Oh well, hopefully that means it'll still be available to buy long after release so that I can pick it up on the cheap!

Definitely one CE destined for the bargain bin.

AFAIK the deadline is release day now, so 'moved' rather than 'scrapped' - only pre-orders g'tee to get one - the question is how many shops pre-order their own stock!

This will be my first Max Payne game. I have the Special Edition preordered for all three systems: Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. I can't decide which one to keep and which two to cancel. PS3 will be on one disc as opposed to Xbox 360 on two discs. I don't know if if graphics/gameplay will be better on one console over the other. The PC graphics will probably be best, but I hear Rockstar does not have a good reputation for pc releases. Also will gameplay be good with a mouse and keyboard? Will pc version support xbox controller? Any opinions welcome. Thanks.

If we talk about rockstar games then the graphic quality goes like this

PC > Xbox360 > PS3

Just check the requirements to see if you can run it @max settings +30fps, if you can't run it @medium settings +30fps then go for the Xbox version.

And yes, keyboard and mouse is the best option for Third Person Shooters.

Lol what a pile of shit, for 99 you get a keychain, a shitty figure and some mediocre art prints.....

Compared to diablo 3, better presentation, behind the scenes dvd/blu ray set, soundtrack CD, a real artbook, a pendrive with Diablo 2 and a little skull

The statue is a bit too shiny or it must've been the lighting. I have to see it in person before i made my judgement. And yes, i'd already paid for it and will picking up at mid-night.

I'm not bumped out or anything. I need to see it person. But so far seeing from the video.

The game has been getting really really good reviews, hopefully this makes the CE more valuable... can't wait to pick it up later! Anyone pick it up yet?
