I'm so mad. I work Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I'm going to have so little time to play this game.
Is the world ending on Tuesday?
Muwahaha. I am off Sat / Sun. for the first time in a year WOOOOT. Perfect timing.
My hype level is rebuilding. Early in the week it was just pure horror at the wait, now it is just pure hype rebuilding. Knowing I will get off work tomorrow and be able to experience this game ... OH YEAH

Got my copy earlier. I am loving the flow of the action so much in this game, most of my time is just being spent fighting against the DUP goons. Diving into a vent, attacking from above etc. its all so seamless and it looks so damn nice.
My only complaint is that climbing feels less polished compared to the first two games. You could climb up anything with ease in those games, it takes me a few tries to climb up certain areas in this game which is weird. Not that I really use the climbing all that much anymore to be honest, vent teleportation is the way to go!

Why does he wear the mask!?
Set up a new US PSN account on my PS4 using my company's US address then followed this guide using the gift card method:

Then grabbed the Special Edition from the US PSN store. Worked a treat.Apart from the fact I can't download it yet when I planned to download it overnight and play in the morning
Thanks man

No preload huh?
Man this game is fucking great. Was a bit disjointed with the movement at the start (felt even more sticky than Infamous 1) but got used to it and it's so fun right now.
My biggest (only?) complaints so far is that I feel it's missing some polish in the cutscenes. I also didn't really get into D's VO until later. The last thing that cropped up was the music mixing with VO. It almost always sounds like the VO is talking in a sound mute room with zero atmospheric effect or something. I mean talking on the beach vs talking between buildings it sounds like there is no added echo.
But yeah awesome game so far and the smoke powers has been great fun. Just started with neon and it's a blast aswell!

If you buy day one you will get the limited edition that comes with it... No need to waste the money unless the limited edition is only us

About 20 hours for me till I can pick up the game. I've decided to go with good for my initial play through.
I'm thinking it'll be easier to get the platinum with the evil play through on the higher difficulty.

So I'm watching these Gamersyde videos and it looks like the game is too quiet, just like the first 2 games.
*Sigh*, maybe I should just cancel my preorder
*Sigh*, maybe I should just cancel my preorder
surely you mean 7 hours?
where are you that your GS is doing a midnight launch? anywhere I can see if mine is doing one?
Got the game today.
Looks amazing for an open world game. For any game. You can tell the framerate is a bit spotty, however. Enjoying the story so far too.
With regards to the framerate, it's got that whole unlocked business going on I believe, I remember Infamous 1 or 2 having it. If you look at the sky you can watch the framerate go pretty high, but pan it down and you can see it drop. It's not bad, but I think I'd rather have it a constant 30 with small dips than varying all over.
Don't let that put you off, however, it's still a great game (so far).

If you live in the US, all first print copies come with Cole's Legacy.
Well I did since someone semi-spoiled it
. But it far exceeded my expectations anyway!

Its not quiet at all. Going from Infamous 2 to this in regards to sound is a night and day difference.
Alrighty, cool. I hope it's the same in Canada.
Cover a lot, don't be afraid to reload on smoke often, hide when your screen changes color, do side missions and find blast shards so you can upgrade your powers. Most importantly though, be on the move constantly.
weirdest reason for a peorder cancellation ive ever seen

My first thoughts when I got it were:
A. How is this a superpower?!?!? Sucker Punch are geniuses.
B. This is something we've always wanted in an open world game! Especially Infamous games.
it's the high point of the game and I can't wait to see more reactions to it.
I will say I'm glad I did not have that spoiled for me. My jaw was wide open when I first saw it.
Due to my own hype, I'm slightly disappointed in the review scores, only because I wanted to see the game do really well (like better than the first two well). But then I don't care about reviews, it did still did fine, AND there's always the chance I won't like it (doubtful but who knows).
