over my shoulder and that it would affect my performance and stats.

I've yet to get a platinum, however when the final chapter in the Game of Thrones series comes out then i'll have my first. Only got 6 trophies to get.

IGN were streaming this last night, looks interesting.

Yeah, "dispatched" (aka it's ready to go, just sitting in the mailbag). If Konami get their way, which they could, then this is what probably will happen.

Shopto have started to process orders, so who knows. Maybe we'll get it early, maybe not.

I do go to the cinema on my own 1/2 the time, and i have been to a restaurant on my own. Out of both, the restaurant was more awkward going alone. Places like that i believe should be a social place, cinema not so much.

Apart from the tracks (Canada, Scotland etc) and the extra cars, all other features are there. You won't get all the tours either, just the ones based in India.

All games not played, i'll give them a go.

I tried booking the day off on Tuesday, but alas as it's right after the bank holiday it's near-impossible to get that week off, let alone a day in that week. On a plus side, it's my late on Wednesday so i get a few extra hours in the evening.

NXT, as a product (which Triple H runs) is still a heck of a lot better than what McMahon offers with their main shows RAW and Smackdown. All i can say is, if this is what Trips can do on a small scale, what can he do when given the main shows. Havn't seen the NXT Takeover yet, same as i have not yet seen Summerslam (i know 2 results, thanks to a mate whom texted me at 4am)

@Cube, i didn't see a storm on that image. Just that there was a storm in the South, and it was heading north. Nice pictures btw.

Glad you are enjoying the game @Ronnie. Even though The Order is short and doesn't have much replayability, it's a great story-driven game which looks and sounds excellent.

Adding flOw to the list of games done. I enjoyed it, probably more than Flower. Again, it's a simple game (if you can call it a game that is)

@Daft, i'm up for some Crota. Can do it either tonight or Sunday if that's cool. And as for Skolas, still need to do that myself.
