Has anyone gotten the gamestop version with the exclusive Naked City case? If so, does the code for the case just come on a piece of paper inside the box? How do they verify that you haven't claimed the code if you go to return the game? Couldn't you claim the code then return the game with the paper still in the box, but now invalid, and continue to play the game with a different version of the game that you purchased?

Well, I thought Gamestop had a no returns policy for new games.

It does come on a paper in the box.

For those that got delayed by Amazon, contact customer service about it and they should give you $5-$10 back as an apology. I got $10 this morning, so that makes it a total of $25 when factoring in the $15 pre-order bonus. For that, I can wait a couple of days.

Thanks, just did this. I'm pretty freaking pissed, 2 guys in my office just got their copy today and we all had it shipped to the same physical address (our office). What's worse, they placed their orders after I did.

So I got my 360 copy but I wont be able to play until tonight.

In order to get the installation benefits for the entire game do I have to first install all 3 discs one by one ? Then proceed to play the game (and swap discs when prompted)?

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

I'm still in media blackout for this game... seen 0 gameplay and probably 30 seconds of cutscenes. Does this game use the Euphoria engine?

Yeah, there's a slip of paper in the case with the download code, and an envelope filled with black and white film negatives, which I'm guessing point to badge locations?

Of course, I can't download it yet, thanks Sony.

No worries - PSN just came back up a couple of days ago. No definitive word on when the Store will be up yet though.

From my experience, don't even bother hitting the button to connect to the PSN Store because it froze my game up.

Looks that way, yeah. Trying to redeem codes leads to the infamous "This service is currently undergoing maintenance" message.

I don't really see the issue in that, though I'll admit I'm probably in the minority. I can't remember the last time I revisited a game. Just isn't my thing.

i very rarely do that myself, i would have like to with this one, the atmosphere is topnotch!

I haven't gotten a delay e-mail from Amazon, but when I check the status of the tracking # it says this:

A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated.
​

Anyone seen this? I'm guessing this is not a good sign for delivery today. :(

It's been a long time, been a long time, been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.
Played for 3 hours & it has already exceeded my expectations. The tutorial cases were very tame, but the few traffic cases I've done have been incredible. Searching for clues and getting the right responses out of suspects is very satisfying. Even the smallest of characters feel well defined & believable - the performances are great.

My only complaints are small - I personally dislike the arcade-style driving, & in the last case I did a cutscene seemed out of place based on what I had found previously.

Overall, this game is awesome!

So, I just accidentally read that; I'm guessing it's no biggie in terms of spoilerage?
