Fuzzle Guy 03-01-2005 09:52 AM

I'm not in Holland though, I'm in the Isle of Man, which means it's the 4th for me

Software Bug 03-01-2005 11:33 AM

_GrubHunter_ 03-01-2005 11:35 AM

In Europe, the official lunch date is (I think it is) in 4th of March.

Godlesswanderer 03-01-2005 11:49 AM

Hmmmm... Play.com says it's already out. http://play.com/play247.asp?pa=stcs2...X&title=556421

This can't be right.

Edit:

Although it says they will dispatch it within 24 hours it is in the Coming Soon section for the 4th of March.

Leto 03-01-2005 08:42 PM

Oh really damn, again. And, yes, oh God yes. Thank God it is coming out, but curse myself for not pre-ordering it for the DVD... Oh well, game out soon, soon to be played. Huzzah. :)

Soon, all of us will be able to go to the spoiler forum, and spoilers will not be so un-welcomed in the GD. As much.

Alcar 03-01-2005 09:22 PM

Yes, the official date of PAL release is the 4th of March. However, I guess it really depends on how moronic your national EA Games is - I've had the game for nearly a week now.

Alcar...

Xavier 03-01-2005 11:33 PM

all the stores are telling me I have to wait tommorow, which is stupid, I have a free day today and school tommorow... :(

big bro boogie 03-02-2005 04:33 AM

well its really true that in holland the game will be released on march 3rd, wich means i still have to wait for umm 12 hours... druel

Oddish 03-02-2005 09:56 AM

Well 2 more days-to-go for us brits. I want to try to get on the 3rd.

Software Bug 03-03-2005 04:02 AM

_GrubHunter_ 03-03-2005 05:43 AM

Ohh, I must wait for tommorow... :(

Fuzzles! 03-03-2005 06:18 AM

Glad that you guys are finally getting it!!! If you can't get it early, well only one more day to go! Technically, half a day. :) Are stores staying open all night like they did here so you can buy it at midnight tonight?

Xavier 03-03-2005 11:30 AM

I have it for 2 days now... I'm at Explosive McGee now :D

Oddish 03-03-2005 12:18 PM

Congrats on the getting the game guys. 1 day-to-go.

erwinraaben55 03-03-2005 12:40 PM

I am still very busy with school :argh:
Didn't even have time to go to a shop to buy it. I was always at home after the shops were closed.

Fuzzle Guy 03-04-2005 04:37 AM

It comes out today but I preordered so I have to wait longer!

_GrubHunter_ 03-04-2005 04:39 AM

Nooooooooo!.... The Ultima.pl, will have stranger in 9th March........ noooo!!!

Fuzzle Guy 03-04-2005 04:50 AM

what's the ultima.pl?

_GrubHunter_ 03-04-2005 05:07 AM

site, where I pre-ordered OSW (polish site).

T-nex 03-04-2005 08:41 AM

YAY! I got my stranger :D I didn't even pre-order, cuz i wouldn't get the bonus DVD anyway... Which sucks... But now i'll spend my whole day on playing the game!!! :D

Oddish 03-04-2005 01:21 PM

I also got Stranger's Wrath! It's great, it gets much more interesting as you go forwards, and the enviroments are so big. I'm on the The Buzzarton level right now.

Cyber-Slig 03-04-2005 01:23 PM

Good on ya, Oddish and T-Nex. Although, the game is rather short. Or atleast I found it short. Planning on playing it all night, since it's yer Birthday, Oddish?

Software Bug 03-04-2005 11:46 PM

i finished it and it had an ending i woulnt espect....

Wil 03-05-2005 07:03 AM

The chance to play OSW for a whole weekend was what compelled me the most to complete all my homework. :D

I'm up to Packrat Palooka. Man, that guy is tough.

Fuzzle Guy 03-05-2005 10:53 AM

I got Stranger the day it was released, that's seriously good for a pre-order, I've just got Ugine Ious

Dualist 03-05-2005 11:11 AM

About damn time you Euro's, and Aussies, got the game!

I'm surpised Fuzzle Guy got the game the day it released. It took one day after for my store to sell the copies.

Xavier 03-05-2005 11:18 AM

Finished it just an hour ago...
I didn't expect some parts of the ending, but it was nice.

Software Bug 03-05-2005 01:08 PM

mod's i have one question are we able to talk here about the ending or do we have to in the spoiler forums?

Thank you,
Tim H C

Yeah, he's hard to beat, took me ages.


:

You finnished it already? Oh yeah, you got a day earlier than me. Well I'm at Flint"Xplosive" Mgee.

But I'm Sill very dispointed at the Booklet.

Leto 03-05-2005 06:48 PM

I got the game 2 days ago, played it for about 15 hours, and finished it ten minutes ago. Wow- that was the single best game on Xbox I have ever played. Yipee! Too bad I already knew the main plot twist, due to the first '**Real Spoilers**' thread. Feh.

The hardest boss I say was the guy in the cart, and you had to shoot those electric things.. I forgot his name, but he was a real bastard to beat.


(As you can see, I have been on Stranger leave for a while. Now I'msa back!)

Havoc 03-05-2005 07:52 PM

Im tracking trough the junkyard on my way to meeting palooka right now... I wonder if I will be able to beat him in fassionable time :P. I usualy end up using my entire arsenal against an enemy and ending up having to kill them cuz I don't have any decent ammo left :P.

Leto 03-05-2005 08:36 PM

In the later levels, I suggest just punching enemies. Either until they are knocked out, or fall into water/ off a cliff. It helped me a heaploads. :p

Software Bug 03-06-2005 12:17 AM

Godlesswanderer 03-06-2005 01:05 AM
