I just re-bought it for £7. You should all do the exact same, unless you were clever enough not to sell it in the first place:

"Some tasks are pure genius: a harvesting wave attacks an elementary school in America 1966. Your goal is to lead the children to the nearby church, but they're not getting on the school bus you hop into. Hop into an ice cream truck named Mr. Lolly, and watch the children follow. Mr. Lolly's "weapon" is a hilarious ice cream jingle. Imagine slowly driving an ice cream truck down the street, jingling a happy tune, aliens are beaming down and attacking all around you, and you have about 20 children following after you that you need to lead to the church. It's moments like this that make you realize the brilliance of Body Harvest's gameplay."

Is everyone going to Game Stars?

I was invited to go on Saturday but I can't be bothered.

Hardly. It was most of the way through the game. When looking around I found the usual way to get around it was restart the game, and I could not be asked with that method.

I even checked a couple of FAQs to make sure I hadn't missed something, but this bug was actually listed in some of them.

I'll complete it this time, I promise you.
Even if I have to sacrifice Second Sight, GameStarsLive and school. In that order. Not Madden though, I draw the line at Madden.

That was like the first level wasn't it?

I would've completed it, but I got stuck because of the bug on one of the levels were a shield wall portal wouldn't open.

After that I lost the will to play it.

Actually, I do know someone who completed it. Maybe if we get stuck I can ask him for help. I envisage us all getting stuck as soon as we get the game, to be honest.

Turok was originally £70. Madness!

All I remember was driving a Howitzer facing two mass armies of bugs, then having to abandon the vehicle and face them on foot, blasting my weedy gun while they sapped my health.

Very fun game though.
