Rayman Origins

[Tricai]

Yup, they're up in Europe now. It's a good thing that these files were small, even our suckish internet connection downloaded all 10 in a breeze.

As for RO.. I just found out this from a website for a company that imports games over to Finland. http://www.plan1.fi/index.php?tuote_id= ... =Hae&ref=2
Looks like I've got myself covered for Collector's Editon.
(and this probably means that this edition will come all over Europe in the end, not just exclusive to a few countries?)

[Spanex]

Exclusive to some countries? I hope not!

[Haruka]

It would be stupid if it was exclusive to some countries.

I still don't know if I'm either going to pre-order the game in any UK website or if I'll contact the national distributor via e-mail in beginnings of November and ask if they'll have it here. And Spanex is trying to make me force buying a PS3, now I cannot really decide which console I'll get.

Not forcing, just lightly giving a push

In the end I'm not the one to decide anyway.

[Tricai]

Yeah country exclusivity wouldn't make any sense, but I remember there being some worrying comments about it a few months back? Unless I've actually missed something. Well anyway, it's starting to spread in many stores (according to Google) now.

[SuperSunshine]

Ohhh i think i'll give you a light push too Haruka! But like spanex said its up to you.

Country exclusivity is something... weird, because you could blame UbiSoft that RO is not available at all in e.g. Transnistria. I don't think we'll get CE in Poland.

If I were you, Haruka, I'd get an XB360. I'd get it because of its exclusives, though, E.G. Super Meat Boy, Braid, Limbo, From Dust. Some of these games and others I want are also for PS3, and there are also exclusives for PS3, but I'd still buy an XBox.

[stan423321]

I'm rather towards 360 but for different reasons. Primarily, price, then price. Sony has superior Poland support and (IMO) more interesting exclusives for PS3 but price fused with OtherOS thing make me disliking the company.

[Haruka]

At this moment, I'm turned to the Xbox 360 4GBs version mostly because it is the cheapest alternative I have (About 50€ of difference with the 160GBs PlayStation 3). But I'm starting to reflect about the Online Store issue. To access Xbox Live, you need to pay while in the PlayStation Network it is for free. The PS3 has been starting to have a more interesting catalogue of games than back in the first years of existance.

If I want the PS3, I must really try to save a little more of money. Even if it means that I must buy the PS3 Collector's Edition first, and getting the console after when I have enough.

[Tricai]

Just keep in mind that Xbox Live fee is only if you want to play games online. You can still access the store itself and download demos/games/etc without it.
While Ps3's online gaming is all free as well, it also is less stable than that of 360. (Just thinking of those times when I desperately tried to get in a multiplayer session in AC Brotherhood, had to wait 30 minutes, got in and the game disconnected immediately. )

But if you're not all that frequent for playing games online, Ps3 will do just fine. Personally I also think it has more interesting exclusives than Xbox has, but they both share many great multiplatform titles as well, so it's not all that bad. Whichever you think is for best/you can afford, really.

[Haruka]

It is rare to play online games myself. It isn't a frequent activity so the PS3 would go fine for me.

Something tells me if I want the PS3, I cannot play RO in the release date.

[iambored2006]

Your soul will be tormented for evermore... or at least until you get the console. Never get a game before you have a way to play it!

[stan423321]

In case of any bigger DLC or DLC for another game, 4GBs is unfortunately not enough.

[Haruka]

There's a little problem: Collector Edition's have fame to disappear too much quickly few time after release.

[stan423321]

And not even imported somewhere.

I'm in similar case with new Zelda, I want that Wii Remote Plus edition, but it seems to be pre-order only, and for 99% Polish retailers wouldn't be allowed to join it.

[iambored2006]

I'm probably not gonna get it anyway. Two reasons: I already pre-ordered it. I don't care much for a collector's edition. The main thing is the game, and I'll probably be able to get the other stuff on the internet.

[Haruka]

That's why I still not sure where I'll buy it. I'll see what I can do in 2 months.
