From the pre-order page apparently they'll send an email when the game is ready for download.

The various video modes sound amazing. I hope the Speccy version has colour clash.
So something like 18:00 GMT ?

why should we wait for this ?

I may be wrong, but I'm not sure he even sent codes out until yesterday. Not sure why this is a constant issue with devs releasing on PSN (saw the same thing happen with Dyad and Closure).
We have to wait because SCEE is incompetent. I mean isn't CS:GO still not out here? Glad I got that for the PC.

I can't wait to try this out on my Vita later tonight (after XCOM, of course!).
Today is a great day to be a gamer.

Wow, what a nightmare for someone trying to get codes to editors.
You could always illegally download a copy and buy it later on a different platform.
Apparently, there is a moral grey area when it comes to such things, even though the developer spent both time and money creating both versions of the game.
what? Its not out tomorrow?
So according to their Twitter account they still have no idea when they will be releasing the PC version other than "early morning PST".... wut? I wanna play!

Now I feel bad about being impatient about the PC release today.
I am currently debating getting the PC version. If it runs in Linux with Wine I think it should also work fine under OSX.

Why don't you guys push Sony regarding this topic?
It seems like Sony wants to use PSN as their backbone for their online infrastructure but there are so many things wrong with it that it's becoming more of a detriment for them instead of a an advantage.

Do you have a crappy PC, PS3, or Vita? No reason not to have at least the PC
I got a cruddy laptop, doubt it will run it.
Sure there is: you're a Mac user. Then it all comes down to Wine.Do you have a crappy PC, PS3, or Vita? No reason not to have at least the PC
However, mentioning 3DS makes owning a Wii seem plausible. If you have that then maybe it'll come to that in Europe?
We're talking about a game deliberately styled after NES games. Obviously you'd need way more than an NES or even a 486 to run it, but I doubt it'll be a big problem. Check the system requirements.
He'll probably have better odds of it being released on XBLA before WiiWare in Europe. Lol.
I didn't know what the situation was there, but I was kinda fearing that. I thought La-Mualana came out there though, but maybe that was just a stroke of luck.He'll probably have better odds of it being released on XBLA before WiiWare in Europe. Lol.

When do reviews go up? If this was on XBLA there'd be 28 reviews by now.
Check his twitter: RetroCR. He said something about the MacOS pendant of Wine. So it probably will work ;-)
Edit: http://bit.ly/UDgXjL
Parallels creates virtual machines. The commercial version of Wine on OSX is Crossover, but there is also still the open source thing you can get.
This is listed on GOG currently but doesn't mention it being a pre-order or anything, I assume that it's not available as I haven't seen it mentioned on here, but I can't go through the site here to see what it says if you try to buy it. Am I right in thinking that it's not actually available for download yet?

I think this game is pretty much perfect/made for handhelds. I'm very happy with the cross buy thing on PS3/PSV but I'm going to be playing it exclusively on Vita. Can't wait to see those rendering options in their glorious retro style on my Vita

So whats the hold up on the PC keys? Is Grace Chen distributing those as well?

maybe they are waiting for steam to have the game before the keys go out
That would be my guess too, but GOG seems to already have the game up, so people who bought directly from the developer are now being delayed for no reason?!

I wonder if anyone is going to bother with getting a review out on time for this game? I'm buying it regardless but I'd like to read some opinions before the game comes out.
Comically, here's a glowing review of RCR from 2010!
Gamefan Mag: 9.5
It sounds like all of the structure of what's in the game now, was there back then, there's just a lot more added since then. So if you like what you hear described there, you should be extra-happy with all the extra vehicles, story missions, weapons, and challenge games that the game offers now!
There's also a few people in this thread who seem to have had hands on time with the game, so perhaps they can shed some additional light upon things.

This is a little bit of a joke... Thing that's annoying about situations like this is when there's no information given whatsoever - none of us even know why we've had to wait all day. Give it 45 mins and the game will probably show up on Steam yet we might not even have our key yet.
