Like everything else it gets released onto the internet.
Ahh so what i should have said was...
'So warez did you get your copy from then?' ;-)
Sorry mate, but i have just forward your IP to my mate at ubisoft, as i am sure he'll be interested to know his latest 'blockbuster' has been D/L'ed like 5 days before it goes retail.
> So where you get your copy from then?
Like everything else it gets released onto the internet. UT2004 is on pre-order with a company that plays :D So as its not dispatched I wont have it till after the weekend, but got enough Uni work to do and will probably have a look at what Far Cry is like later on.

Yeah I see it isnt. Oh well I have it anyway :D same with BFV which I have had since Sunday.
The US copy you have is on 5 cds or 1 DVD? If its a DVD then its the UK version as the US version is 5 cds.

Nah Far Cry is not out in the old US of A until the 23rd of March mate.

If the other two guys had got their butt into gear i would have have the other two (UT 2004 and BF:V) at the end of last week, but sadly publishers PR people are just lazy buggers :-D

Play UT2004 first. BFV is not too bad, but the helicopters are a pain to fly. The bots do nothing so its no fun on single player.
My hasnt been dispatched either cookie, I think we both ordered so we could Play it :D
Doesnt matter too much as I will probably play some BFV and Far Cry and got two 2000 words essays to do through the weekend and early next week.
