WOOT! got the last xbox 360 copy from the DT HMV

Want to go home now. badly. feel like a kid who borrows a videogame at lunch and can't wait for home time.

I still got one left for PS3 - $42 firm.

Try to call different London Drugs around the city. Not many people go there to purchase games, and they will price match other stores too.

How much did it cost you at HMV? Do they price match with walmart?

Just played for like 3 hrs. Game is alot of fun. I am pleasantly surprised as I was not sure what to expect. Awesome co-op game of looting madness. haha.

[almerick]

ARGH sold out everywhere

[JohnnyBlaze]

Have you tried lesser known places? Rogers Video, Blockbuster, Zellers, Superstore?

[sk8r3124]

The Wal-Mart in South Pointe got more copies in so I went to pick it up.

Im thinking if a Wal-Mart has it and you pick it up before work hours are over you're golden, but after 5pm they'll probably be gone.

There was about 5 left after I Bought mine. The lady said they had over a dozen this morning

Played for a few hours last night. Pretty fun game. I guess the guns are kind of dynamically created, so there is actually like 16 million different "gun possiblities" in the game which is pretty cool.

I'm hopeing as the fanbase grows the public knowledge will grow. Unlike most games that have "weapons manufacturers" it will actually make a difference who made your gun.

It seems that some manufactuers favour different traits and qualities over others and things like that.

Pretty sweet so far - but this game, so far, doesn't have the same "world appeal" as fallout did. World feels small, and the annoying habit of constantly respawning baddies is stupid. Although it helps when you're grinding, it's irritating when moving about and the same 4 beasts always come after you or the same guys always jump over the walls.

Damn.. Played for about an hour only and was kinda bored, so I went to do a deathmatch online and WTF, theres only co-op! haha.. i must have read a review terribly wrong. I just assumed when they said Multiplayer is awesome that there was something more than playing the dry story mode, which is a pretty boring story...

I'm going to give it a chance though. Play for a couple more hours. It looks like it could be fun with a buddy co op (not split screen) so if anyone wants to play LMK

edit

just played for a couple of hours, and its really starting to grow on me. Some of the missions are tough! Its fun trying to juggle which weapons to keep and which to drop, or hold on to to sell. I'm level 13 now. I was near the end of a mission and ended up with pretty much no ammo left lol, that was fun.

The only thing i don't like about the game is that there isn't really any structure. Like i do a fuckload of missions and i don't know why, I just do them to do them, it doesn't even feel like there is any progression in the story based on me completing different tasks. I really like leveling up and finding new weapons though.

Finally caught a walmart with this in stock.
Had no problem buying 3 copies.
Played for 4 hours last night. Well worth the $40 pricetag

Where did you end up buying it? I've got a friend looking for a copy now.

[sk8r3124]

walmart on Macleod.
I think after I picked up mine, there were like 3 left.
Not to sure if they are still $40. The flyer ended yesterday.
If that is the case, just pick it up anywhere else at regular price

[Khyron]

Steam pre-release price is 45$ us so about 50 cdn. Pre-loading now but won't be avail till monday (pc release time)

[teknical]

I work at BB deerfoot meadows we only got 20 copies and we had to price match walmart they were sold out in about an hour of opening. There is a huge shortage of XBOX360 copies, there are tons of ps3 copies in stores tho.

What level are you guys?

I'm a Level 19 Soldier

I ended up renting this on Ps3, it's pretty good. I'm glad I didn't buy it though, it's just a temporary filler until the rest of the games get released in the next little while (MW2, Assassins Creed 2, Left4Dead 2, Forza Motorsport 3)
