IF I return it I guess I lose out on the coupon? That would suck because I'd like to be able to use it on something else.
    If you used a rewards coupon and then return something the points will go back in your bank....although I don't know how long it takes to get them back. I would imagine a while.

      Ok, that's cool. I thought I remember something like that. I'm in no hurry I just thought it would be stupid to lose out on the points.

        I always did free roam. Didn't care to try and do anything specific. A bunch of my friends just went into rooms and started creating carnage.

              Spec Ops: The Line gets significant delay...

              It's been a long time since 2K Games talked about Spec Ops: The Line, following its sand-filled E3 debut. There's apparently good reason for that: you're not going to be playing the game anytime soon.

              The news comes via an updated release schedule released by parent company Take-Two Interactive.

              Take-Two now lists the game as coming in the first half of fiscal 2013. 2013! Today, Take-Two is talking about its financial results for fiscal 2011 and expectations for fiscal 2012. That means Spec Ops: The Line won't be arriving until at least sometime after March 31, 2012. It's a substantial delay.

              As the Internet is ablaze with new impressions of BioShock: Infinite, it's worth reporting how the game's being positioned release-wise--but Take-Two isn't saying much, sadly. Take-Two is only promising BioShock: Infinite in "calendar year 2012," which means basically anytime next year.

              XCOM is a little more specific, with Take-Two expecting to release that one before March 31, 2012.

              Max Payne 3, expected to be the next project from Rockstar Games, is not listed. However, Rockstar Games productions are not typically listed on Take-Two release schedules, so its fate is unknown.

                      I rented Brink from Redbox, and my goodness was it bad. I played the campaign by myself for a little while but it was generic as hell and the bots were retarded. Tried to play online but was too laggy to even try.

                        That just convinced me not to try it. There has been a lull in the shooter market, and they've tried to hit it with the ad campaign they had going on, and almost had me hooked. But, I've been playing through some older games and have LA Noire so I didn't get it.

                          That's what I've been hearing on every podcast. The funniest was the Game Informer show. They lambaste it for like twenty minutes and then the two reviewers said they gave it a 6.75 and a 7?!? What? It sounded like it shouldn't have received anything higher than a 5.

                            Anyone else here play Alan Wake? I just finished Chapter 4. It is a pretty good story though it is a bit long and it gets kinda repetitive at times when you spend tons of time on just killing bad guys, but get just a few minutes of story.

                              I told you I did motherfucker! Ha.

                              Yeah, I really enjoyed it although the combat is ridiculously repetitive. The atmosphere, graphics and story make up for it though.

                              I played through the two expansions as well.

                                Yea I got the first expansion for free (I bought it used, I guess whoever had it before didn't like it). Depending how I feel after I finish the six chapters and first expansion I may buy the second one. Overall it is a very good game, just my main gripe is as you said the combat is really repetitive. At first the combat was cool, but after atleast the second chapter it is just annoying. Thankfully the rest of the game is very good.
