    Nope, but is there any reason we would? Surely we shouldn't get that until tomorrow?

    Usually drops around 10pm or so, along with a text if you entered your mobile details.

    Agreed about spoilers but I think i'll just unfollow, too many eejits around only too happy to spoil it for people.

    Vg247 Irish journo used the guitar mechanic to recreate the songs below. Fairly ****ing cool. Don't watch if you don't want to see the guitar playing in action.

    Red Hot Chilli Peppers – Californication
    Soundgarden – Black Hole Sun
    Shawn James – Through the Valley
    Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here
    Chris Isaak – Wicked Game
    Jeff Buckley – Hallelujah
    The Cranberries – Zombie
    Radiohead – Creep
    Bob Marley – Redemption Song
    The White Stripes – Seven Nation Army

    It would be just like me having avoided all the spoilers for months to watch a walkthrough hours before it releases

    I see that you can customize the difficulty like in Shadow of The Tomb Raider. You can change Player, enemies, allies, stealth and resources difficulty independent of each other

    Review is up if anyone is interested. We discussed it a lot and are more or less on the same page.

    Tldr, we liked it :) but much like the first there were areas that could have been better. But they weren't enough to take away from it overall brilliance.

    Spoilers are at a minimum. It is mainly game mechanics, and the broader overall theme, but don't read if you want to keep totally fresh.

    Mine's not working either. Apparently it doesn't update until it's collected by their delivery partners?
    Doesn't bode well for tomorrow.

    That's a great review man!

    Really like the sound of the below.

    "Enemies also seem to live in the world, you never get that feeling of entering a space seeing five waist-high concrete walls and just knowing you will have to face off against waves of enemies. This is probably the best improvement"

    Ok, warning everyone now: This review has character spoilers, period, as in character reactions. Not minor, not minimum...spoilers.

    It is possible to review this game without spoilers, we've seen proof of this with SkillUp, IGN etc.

    I feel the opposite on that. Bone-Idle review's discussion of characters seemed to be where they stood when tlou 1 ended and i had to stop watching skillup because the video showing gameplay was more of a spoiler to me. After reading BI review, i don't know anything more about characters or story than i already did from tlou 1 and official tlou 2 trailers.
