You don't understand Japanese right? So at least it might be worth it for the story stuff?

I'm a Prime member and I got release-date delivery for free. I think there's a cutoff date for getting RDD for free.

Question. I pre-ordered this game from Newegg when it was on sale for $29.99. Do games from Newegg have release-day shipping? If not, it will be disappointing. :(
You won't get it on release day unless you're lucky because I've never received anything on release day. But you should have it the next day, they ship via UPS.

I see. That's news to me. Must be a pretty early cutoff date since I didn't get free RDD on Lollipop Chainsaw either, which I ordered on Sunday.

That's the question, isn't it? One's past experience with the genre may factor into what they think of this as it did me.

I want to say though that if anyone here is expecting a fleshed out open world no different than what the rest of the genre churns out, you're setting yourself up for dissapointment.

Great job, Takao.

So is it confirmed the free pre-order dlc for those who buy on PSN USA? I can only see the news related to PSN EU.

Now I should buy a Vita and play this game, hope to read some good reviews from you all. :)
Congratulation, awesome work on the art. : )

I've seen it at Walmart two weeks ago and just yesterday at my local EBGames. I'm in Canada (Quebec) btw. I checked the back of the box and it was the US version and everything. Weird.

If you were to buy it at Wal-Mart you'd get a "Do not sell until June 12th" at the register.

If you try to sell a game that hasn't been released yet at Walmart, the register blocks you from doing so. And they follow their release dates to the letter. Maybe I should go and buy a copy for kicks.

Same thing with target. I remember I found MGS Peacewalker for the PSP like a week or two early at a Target by me and got really excited. The register wouldn't allow it to go through even though the older woman was really trying to get it to work.

You can return it to them as long as you don't open the shrink wrap. I believe they give the code out at time of pickup on the receipt. I doubt they will care if you return it without the code.

Oh wow is it widespread like this today? :( I remember back when Pokemon Stadium 2 came out I saw it running on a store TV two weeks before the release and I simply asked a store guy if it can buy it already. He said "Yeah why not." took a copy out of a locker and sold it to me. Though I'm in the EU so things might be different here.

Also now that I saw the demo on the EU store, I assume it's the same that was on the HK store long ago?

I am slightly let down by the sub-resolution of this game (just because the art style would complement a better resolution. I quite understand why it isn't native res), but I still cannot wait.

I hope my Amazon order ships today. I have MGS HD, Mortal Kombat Vita, and this coming. It's gonna be a good week for my Vita.

Precisly.. i for example love infamous and Gta 4 but dislike just cause or sain row

And yes given the gravity elements , i expect GR to be very different

Infamous is perfect comparison in that that game gave you a sandbox to play in to mess with your powers. A game like gtaiv on, the other hand, has it to immerse you in a livin breathing world.

GR's open world intent most definitely falls in line with what Cole's world did. Whether that works for the player or not is, of course, entirely subjective.

Looking forward to exploring the world in this game. I hear that it's somewhat empty of a map, but it's a great playground to fly around in since the world is built up and down all around on different levels. Not just a flat city environment.

I've got mine preordered and have been pretty hyped, tomorrow needs to get here.

I recommend that you max out your stats before attempting the gold trophy for the missions, it makes it much tolerable.

I wish they added a retry option though. :/
