Eclipse Magazine has uploaded a lot of footage (long videos as well), be quick though it is all embargoed, will probably be deleted (plus spoilers duh)

Not direct feed, video capture of TV being played, but quality is quite good.

(girl playing by the way, just FYI :p)

Aren't we supposed to discover and see all that once we play it nublet :p ?

Some people might only have 360s and need some convincing (not care about watching), I can't help spoil myself a LITTLE.

But yeah I do agree with you for such a story heavy game I am truly NOT watching all those videos - They will ruin and spoil things. I just like watching a min or two. Graphics are pretty awesome, and LOL @ Scott Shelby scene chapping wrong door and getting sex noises inside :p

Just admit it, you'll be watching 'em all and not once but twice ... probably even three times - We all know how much you want this game. However, I was playing a bit of Fahrenheit a few nights ago and that sparked a massive interest in this game. I still refuse to watch videos as the games biggest force is the story and the uniqueness of each scene, so I know it'll ruin the immersion if I have to 'replay' scenes / areas I've already seen.

Oh and the game needs multiplayer, co-op milk drinking ftw (Y)

I just watched the Scott Shelby scene(s) and it was nice, just a wee bit of story wasting, the voice acting seemed good (some early preview builds were terrible) and yeah there was some of the context button pushing but it all seems quite well handled - I mean without spoiling you there is a fight scene, but doing one button wrong doesn't end anything the fight just takes different paths.

You do seem to control the character like a character in any other game, it's not an on rails QTE game, you just push buttons for certain environmental or character interactions.

It looks like a real good improvement over Fahrenheit.

And as I said, graphically, for not even being direct feed really good, good facial animations as well for talking/emotions.

I'm trying hard not to watch more, seriously, if there's one game I actually want to see as I go along it's this one, I really don't want to know what happens - I know it's going to be grim though, heck it's about the serial killing of children. For all the nudey picz n that going around, I do trust this is going to have a pretty good story, no over the top hollywood stuff, no aliens or supernatural, just a dark story with multiple endings depending on how you play the game.

edit: The girl playing does suck though, I don't know why when we get footage of things early it's always by someone who can't use a controller.

Just from the pictures alone I'm itching to get a PS3 and this game. Looks leagues beyond GTA.

LOL game has pretty much nothing in common with GTA at all, it's an adventure game, with a pinch of action at best. Very story heavy.

Did Amazon drop the ball on this one or has the game really been delayed?

Just a mistake, all the retailers (shops) around some of the EU countries are now putting February into their systems and Sony have at least confirmed February for Japan.

Online retailers are garbage for release dates, one minute they're making you all giddy thinking GT5 is coming on the 19th of December 2009, next minute they're saying March 2013. Just because there's no confirmed EU/US date yet the Amazon system just has to enter something.

Yea, I guess Amazon is kind of wacky that way. I just had to approve a delay in my preorder of Final Fantasy XIII Versus because they had trouble "obtaining the item". Once they find it, they'll let me know :D

Special Edition is exclusive to HMV :(

I guess the only upside is you do get one of the DLC additions and a theme that would normally cost for the normal RRP of a game. I have an HMV voucher from Christmas as well :D Hope they sell the Special Edition in stores, vouchers can't be used online :(

Yup the first bolded part is apparent when combined with the comparison to Silent Hill :p
