    Out of curiosity does anyone know if Smyths in Limerick are doing a midnight launch? Can't get anyone on the phones.

    they're probably not open till 12 noon today with the bank holiday?

    I downloaded on Friday night before I went to bed. It was fully downloaded Saturday morning but only fully installed at 9 on Saturday night.

    I only really decided early this morning to pick it up. I can be playing through Halo 4 while I wait.... for days.

    I thought you were in the big schmoke? Laughing at our rural broadband speeds?
    I won't be able to play till after nine tomorrow night, have to collect it after work and then the inevitable install / patch will have to be done too.
    4 is pretty short anyway, if you're determined you'll probably get through it in a day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,476 ✭✭✭ibFoxer


    Well, FAILSAFE 00 & emmetkennedy, cheers ;) one Halo 5 installing as we speak.

    From past experience I have found that the benefitted party may find that all previously accrued goodwill is viewed as earned and spent, regardless of the activity said goodwill has been spent on. He may also find himself in a much weaker bargaining position and may even find himself resorting to a double shift of performing parental responsibilities whilst spewing foul utterances under his breath.

    that' basically it :(

    Playing Halo 4 while Halo 5 is downloading.

    Can't help noticing the chief's helmet visor looks like he's drowning in fanta orange.

    I only played the first two levels but I did enjoy it. Its been so long since I played a Halo game I took a while to get used to it again.

    I love the music in Halo games. It adds so much to them.
