2K Games has identified a small percentage of Big Daddy figurines that have been damaged in transit to US and Canadian retailers. Since redemption will not be immediate as replacement figurines are currently beginning production, we will be also sending affected customers a complimentary special printed edition of the BioShock art book, "Breaking the Mold," to enjoy while the replacement figurines are produced and shipped. Additionally, 2K Games will cover all shipping costs for the figurines and art book.

Please note that this offer applies to U.S. and Canadian consumers only.
 
 
 
While were on the subject of big daddies, the figurines are hitting ebay now. Their going for as much as the damn game costs

						I honestly don't mind a whole lot, I was just gunna super glue the tip back on. The way it's painted you wouldn't have noticed <3 But hey, I like that art book so having the actual book is pretty cool. Won't feel like I got fucked with the LE. No steel case, no cloth poster, broken big daddy, horrible shit sound track that isn't a sound track.

						I was at Mediamarkt (German gadget shop supreme  ) They had a FULL SIZE BIG DADDY THERE....MAN! I want one...but i guess it would be a stand off between BD and the Mrs  
 
Not from Mediamarkt but the same 
 
 
 
My BD had no broken drill, and I got the metal case. Now hes actually on my sons desk (had to take him home from the office...or pay with my life...I chose life  )

hehhe same.. figured fuck it and got the demo... just finished playing it, and i gotta say...ehhh... maybe the hype got too me, but the graphics werent as amazing as people kept telling... sorry but they really werent... the water effects were pretty though, and the game ran nice on my pc, everything turned up and it didnt drop below 70fps at 1152x864... and wow, the blood looked comical... overall, id stil play this game, the little bit of story that teh demo gave you seemed pretty interesting, so yeah i think id enjoy the game overall, but people saying that these are the greatest visuals ever are obviously part of the hype bandwagon... thats not to say the visuals arent really good, just not amazingly so
 
 
side-note, wtf was with that bit where you get locked in an area with the security shit enabled and you keep getting shot at... what do you need to do to progress? i just ran around like an asshole for 5 minutes and shot at everything until the door opened... *shrugs*

						It would be real nice and fluffy like if we could keep at least one BS thread open as I really enjoy hearing about peoples experience with the game.  Some dudes are just getting hot about certain aspects of the game and the banter getting interesting and then wham, bam, thank you, locked.  It's really heart rendering, you know?

You know you can ask them to sell you it or make a donation to charity of their choice to get that if you want it Cpt.
 
That looks like a Game store. All the Game stores here have the purple livery.

BTW I've cleaned up the thread so keep on topic.
