thats what I was referring to. Either its in the package or its on the case. Most likely the former since thats whats stated on the GS website

I'll let you know next week.

Wow, this looks awesome. Nice to see the Prince back to his old self, even better. I'll be picking it up for the wii.

Its not going to the Wii. Its a PS3/360/PC title only

 

[Spidey-Bat]

There will probably be a spin-off for the Wii.

I just ordered it from Ebgames.com. I was planning on waiting to get it, but since I could get this free upgrade to the limited edition, I thought why not. t: I'm going to play as Altair though, I loved Assassin's Creed.

This game looks really fun. Fable 2, Banjo Kazooie, Prince of Persia, I am all about the fun more colorful games this year. I'll get Gears eventually.

I beleive tomorrow is just the ship date with 12/3 being the actual release date. Many places, Im even hearing 12/4. I hope GS at least has it early as I preordered with them

Ah, I had Game Crazy tell me theyd have it tomorrow, but yea who knows.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

My mom called GameStop and they said they'll have it tomorrow. She's going to go the first day so she gets the promotional codes. I don't want another Nuts & Bolts episode.

I'm new to PC gaming, but I loved the hell out of Sands of Time and Two Thrones, so I'm looking forward to this.
What do you guys think, is it a ***** to control POP games with a keyboard and mouse? (I don't want to buy a controller right now.)

do yourself a favor and get a 360 controller.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

What he said. The 360 controller is great for the PC. I use one with my emulators and it works perfectly. Even with NES and SNES games where I could use the keyboard, it makes it so much more enjoyable. And if you do get one, don't get the one that says "for PC" b/c it's $5 more and just comes with a CD with drivers. Just get the regular wired one ($30 on Amazon). You can download the drivers off of Microsoft's site for free.

 

[GyLocke]

Okay, thanks.

 

[Havok83]

Just went to 2 Gamestops. First one said its out the 3rd and the second said the 4th. Both stores were recieving alot of boxes so I bet the game was in one of them. I think I might try the store I preordered at later bc if they recieved the shipments today, hopefully they will sell it

Just read that [blackout]Jade from Beyond Good and Evil[/blackout] is an unlockable skin upon beating the game

Spoiler
