I ordered mine on tues (express delivery) and it has just arrived.
Lovely Art Book with it which contains a Soundtrack CD and a Behind the Scenes DVD.
"Prepare to die", indeed.

Probably Monday. It's normally 48 hours for standard post if my experiences with Adverts are anything to go by.

Decent classes breakdown http://darksoulswiki.wikispaces.com/Classes

the bandit is interesting me.

not trying to be racist or anything, but wouldn't a pyromancer and sorcerer be essentially the same thing.

Reported for racial profiling :pac:

Leaning towards the Pyromancer myself.

Also tempted to tank it with the Knight, and if it were any other game I probably would, but the need to be agile in Demons Souls was paramount.

Ordered mine yesterday at 2pm. Normal post has been and I don't know if express post is a seperate delivery. In any case, I doubt I'll get it today.

Express post is a courier. They can call at any time of the day.

So every copy is the Special Edition then? Got a text from GAME yesterday to say my copy is in but I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get it.

What was their preorder price? Never bothered getting it online.

If it is the same price in Gamestop as it is online then I will be getting it there.

PS: Rarely buy games in bricks and mortars these days but wheres a good place to go to make sure you get a sealed copy rather than the box from the shop floor?

Kiith · 06-10-2011 12:46PM

It arrived, i'm playing it

noodler · 06-10-2011 12:48PM

Well I have work training tonight after work and the Irish games ar eon Fri/Sat so I wouldn't get tp play it much anyway.

Only thinking of getting it tomorrow for the extra crap before the vanilla version replaces it.

Kiith · 06-10-2011 02:16PM

My mental state so far.

Recieved the game -

Creating my character -

Start of the first level -

Killing boss - :cool:
Falling off ledge after boss - :mad:

So yeah, it's as awsome as expected.

Died twice to the first skeleton with a shield.

This is gonna be tough.

Razleavy · 06-10-2011 03:02PM

Just got an e-mail from Gamestop saying that it had been shipped. Picked standard An Post. Looks like it might arrive for tomorrow

So if the release date for this is tomorrow, then how are some of you playing it now? I preordered it from Gamestop.

Spunge · 06-10-2011 03:15PM

penev10 · 06-10-2011 03:25PM

06-10-2011 03:34PM

Liamario · 06-10-2011 03:43PM

Was checking the e-mail while waiting for uncharted 3 mutliplayer to get going.
E-mail stated that the item was shipped with a pdf invoice dated today. Just as I pick up the controller again, the door bell rings.
You guessed it, it's the delivery man!!!
Unfortunately, it wasn't a package for me :-(

ONLY KIDDING!!! HE HAD DARK SOULS

Liamario · 06-10-2011 03:53PM

Signage was a requirement.

I'm sorry I didn't pre-order online now.

Same here, went in there today to inquire about the hardback guide, they were going to have them in stock but there was a delay, just typical. Game are selling it for €25, robbing bas%ards.

I'm gonna be at work tomorrow but I'm wondering if it's standard mail will the package fit through a standard mail box? It looks in pics to be a bit bigger than the normal? I know yours was courier but still.
