No - I think Ben ordered from Gameplay.

My order is with GAME is currently showing the status as 'Committed'. It also states that my order will be delivered in time for the release date - we'll see I guess.......if that's true i'd expect it to ship in the next day or so.

Gameplay SAYS that it will be dispatched today BUT its entirely possible that their preorder system does this with games-yet-to-be-released. Having said that if they do get it out this early, they'll be my first port of call for future game buyage.

And in a perverse twist Play.com are now showing Bioshock for the 360 as being 'In Stock'.

Hmmm, and I cancelled my preorder with them - wonder if they actually DO have it In Stock and have started shipping - never can tell with those buggers.....

List of achievements. (possibly mildly spoileriffic).

Looks like there is plenty to do.

Game have been packing mine since last Friday. Must be a hell of a big box. Probably done up in a nice red bow. :)

Played the demo and enjoyed it quite a bit, which suprised me as I fucking HATE playing FPS games with a joypad.

Anyway, I may wander in town on Firday and pick up a copy. :)

It's weird.

I have a hard time with FPS's that have been designed for the PC and then ported. I have less of a problem with FPS's that are designed with the joypad in mind......

I'll be interested to see how Halflife 2 turns out in that respect.......

Played it at lunch time, even with the graphic settings on high, it doesn't seem quite as nice looking as the 360.
