1. I can't believe they're pushing this game so hard already with a 2012 sometime release date.
I know, I really can't be bothered to care about it this early. Would rather them save their advertising money and give out some really great promotional swag like the BS2 advertising team did. That was even more fun than the actual game. I shall forever treasure my Rapture Records vinyl and my membership card to the International Order of the Pawns, and I will never forget how creeped out I was both times when I unexpectedly received a sketchily labeled piece of mail with no return address on it. I was really freaked out by the membership card with my name on it, and it took me a good 10 minutes or so to begin to suspect it was another piece of BS2 promo. I regret not sending a letter to Mark Meltzer earlier in order to received the Little Sister's drawing and paper dolls. The was the coolest video game advertising campaign I have ever seen.
And C3PX, which Game Informer cover did you get? The one with the little boy or with the young girl on it?
Neither. I got the murder of crows cover. The one with the creepy man wearing a bowler hat, sitting on a park bench, leaning on his cane, surrounded by crows. It took me a while to realize that it was my new issue of Game Informer, rather than just some random junk mail Halloween store catalog.
