So whose getting this next week ? :-) I'll be getting it and from what I've seen it looks good so far. The E3 DVD shows some nice footage of it and whats in the game. That swarm bore weapon looks pretty tasty - having played the other games I have fond memories who I killed with the old version of that weapon. ;-)

Thing is, I keep thinking how good it would have been if a little extra was included in the game. What I would have loved to have seen is a dinosaur hunting mode - no cyborgs or evil bad guys, just a mode where you can sit back, hunt and even take trophies (skulls or claws maybe ?)
The idea of the bushes and stuff moving and making noise is great, so a hunting mode could be excellent. :-)

I know you can go around killing normal dinosaurs in Evolution, but this would be even better as far as the hunting goes. Maybe even a Co-Op mode where 2 players can have a screen each or something and just roam around trying to kill a bigger T-Rex than they've bagged before.
Thats where the trophies could come in - you could display your biggest kills of each breed just like you get records in fishing games and stuff.

I think it'd add some longevity - especially when things can turn around and your soon having to leg it from a pack of raptors. ;-)

Hmmm...

Americans get it tomorrow.
God knows when we do.

From what I've heard, although some places say 6th, others say 27th.
Still, it'll be worth the wait.

By the way, I know you're all talking about the Xbox version, but seeing as Gamecube owners don't already have the likes of Halo in the FPS department, I think we'll appreciate it more! :-P

As far as I know its due out on the 6th of Septemer mate. ;-)
As for appreciating it more - I guess Ninties will cause they have had the license for longer. ;-) Plus its probably the biggest FPS the GC will have until Metroid Prime. I know you're getting Timesplitters 2 as well but that seems to be the Marmite of games - you either love it or hate it. ;-)

Hmm I'll have to pick up that DVD next time i'm in GAME, which will probably be next week when I go down to pick up the new OXM.

Too many games, too little money.
