Oh and I'm not bailing ;)

Well the Helghast costumes look a bit panzyish in the real world, lol.

And he's not bailing, all he does is talk about how much he loves Killzone 2 and can't wait to be able to snuggle up to it as night.

Last post collection is at like what 5pm though usually? Just saying ShopTo said multiple times LE bundles would be sent tomorrow, so don't get your hopes up that high.

And yeah for what it's worth mine changed to shipped.

Killzone 2: The Multiplayer Maps

Killzone 2's multiplayer maps are some of the best on which I have ever fought. Most of them feature winding paths, various chokepoints, and clever placement of capture points, so even on the larger maps, there is no reason why you wouldn't be right in the thick of the action. You know how some shooter maps are great for, say, capture the flag, or deathmatch, but not for other modes? Killzone 2's maps may excel in some modes more than others, but possess no intrinsic weaknesses. And that's for the best, because matches string multiple modes seamlessly together, keeping you constantly on your toes and forcing you to switch gears several times in a single game.

And yes, the review is coming this week! In the meanwhile, I thought I'd fill you in on all eight maps that ship with Killzone 2, so I can give you further reasons to salivate.

Well my LE copy from ShopTo has been despatched today! So there is a good possibility I'll get it tomorrow!
Yup, my copy was dispatched too (Y) and I don't start uni until 1pm tomorrow, joy :woot:

My order from ShopTo also been despatched so there might be a chance it will come tomorrow.

I ordered LBP and Resistance 2 in the past from shopto which was sent out Tuesday with the game due out that Friday and got delivered Wednesday morning! 2 days before retail stores will sell it.

I was less than 1 Foot away from having 3 copies of the game...

So a friend of mine sent me a text message saying he heard Target in the US broke the street date. I got in my car and drove right there, as everytime I have called them I am on the phone longer waiting for someone than it actually takes me to drive there, literally.

So I walk in, and sure enough, there is 1 copy, face down, in the bottom of the case. I told the worker walking by I needed a game from the case, when she asked which one, I told her, and she said "oh, i need to go in the back of the store and get one, I need to leave one in the case."

I said "okay, make it three copies, I know my friend and brother in law will appreciate me saving them the trip."

So less than a minute later she comes walking out with three copies in her hand.

Then she went to ring them up and I just knew right away...

She rang it up, and the register said 00.00. Null Item.

She tried each one, same thing.

She then said "Thats weird, I have been selling these all day." (which of course drove me nuts hearing LOL)

So playing completely dumb, I said "well can you get a manager over here, something must be wrong."

She then let me walk behind the counter and showed me that if she could, she would override it herself as she was an assistant manager, but the only option she had was to choose Clear.

She then even tried to manually punch in the numbers. Same deal of course.

She did not notice it, but at the very top of the register's screen, it said "Street Date of 2/27/09"

So, I was less than 1 Foot away from having 3 copies of the game... :laugh:

Tomorrow morning first thing I think I might try the same Best Buy I was able to get the kid to sell my Little Big Planet 3 days early at.

Who knows, maybe I can even find the same kid, who was more than willing to go check in the back for me.

Dammit Larry, was just going to give you a lead in to your story... :laugh:

:laugh: And so everyone knows in case you could not tell from this reply, this was the friend who sent me the text message. Thanks again bro, so close. (Y)

Now you got me on a mission though, think I am definitely hitting up Best Buy tomorrow morning, just to see. :shiftyninja:

No problem man, anytime. I should have went to my local Target...too busy telling you instead. :laugh:

I just got a text message from ShopTo that they have despatched the game today even though it said despatched on the website last night.

I could drive to ShopTo in about 20 minutes if they would let me pick it up which is unlikely :p

Ah well, Anyone who ordered from ShopTo should get it tomorrow then!

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
