This one snuck up on me. Looks like Final Fantasy and Metal Gear had a baby. Comes out Feb 28.

Yah I am a mixed bag on this one. Think it could be really great depending on game play and story or just be another miss in this type of genre.

The trailers look so good it will probably be terrible.

I have hope. Sony is slowly building a database to convince to buy a PS4.

Is this what happens when we don't beat the Machine god?

I pre-ordered it last weekend. I really hope I'm not disappointed once it comes out

Pre ordered the collectors edition last week. The game looks amazing graphically. I'm a big fan of open world games so hopefully this one is good.

It's getting great reviews across the board, so I'm now looking at this one! Was 50/50 on it before

This or Mass Effect.

HZD for me. As great as the story and characters are in ME, I never enjoyed the combat system.

Looks like neither will be a bad choice though.

Mass Effect comes out in a month. Get both

1 month

Still not enough time.

Unfinished games keep piling up.

I have Fallout 4 and I barely got past the opening mission. I just couldn't get into it for some reason. Maybe I'll give it another shot after HZD

I was on the fence for this one because I thought I was either going to be amazing or terrible. Based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews, it definitely seems to be amazing. I'll probably be picking it up to play before ME3 comes out.

There have been some negative reviews as well, but it seems like it's from people that couldn't accept the outlandish setting. I feel like I'd end up in that latter category, robot dinosaurs is a bit too far for my tastes.

Where have you read negative reviews? Every review I've read is in the good to excellent range.

The only negative review out of the 74 critic reviews on Metacritic is from a website I've never heard of.

Yeah it's been pretty much universally praised.

I really can't wait for this. Been waiting for a killer app new IP this entire generation, feels like this is it.

Euro Gamer and US Gamer on Gamespot's review roundup were less than complimentary, and in general the reviews favor gameplay over story/voice acting. I hope everyone that buys it enjoys the game, for me I'm going to wait for a price drop, because I don't have faith that the story is going to justify robo dinos.

So 2 out of 100 reviews were mixed, the rest overwhelmingly positive

is this a 4k game?

I've read that it is. Not that it will affect me any

I've read that this is one of if not the best looking game (even beating out uncharted and others).

Comparisons of PS4 vs PS4 pro on 4K are actually not that far apart

Amazon used to do release day delivery when preordering a game with prime. I just preordered, but the expected arrival date says March 2nd.

Did they stop the release day deliveries?

I pre-ordered 2 weeks ago and it says it will arrive on release day. Maybe there is a cut off for it? I had it happen with a game a few months ago. I pre-ordered it on a Friday and expected it on Tuesday when it was released, but it didn't get to my house until Thursday.

Hmm not sure. I've used amazon to pre-order before and they always have gotten it to me on release day. Maybe they're getting a lot of orders and it's causing a backlog.

I usually like physical but I went digital when I preordered yesterday to make sure I can play ASAP.

I preordered two weeks ago. It's already shipped and shows delivery on Monday.

I pre-ordered today and it's showing the March 2 estimated delivery, so I'm guessing there is a cut-off.

I guess I should clarify I preordered from best buy. The last game I preordered from them showed up two days before the actual release date. This one shows one day before.

I preordered from Target once, and the damn thing didn't ship until release day. Never again

Now I'm seeing the "preorder now to receive this the day it releases" option on amazon for HZD, and if I add it to my cart it says estimated delivery Feb 28th, but my preorder from yesterday still says March 2nd.


Wtf?

Cancel it and reorder. Unless they've already charged your card.
