Oh FFS. They're now saying mid-May?!!
I heard it was as finished as it was ever going to be, and there would be no post-release support, so what the hell is up with the delay??
*mutter*

I just started playing this again after a break for finishing Deadly Shadows.
I stopped playing just as I had got in to the warehouse and now I am in the sewers (first save point).
I'm not minding the save points very much. Yeah sure you have to replay some parts but it adds to the suspence and makes the game just hard enough. You just have to figure out what to do. Often it is quite obvious. As when you should enter the sewers:
[SPOILER]I found it very obvious that you should send the lorry down the road. That was quite nice, running after it and seeing one of the fishmen mowed down and the others following the lorry. I thought I should enter the lorry but I didn't manage so I ran after and snuck down the sewers. First time I got killed by the fan but second time I got through. Has anyone been able to enter the lorry?[/SPOILER]
I see this as an action adventure. It's very linear just like a point and click adventure but just like in an adventure you need to use your brain more than your triggerfinger and that's nice.
It's not perfect but it is a good game with lots of atmoshere.:thumb:

[spoiler]Yep, you've got a few seconds delay before the truck starts rolling so you can jump in the back of it. IIRC, jumping while in the back of the truck while rolling down the hill you can get you some pretty nasty injuries.[/spoiler]

[SPOILER]Do you jump out before the truck falls down the hole? The way it looked when I got down there I wouldn't have wanted to be in there :eek: [/SPOILER]

:confused: EBGames and Gamestop still show a release date of April 24th.

[spoiler]When the truck falls down into the hole you can get out of it; I always rode the truck all the way down.[/spoiler]

Finished it a few days ago, overall I liked it much. Great atmosphere, and after I saw credits I thought that no other music can fit it better, music composer did a great job.
Diagnosis - clinically insane, but clean as drug-user :cheeky: Interesting, what diagnoses are possible at all? Is it possible to stay sane?

I guess us states folk will be the last ones to enjoy this gem. Man! What a wait! :(

Just got a call from Gamestop saying that they have it! I am off to pick it up! Man, what a grueling wait! :mad: I feel like the last person on earth to play it!
