Codemasters have REALLY let down BIS. I don't know why BIS still sticks with them. With a little more advertising/marketing, OPF would have been so much more sucessful.

mad.gif

And also us Aussies would get OPFR on the 28th aswell if they distributed it properly.

my compter hating brother was telling me how cool ghost recon is before hes even seen it ive had ofp for a year and he has only just realised he never even heard of it. I found out about ofp by a fluke other wise it would have been just another box on the shelf.

And I swear to God, she actually asked if I was sure I wasnt looking for Ghost Recon. LOL, its like UbiSoft has paid distributors off to be biased against OFP

I was reading all these miserable little stories yesterday afternoon, and just trundled on down to HMV and there it was, all surreal and in material form etc

Sometimes it's actually good to live in the UK smile.gif

Damn!

No resistance in Sweden either...

In a big shop in Sweden, they just said that they were waiting for the distributor to send them some copies of the game.

But on their website it stands that ofp:r should be released yesterday.

So i dont think that it's the shops fault, it is codemasters that never sends some copies in time. It can take a month longer for the games to be distributed if the games aren't scandinavian.

Thats bad sad.gif

It'll be released around 2nd of jult...count on it...damn Codemasters. Why do they say Resistance released in europe while it should say. "we, as the dumbasses we are, only released it in two European countries. The rest should just fucking wait"? This really sucks. mad.gif  mad.gif  mad.gif  mad.gif

EDIT: So please update your news section BIS, it gives a lot of people false hope... mad.gif
