If this gets 9s across the board I'll jump on the promo bandwagon and place my order. Gotta feel sorry for the poor fools who preordered AvP, prior to the critical panning.

Suggestion: Companies are allowed to have release day/Pre-Order DLC as long as said pre-order also entitles the customer to kick all publisher staff in the mid-section as well.

Will sort that problem soon enough.

So I guess now the question is: will the DLC cost less than �5? If so, no point buying from Play (�40) as there are plenty of places doing it for a snip under �35...

No need. The game was pretty good according to most buyers myself included. The critics arent always right you know.

I enjoyed it more than the critically acclaimed Bioshock 2.

Saw people playing this at the gadget show live and was pleasantly surprised, looks and moves a lot like burnout paradise so was quite polished.

You havent played PURE then. That this game is going to be great isnt surprising considering how good PURE is.

Indeed, but on that occasion, I wholeheartedly agreed with the critical fraternity, in that it was shit.
