    Half left to download at ETA of 60 minutes, not so bad. Not sure if I should read the reviews or not. Jim Sterling said it's one of his longest reviews.

    Buggy mess as expected, and gamespot review very vague.

    Is it me, or game really looks downgraded from trailerS? I was never the moaner about ****ty graphics of F4. I though they were great, but the actual final review copy looks a lot worse.

    I'm the same. That said, I want to have my own experience of exploring the world rather than have someone else tell me what they thought of it.

    I'll give it a solid 20 hour playthrough on my own before I look up reviews.

    Ugh, I started into the gamespot review and now wish I hadn't. I got a small bit of info about the story, but I really wish I hadn't now. :(

    So.. no word from Gameseek about my cancellation. Debating purchasing digitally and then returning my game if they dispatch it before I do.

    Good idea/bad idea?

    Settles it so, will avoid the reviews until I play a bit. I saw 3 scores so far and final summaries. 9.5, 9.5 and 7.5. The latter experienced a lot of bugs, the first two just had a great laugh.

    Woo. It's working. Unlocking on steam. ETA of 20 minutes. :D

    I'm popping into Argos tomorrow morning and picking it up there. I'll put my Gameseek copy up on Adverts. I think i paid €52 so i should get most of it back.

    How much was it on Gameseek? CEX offering €52 cash for it.

    Don't get me wrong, it's not game breaking stuff, just sets the scene, but I wish I'd just found out on my own now. Cheers for those scores, that's all I was really after!

    Gamespots review is not really that spoilerish. I guess it just says your main quest, which I presume you will find out at the start anyway.

    On the other hand, review is very ****. Better find some other one.

    Oh really? Hmm.. that's interesting. Cheers for the heads up! It was €53.

    That's what I'll do. Will purchase the game digitally, if it still gets delivered, I'll sell it to CEX.

    No worries. Only losing out on €1.

    Just read the digital foundry early analysis, looks like XB fairs much worse than PS4 for frame rate. Ps4 is said to have an "overall smoother experience".

    There's only a price listing for Xbox One, so I've emailed them just to make sure it's the same price.

    Does anyone know what sort of storage would be required for PS4 for digital? I'm pretty much deleting everything I'm not playing at the moment.

    They actually got a drop to 0fps on the Xbox One :eek:

    But that's not the whole story. On top of this, Xbox One is unique in its suffering of a stuttering issue, halting the game experience for up to a second during play. It's a glaring hitch downward, and matching runs to the
    gates of Diamond City
    shows Xbox One dropping to a record 0fps (zero) while PS4 turns the same corner at 28fps. Each has their blips, but having tested two separate Xbox One and PS4 consoles, the results are always the same across the world at large; we get sizeable stutters on Microsoft's console that aren't present on PS4.

    Spoilered the name of a place, just in case ha!

    Playing away for the past 5 hours on XB1 now and it's running fine, absolutely beautiful!

    Yeah I saw that too, PS4 held 28fps in the same section. Hope there's nothing too crippling for either console to be honest, we all deserve to enjoy the **** out of this game :D

    Phew. Went a but overboard with deleting stuff so. Have freed up 100GB. I may have overestimated how big it'd be..
