    So another TNT is just around the corner, and I must say I was pretty hyped when I heard that we'd be playing one of my most anticipated games of 2011, namely Dead Space 2: Revenge of Clarke. However, when I shortly after remembered that this game will not be on shelves here in europe untill friday (read: the day after TNT) my heart quickly sank. Because of this, I won't be able to partake in the violent dismemberment to come. Le sigh.
     
    So I just figured I'd check and see if anyone else feels the same. Please make your voice heard. 
     

    Please note!!! 

    This is NOT in any way, shape or form a whine post. I'm pretty much over it now and I have come to terms with the fact that I will not be participating. Also, I'm not demanding that Giant Bomb change the way they do things. I just think it's a shame that so many people will be unable to get in because of one single day.

    It does sucketh something fierce, but this isn't the first time and won't be the last that we'll miss out because of our release date differences. I suppose you could argue that Dead Space 2 is up because there's little else and it's the new title, but there's always ''something'' else they could put up instead, what with their occasional Classics edition of the TNT.

    @zoskia: if you really want to play it for TNT reserve it a small independent game shop (basically not Game) they might have it one or two days earlier you never know

    Indeed. And if I remember correctly they have actually pushed a game back a week because of the release date over here once

    Surely a LBP2 /Breach TNT would be more appropriate as those have both already been released in Europe by then? Just a thought.

    A LBP2 TNT wuuuuuut?? Really, how would that even work? =S Four player maximum cooperative isn't large scale enough to make for a fun TNT.

    yankees still feel that hate for king george boiling up in their veins so much that they purposely deny us, the inhabitants of the old continent, the joy of limb riping, guts splatering action... and for that i say to you americans: y'all bad men! seriosuly! :'(

    I don't think they will.
     
    Anyway, to the point. I can understand that your bummed out by that, and it really is too bad for Europeans who are into Dead Space 2's multiplayer and TNT. I personally don't care that much though, because I usually enjoy watching TNT more than I enjoy playing multiplayer games.

    Where about's in europe are you? Because if it's mainland europe, TNT doesn't start until 1 or 2 am, so if you get to a 24 hour supermarket or a game store doing a midnight launch, you should be able to get it before TNT. If you're in the UK, TNT starts at midnight, so that makes things a bit trickier. In that case best bet is to preorder it from an online retailer and hope it get's delivered a day or two early. That does happen surprisingly often when you preorder online.

    They've done SC2 and Civ5 TNT's before and those used a lot less than 4 people... It's not ideal but it would work.

    That's exactly why I never liked those TNTs. Plus they were at least competitive driven; LBP2 has levels that incorporates competitive play but.... blaaah I suppose it would be pretty fun to watch, thinking about it, with all the unpredictable nonsense that can ensue.
