Arrrrrrrrrrgh! Just got a notificaion from GAME that my copies of Crimson Skies, Worms 3D and Simpsons Hit & Run have been despatched today using Royal Mail First Class Delivery - just watched the news and there are postal 'wildcat strikes' all over the country today! Brilliant timing or what!

Re: New games & the Postal Strike's !
Had a good play of it tonight, on- & offline.

The single player mode isn't actually too bad. It's not amazing, but it's pretty good, & good fun.

The Live play is excellent. Very enjoyable, lots of fun, good laugh etc. Definitely worth getting this game just for the XBL play, IMO. Also makes a change from all the endless FPS Live games.

Cas, heres a link to areas affected by the postal strike...think Game despatches are safe as these come from Berkshire and nothing noted for there on the link!
