Already went with Game - decided a game like this deserves to have an actual place on my shelf :)

Also, anyone know if the game supports MP of any sort? Would be good to play a coop game thru etc etc

No MP they wanted to make the most awsomesauciest SP game they could.

but who knows what the modding community will do when the design kit is out ;)

Any word on whether or not there's a trial version? Friend of mine at work is asking about it.


EDIT: Is the music Marilyn Manson?

decisions decision

game has many items (5 (i think) including an unlock for mass effect 2) and an exclusive quest and character.

or steams 2 items and exclusive quest and keep with storage

i bet whats missing from each will be available as DLC later, or *cough* torrent.  as i know i torrented Fallout 3s extras.

Wouldnt surprise me about DLC - and tbh I do like owning actual media for biowares games (despite a second monitor, a manual in my hands is always good).

For us continentals, the choice is rather simple: buy it on steam for 50(!) euro, or buy it through a UK based store *cough*Gameplay*cough* and get it for 28ish.
Too big a difference there for some virtual items to swing the balance.  ;D

I've only just twigged. This is a single-player game, isn't it?
