If it does release via time zone... I am so rubbing it in =3 I love being a time traveler. I'm a One-Day Doctor.

Yeah, I literally just checked my Skyrim countdown before coming here - it says 14 hours, which puts it at 1AM. Which is when games are usually released on Steam here ( midnight UK time ). I was worried because the other major title recently released that had one release date for both Europe and the US, released it at 8AM here - midnight on the East Coast. Which is total crap, of course. I mean, we usually have to wait a few days before games are released here, and apparently that's okay. But god forbid the game gets released a few hours before the US here! That would be an outrage!

Hey, guess what I just got? Go on, guess? I shall give a hint. It's currently 'decrypting' on Steam.

U jelly? =3

Don't worry, the universe will correct itself and kill power to his entire neighborhood and all will be well again.

If you're pulling the time zone card, I'm pulling the "my computer is way better than yours and the game will look a lot prettier and run a lot smoother"-card.

If it helps, I haven't even bought the game yet (I will probably around Christmas. I suspect that I'll get an Amazon gift card from the parental figures, which is pretty common).

However, I'll be playing it on my brand new (I won a contest!) Core i7 2600k machine with 16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3-1600, two GTX580's in SLi, on a 46-inch LED HDTV.

It really doesn't get much better than that.  O:)

You'll be set for a few years with that sort of hardware.

Unless there's a big graphical breakthrough. That happened to me. It's the factor that pushed me away from PC.

I wish  I could play games on something besides Pc, but my husbands like any game worth getting is for Pc, were not wasting money on a xbox.

My computer that i'm getting is only costing me around 700 bucks.... Built it on Cyberpowerpc.com....  currently i'm playing dungeon defenders on ps3 with my wife... Later this evening though... I will be rocking out on Skyrim.

I suspect so.

I've already overclocked the processor to 4.2GHz (stock is 3.4GHz).

Gawdamn this thing is fast.

I just made myself play through the rest of the MW3 campaign.  If ever there was a game that just wasn't necessary, it's that. It only manages to capture a small bit of the feeling of the past two games, and in many ways feels like a step back. In MW2, they realized that people like technological gadgets and futuristic equipment, of which there is very little in this game. Instead, we get a dull selection of weapons, a story that tries to make you care but doesn't really succeed because aside from Soap and Price it doesn't bother giving anyone any personality ... and the multiplayer is just ... it's MW2, except not as good. And that's not to say that MW2 was great, even that was a step back from the original Modern Warfare. I just don't know why this game exists at all.

Well. That's a lie. It exists because millions of people, myself included, are gullible enough to pay for it.

Now, I'm going to find out if people still play MW1 online, and if it's actually as I remember it as being.

Edit: I've been holding my breath for Saints Row: The Third. I liked Saints Row 2, never played the first one ... but I wanted to wait for the reviews, because I had a gut feeling it could fail. Damn, was I wrong. I mean, I don't trust reviewers, but it has been getting some seriously good reviews.

I'm playing it right now. Good to see Gat is still a force of nature wrapped in beast.

I love Gat.

"Mr. Gat you're charged with 180 counts of murder, how do you plead?"
"I think the statute of limitations has run out on those."
"There is no statue of limitations on murder!"
"Well, why the fuck not?"

If I had the money I'd get the Third, but alas. I'll just have to make due with everyone's favorite face-stabby Italian (no not Mario).
