I was wondering about the review myself. I was going to get this at launch but decided against it, I've been burned before. I'm sure Gamespot is taking its time and actually playing the game to completion instead of just playing the game for a few hours and putting up a review based on that.

There is a review already up over at GameTrailers that is pretty fair or so it seems. There is also one over at IGN but I don't know anyone who takes their reviews for a grain of salt.

In either case, I've decided to wait until next week to possibly get the game just incase there are some game breaking bugs and glitches that surface, that kind of stuff really ruins my fun.

 Well, if you want some random joe's opinion, I'll say that this game is probably one of the most surprising games I've played in a year. I bought on launch. Pre-ordered even. I did this knowing full well I was taking a risk on both another potential capcom craptastrophe AND a game that had equal odds to totally rock or totally suck.

 Expected mediocre. Got a pretty damn good game. It has its problems. A lot of people are talking about the game being hard, but honestly the majority of the difficulty comes from the fact that enemies do a TON of damage with even small attacks and almost 90% of everything they'll swing will also flinch-stun you. I've died more to stun-locks after being grazed by an attack then I have to a mistake or misjudgment on my part.

 So, you know. Be ready for that. If you can handle a few cheap feeling deaths in order to play a pretty damn good RPG then you are totally set. Also, you should probably brace yourself for really BS DLC since that is the way Capcom works.

Hearing thats its hard actually makes me want to get this. Probably next after Im done with Skyrim...still need batman though.

I never buy systems day one I like to have a few games to choose from that way I don't beat one game then have to wait months for something else I like to come out and my system just sits their.

deeper and longer campaign for me CTR360

I've heard a lot of people complain about the campaign length of these games and I don't understand it really. I thought the games were the perfect length not to long or short. Resident Evil 5 was the first game that made me go WTF when I beat it that was incredibly to short. These games have always felt just perfect for me they end just before I'm ready to move on.

I for sure plan on getting this game but I'm in no rush so I've been letting the price drop down. The first one one was one of my favorite games of all time. The second one I got to the last level but never beat it. Haven't played the series since then. The demo for this one was a lot different then the normal games but I actually liked it seems pretty cool. I'll probably check it out just before Dragon age 2 hits.

If this is anything like AA then this will be an awesome game. I seriously loved the first AA was such a great game. The last Batman game I loved this much was on Nintendo.

I have a 20GB Pro and haven't even thought of getting rid of it for a 250 S. Why spend $300 on something I have sitting on my shelf?

Pretty much I have the arcade model and bought a seperate 20gb hard drive I haven't seen any reason to change. I don't buy DLC if I really like a game I'll play the originial and beat it like that and then wait for a GOTY edition and complete it from there.

I'll be getting this game soon I just ordered a PS3. Theres a few games i want to play on thsi ssytem so I figured might as well go ahead and get one. I've just always felt it's such a waste to have two consoles but oh well. The main thing that attracted me to this game is all the complaints about how hard it is. The one thing about games these days is there so damn easy.

Granted I don't want to go back to the days of the gensis/snes where some games were unbeatable. Chakkan anyone?

Been waiting way to long to get this game. This a a guaranteed day one buy for me. I'm just having a hard time deciding if I should get Borderlands or Magna Carta 2 in the mean time. I probably wont get either cause I doubt they'll get played much if at all once I get dragon age.

Yea the PS3 is a great system I really wish they would have done better software wise for me at least. I know people are satisfied with the games they released but I just don't like almost any of there games at all. Ninja Gaiden 2 I admit was absolutely amazing to me I can't even play the game on 360 because I just keep thinking about how great it was on PS3 so much more realistic I felt like a real Ninja in that game.

If they just would have released some more RPGs Mass Effect and Gears of War are simply amazing now though.

Yes RROD was the whole reason I got a PS3 to begin with hell no did I want to be in the middle of playing an epic game and then have my console crash and need repairs. The problem is Sony decided to pick this gen to have absolutely no games I was interested in. I repeat any games "I" was interested in I don't need any sony fan boys attacking me. So I decided if I'm just going to let my PS3 sit there for months at a time might as well get a 360 cause if it does break and I can't play it, it will be no different from me no playing my PS3 like I was.

I already knew I would love the games on 360 cause I had played some of there games on the PC but only a little to get an idea of there games. Gears of War awesome my #2 favorite game Mass Effect wow just an epic game full of everything I love. FPS,RPG,Great Story, Space ships, Aliens. I love all these things and Mass Effect threw them all together. I'll admit though other then Halo 1 I haven't or wanted to play any of the otehr games. Halo 2 I played a little of and it sucked.
