It will be interesting to see what I am actually playing mid-March. After buying Street Fighter 4, KZ2, Mega Drive Collection, and maybe Fear 2, I wonder what will end up occupying me the longest. (Can't put RE5 on this list after playing the god-awful demo)
 
Just got back from uni and a fucking multiple choice test in politics. Now I am ready to kill some fools. Damn waiting....
 
E3 2006, took me 3 hours to download a 100 MB Halo 3 announcement trailer. I really hope Sony understands what it is in for today.

They need to put up the US version at the same time, especially since a 1.5 GB MLB the Show demo is also out today.

My girl is coming over soon. I have her and some Mahvel to hold me over until the demo. Oh, there are rumors that Best Buy might have the FightPads in stores. Also, GameStop/EB will start shipping them on the 10th.

Oh yeah. All you European dudes: We 'bout to slow yo shit the fuck down. :lol
 
I'm assuming that the 1.1 million is worldwide and not just for Europe. Why would they talk about worldwide console sales figures and then announce a regional pre-order count for Killzone 2? :lol
 
Not meaning to bring everyone down, but just realize you've got at least 90 minutes until it's loaded on the PSN store, then if you can get on the store you've probably got a couple hour download at least with how many people will be doing so as well.

Oh well, I've got about 7 hours until I'm home from work and can download the GS demo from the US store.

Well, Europe is part of the world. Seems relevant to me.

It's just for Europe.

Dam the npds are gonna be interesting.
 
The 1.1 mil is EU only according to EU-gamer

Anyhoo, I'm about to futz around with Burnout Paradise for the next eighty-seven minutes then log in with my UK PSN and download the greatness...

Does anyone know the size of it!

Oh god, I can't wait!

CVG clarified with Sony that the number is just for Europe.

I'm guessing he hopped from WW figures to regional preorder count, just because they were the figures available to him. He'd know WW figures on PS2/PSP/PS3 overall sales, and their respective drops/increases, because they've been well publicised from Sony's Q3 report. But he wouldn't necessarily have the latest on preorders for individual titles in the US or elsewhere..but he would know for his own territories.

edit - Moreover, that wasn't a direct quote from Reeves, the bit that mixes PS2/PSP WW figures with the KZ2 preorder number. The Guardian was saying that.

I think it's just for Europe, since both Amazon (US) and Gamestop have both confirmed they've had over 1 million pre-orders for the game each. Which means the game could be sitting on at least 3.1 million pre-orders worldwide, and that's before the advertising has even kicked in. It's certainly looking very promising for the game indeed.

If beta size is to be believed (and GG's awesome coders) It'll be as small as it can be.
Click to expand...

What was the beta size? I wouldn't be surprised at a 1.5 gig demo, but then again, these guys are crazy at coding so under a gig wouldn't surprise me either.
 
Well I'm off now and won't be back till two hours after the demo's been released. You guys better have stopped crashing the internets by then. :P

i think numbers would not be so high if GG had not released the beta. There was a good vibe and positive word of mouth that at least the multiplayer is really really solid. The reviews gave the rest.

How big's the file going to be?

nice question, hopefully a short promo video is enough after the inevitable "coming soon" screen when beating the demo... I'm guessing 700-800 megabits ?

Makes sense. Day one figures should be interesting then.
 
Im going to my home at lunch time to download the demo; this is the first time I'm doing this... and its just a fucking demo.
 
How many did MGS4 sell worldwide at launch? Gears/Halo? Not trying to start anything, just curious how it compares to something like Halo 3.

I still have trouble getting remote START to work, remote play works fine if I leave the PS3 on remote play before I leave. I've opened all the ports, done all the steps, remote start rarely works ....

Dont worry bro, same problem here. If I am at my house, I can connect straight to my PS3 if it is already in Remote PLay standby with no problems. I can power it on and off if I connect directly to my PS3.


Once I start trying to power it on and off outside of my home, then It just doesn't work. I have to leave my PS3 on Remote PLay mode to connect to it from outside of my network via WIFI, and it is a laggy mess for me.

Holy crap.. GG are geniuses.

I'm still of the opinion we're getting multiplayer in this, for the reason that they've been fairly cryptic in their responses on if it's SP only. We shall see. I think that's the ultimate way to get more pre-orders is to get people hooked on multiplayer.

Aw, come on. I just want to know what at least 3.1 million this early really means. I know it's not groundbreaking or anything, but I have no way to judge it! Never been a sales person.

If it's already at 3 million pre-orders it's beaten both Halo 2 and Gears of War.
