    It would be very amusing if you bought the wrong game, cos this one is 60.

    £40 sterling (my location is a clue) plus 25% off = £30

    Rumour is, this thursday is when the NDA for reviews is up


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Preordered today :)


    I no longer have the right to complain about the game on launch if it's buggy as hell, completely unoptimised, sieges break the game, it wont run, AI turns take ten minutes, or any other damn thing the Rome II had wrong with it :D


    But idc, it's pretty much the only other AAA game this year i'm interested in.

    PRepare people labelling you the reason gaming is going downhill : /

    Theres always a chance :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    They seem to be making an effort this time not to repeat past mistakes. They've released copies for early reviews, delayed the game for a month for polishing and just seem to be a lot more open with the development this time around.

    Of course I could just be kidding myself here.

    Review embargo appears to have ended at 2pm.

    GameSpot: 9/10 - 'It's a triumph of real-time strategy design, and the best the Total War series has ever been.'
    IGN: 86/100
    PCGamer: 86/100
    Destructoid: 80/100

    According to GameSpot: 'Massive AI improvements'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 937 ✭✭✭Dair76


    Yeah, some of the TW YouTube community are giving their opinions now. Positive for the most part it seems.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,769 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    hmm, IGN scored it lower than they initially scored Rome II

    the eurogamer review is pretty good

    Oh, and it's unlocking on steam at 8am on tuesday


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 81,211 Mod ✭✭✭✭Sephiroth_dude

    The RPS review is interesting. They reckon that the campaign side is shallower, more limited, and that the battles are much better. That's maybe to fit in with the Warhammer lore, but not sure I like the sound of it personally. I'll wait for you guys to give feedback. :D
