Out now (in the US at least) - as a 'developers cut' version...
You can play as a riot guard, there are new enemies and levels etc.
Obviously the visuals will be even better than Xbox too - and they were pretty damn good already!
Methinks I might grab this.

It's not patch on Half Life 2 (few games will be) but is genrally very good. The right amount of action and stealth, and I loved the interaction with NPC's throughout the prison sections, something I wish there had been more of. Just so long as your not looking for something long term I'd say give it a go.
Worth getting? I may have moolah soon.
That was brief. Got it on Thursday, completed it today, and it's not as if I've been playing it non stop either. Overall though, good game, with a much more interesting story and set of characters than the movie. It's lack of any multiplayer mode or any other features means I'll doubtfully be going back, though I may just play it again for a few minutes to hear this Developers Commentary.
i am just waiting for my copy at the mo :) really looking forward to it. and Battle for middle earth.
Got it yesterday, actually surprised it surpassed my expectations. It's even better than the movie, in fact I'm quite sure that Escape from Butcher Bay would have made a much better film than the fun, but overly silly big budget disaster they released in the summer.
Yeah, going to order the special edition US version, looks even better than the awesome Xbox versions. Definitley one of the finest games I have ever played, a complete gem from start to finish and I think the extra bonus stuff is enough to make me want to go back to it despite finishing it around 7 times now with everything done.
Out today isn't it?
