The only thing i love about the AC 120 is the sound the missiles make. So good.

@QualityJeverage: I think its the weapons that are off.

@Matt Edwards: Not as immoral as them buying out all their competion a decade ago. Some people seem to forget that.

@MrSnuffles: Yup, confuses me to no end.

@enjoybobudo: Its possible, or slightly higher quality audio. I don't personally think an extra 1gb will matter much but i'm sure "every little bit counts" for developers.

@fearing: Game length is largely dictated by development costs and dev cycles (time they actually get to develop a game before deadline).

@PATRICK SWAYZE 2.0: No. The reason FPS's in general are getting smaller in length is because development costs have sky rocketed this generation.

@puffa469: Multi disc games no. FFXIII and Lost Odyssey are good examples of this, because it'll still ask you to swap discs. Thats because they still want you to confirm you actually own the disc and aren't just borrowing it and installing.

You know, videos like this i just have to click on to see what happens. Its like the videos of "Will it blend?" ...

Depends on how good the game is, doesn't it?

The shotgun looks about right, honestly if it didn't kill with 1 shot, they wouldn't stand much chance against smg and ar users. Yeah some of the kills are from long range, but the vast majority are close range, so it doesn't seem like a major problem.

Mega64, funny as always. I suspect some developers do wish they could do something different. I mean, it really can't be fun working on the same franchise over and over, even if they are good at it. But at the end of the day, its a paying job and that matters more than. =)

@FabAndroid: As i've posted myself, i've had exactly the same issue when i preordered Halo 3. I had it preordered for a year and Amazon didn't even bother dispatching it. Of course, i was just one of the unlucky ones, many others didn't have an issue.

@ValeriaHeart: Well just think yourself lucky then. Its like having stuff lost by Royal Mail. Its never happened to me personally but it has to people i know. Just because you've had a flawless time, doesn't mean everyone does, contrary to what others have said in these replies.

@Sunwind: Its a damn lottory. Ask me before Halo 3's release if i thought Amazon.co.uk had a good track record on making release date and i would have said yes, they do.

@FabAndroid: Some people don't really understand how the postal system works, or even special premium couriers. There is always a cut off point of time where it won't make it for that day and if it isn't already dispatched, chances are good you won't get it that day. Its as simple as that.

@MrGOH: It does, but somewhere along the line you completely missed the point. They paid extra for a service they did not get. It doesn't matter if they get a refund, it doesn't turn back the clock does it?

I love Amazon but i learned the hard way with Halo 3 never to trust them on release day. I had the game preordered for over a year and when it came to release? They hadn't even dispatched the damn game in time for release, let alone on the day it was already out. Needless to say, i swiftly cancelled and walked into a…

@Guitarzan2k5: I dunno, you covered all bases still :P

@Kanji08: But Sprinkles is his tournament alias ;).
