I am waiting for the postman to arrive, in the UK, as he always seems to come middayish. Anyone got their preorder from GAME today? Give me hope? :)
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Game » consists of 17 releases. Released Aug 23, 2011
Human Revolution is the third game in the Deus Ex series, a prequel where players take control of augmented security officer Adam Jensen, and investigate attacks against Sarif Industries, a leader in augmentation technology.
UK Guys, anyone received theirs yet?
ShopTo.net always deliver early, except at the moment it says processing pre-orders. I'm just going to buy a steam code from them.
I have a friend who ordered from Game and his has arrived. He can't play it though because it is the Steam version!
Oh damn it, i really want to play this game, with every thread i see i want to play it more and more....can someone spare 44.99 €? You know I'm good for it.
Shopto.net delivered them all on Wednesday.
...and so far, the AI is pretty terrible. Just as a sidenote.
Did any of you guys splash out for the 75 quid version of the game?
The box alone is worth the extra £40. Not sure what kind of magic they infused it with, but it feels well swanky to the touch.
Also impressed with little dead Jensen figure found lying on top of the DVD case. A lot more detail and subtle articulation than the chunky NECA video game figures.
And then I tried to install the game only to be told by Steam that I'm not allowed to until midnight. Boo!
I know I shouldn't expect it because of previous expectations, but I've fallen in that trap today and now I'm disappointed. I'll get over it. It will arrive tomorrow and I'll enjoy playing it till my eyes bleed.
I shouldn't (and can't really) complain about not receiving it early, because that's just an occasional 'added bonus'. I knew the moment they started taking 'special care' to all the early pre-orders I wasn't going to get it early. I will get it tomorrow. I just wish they'd trust the system they already have in place.
Got my Augmented Edition today! Installing it now, whilst ripping the soundtrack from the bonus DVD. The music for this game is pretty fucking special.

Order through Play.com, getting it early isn't an "Added bonus" with them, it's pretty much a standard.
But I really see value in ordering from GAME, I get reward points which has given free games I got Dead space 1 for free and Fallout NV for free. (I think one other). In the end (with the limited monies I have) I actually see a better benefit if I stick to their site and brand because of the reward sceme.
I ordered from Game two days ago and it said it was on the way last night. Postman's just been so think I'll be getting mine tomorrow.
My friend got his on Wednesday from Shop To.
I sadly forgot to put in my order, so I'll just go out and pick up a copy tomorrow.
Also, am I the only one who Play.com are consistently missing release dates with? They used to be so reliable, but now I'm often not getting my game until Saturday or Monday if it was a Friday release.

Does anyone know if we get the same nifty sleeve as our brothers across the pond?
Can't be too sure. I picked up the Augmented Edition and it did not come with a shiny cover, so maybe not? Unless they thought paying more meant you didn't want shininess.
Here's some piccies. You can see that the front cover has an effect on it, it's not too prominent and it shows up really well in the camera flash but not greatly in normal lighting.
