The game is huge for me when it puts SILENT HILL's top spot in question.

I hope it's all you want it to be and more.

I'm anticipating this game a great deal, but it's a future purchase for me. No game, no matter how good, is worth $130. Not for a family man anyway. Once I get to pay the same price (probably in 6 month's time ~$90) as you'll be paying on day 1 then I'll buy it. God of War III really tempted me into that $130 purchase but I've resisted that game too.

While I wait I'll be picking up R&C, Dragon Age, Uncharted 2, importing Demon's Souls and grabbing one or 2 other 2009 titles to get me through. Plenty to get on with there.

I deliberately didn't download the demo. I watched too many promotional videos and felt I was seeing too much of the game, I placed myself on a Heavy Rain media/demo ban so that when I do get it it will be new and fresh. As long as your review isn't spoiler laden I'll be looking forward to reading your impressions.
