7 sleeps !

[bigROBOTbill]

One week people!

I can almost smell it.

[5tacK]

I recommend a shower ;)

[Machpants]

Yeah massive week for me: moving house, quitting job, becoming stay-at-home-Dad and to cap it all BEEF THREE!

[Demandred]

I feel sorry for the kids :)

"Dad can we please...."
"NO YOU CAN'T!! Dads busy with BF3...."

:)

[Machpants]

Damn you've seen through my cunning plan!

[hawkwindnz]

Mach, do what I did, and send them to the grandparents for a day or two on release day... Muahahahahaaa!

Bags already packed with school uniforms etc.

[Demandred]

more trying to see how I can do the same tbh

[Emrico1]

Wonder how long the Missus will hang around for after release?

As long as she pays the power :excitement:

[=C=]

Wow time flies... I can't believe it's the 20th already... It still feels like Sept...

For me time flies so quick that by tomorrow it will be the 28th for me :D

As I blink hours go by :D

[hoodieblanket]

^ blink more often please

[Dezignah]

If only i could go to sleep and wake up to the 27th. Anyone got a time machine I could borrow?

[hawkwindnz]

better still Boarding School

Lol, don't tempt me :playful:

I'm keeping myself busy by planting trees along the river, the odd boozey night, and painting my dunny room this ridiculously bright orange colour.

[The Demon Lord]

I feel a slight bought of vomiting and sickness that will prevent me from going to work next week.....

[hoodieblanket]

* cough cough cough* .... don't think i can sit my exams on the 27th

[mycoolcar]

I am more excited for BF3 release than I was for the last Christmas.

[NZGramps]

dont forget "housework"

[hawkwindnz]

Aye? oh yeah..... housework. WTB cheap sexy maid!

[twiggels]

New multiplayer vid, with karkand!

Battlefield 3 - Multiplayer Gameplay Trailer - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRqfFfuVuNE&feature=player_embedded)

[The Demon Lord]

dont forget "housework"

I believe the technical term is 'missus Bribery to facilitate a blind eye being turned when holed away for the next month levelling up on BF3'

[philo-sofa]

Schweet.

[NZGramps]

pretty lucky at the moment while wife is studying i am told to play games so i don't distract her, life's hard sometimes

[SmiLinSniPeR]

7 days till our shop closes its doors for good
7 days till beef3
7 days till both wife and i will be gaming hard out

:D

[Flannel]

I bought my Wife Dance Central 2. Small price to pay for the amount of BF3 that will be consuming my time.

[Emrico1]

WTF is it with people all wanting websites all of a sudden!?

Don't you people know BF3 is out this week :sorrow:

[Scunner]

7 Days to play through as much Arkham City as possible.

Snap! Thanks to the fine dept of optometry for distracting my missus!

[Spork]

So I have the eight months leading up to BF3 off from work, then a week from release, I get a job.

Oh well, I didn't want to play with you guys anyway. :(

And luckily it's only a 9-2, 5 hour day for the first two weeks. =D

[mycoolcar]

What's your new job?

[=C=]

What's your new job?

Playing BF3 full-time? :D

[O-L-W-A-G]

I'll be studying the effects of the human body when pieces of lead are being fired through it

[playerB]

Sounds like a plan, count me in

[mycoolcar]

Hey! If your internet isn't connected you can phone yourself and complain... to yourself.

[Growler]

[playerB]

Hey! If your internet isn't connected you can phone yourself and complain... to yourself.
il totally xzibit myself.

[Spork]

What's your new job?

Just working in a department store selling TVs and other stuffs.

EDIT: I also found out today that I don't start till the Monday after release. Hells yea!

[RightHandOnly]

I have TOLD the GF.....as I have thursday to thursday off......

Dont expect sentences
Dont expect that I will come to bed as I will nap when servers empty and game all nite when they full..
Dont expect housework to be done (as its my house thats an easy one).
I said this week is mine after that I will be back to normal....

[dirtyape]

^^ righthandonly - fitting name lol

[Machpants]

You guys n gals taking leave better hope we don't have the first 3 or 4 days with a complete server cluster fuck from EA with no MP working or working very poorly. If I was going to take leave I would delay it a week or 5 days to get the bugs (at least partially) ironed out.

GL you'll need it!

/schadenfreude & green-eyed-jealousy

[dirtyape]

taking leave for a game is dedication for sure, you'd be better off having a sicki

[Obble]

taking leave for a game is an addiction for sure, you'd be better off having a sicki

ftfy

[NZGramps]

should be all good US gets game 25th so by the time we get it all the niggles should be ironed out

[Flannel]

Just thought i would point out, 5 SLEEPS.

[Growler]

I heard they had to delay servers going live till the 29th, only be able to play single player and co-op.

[NZGramps]

single player and co-op.

I'd hit that

[Growler]

I am looking forward to co-op! Especially since you can get unlocks for MP through it

[broncos]

move house sunday, watch game sunday night, recover monday hope to have net connected, have a mid afternoon nap in anticipation of midnight pickup and game from wed 1am to next monday.My net better be up before yrs...waiting a week.

Lolz Growler, Will be alot more than that. Just built my new rig today at work. So new rig + bf3 = raw lil nub :P

[EuphoricBliss]

5 more sleeps (winning!)

@ people doubting servers stability on launch... Be positive, the BETA went well they stressed thoroughly that they were primarily testing the back end for a stable launch.

[[∞]MadMike]

^^ this.. dont put a negative vibe into the system before the system is even up...

[bigROBOTbill]

It will all be lovely.
It's actually quite nice having something on the horizon to look forward to, specially after the Beta (yes it deserves a capitol B) we know it will be hot!

And there is time to get my machine sli'd and ready to rip, many thanks to philo-sofa for the sage advice!

[Growler]

113 faps

I've already done the lawns and a few odds & ends outside, trying to keep myself occupied.

EDIT: Wait, is an Arboretum (sounds like a pirate with a sore stomach) a green house type thing?
