That is a very good question.
In truth I don't really know. I asked myself at the time and several
times afterwards but the answer was not forthcoming.
Maybe I wanted to find a game where the object was not necessarily to
get frightened or to kill things* </drool>. ;-)
Maybe I was just feeling altruistic and I had been entranced by the
enthusiasm of a colleague about the BBC micro, version.
I don't know. But if I wasted 100 GBP then I will put it down to
experience. And experience was never bought so cheaply. </quote>
But now I've bought in I will give it a go and I look forward to playing it.
* I do not understand why anyone would get enjoyment out of killing
things. Unless they want to tick the "Pervert" box. I can understand
people getting excited by being frightened. But I have died several
times in my life, And if it wasn't for the luck of the cat being alive
when the box opened. I wouldn't be here.
So I forego the adrenalin rush.

I'd have loved to, but the price tag had the last say in the matter, so
it's Beta for me, too.

And they are saying that there is an upgrade to Alpha but no discount as far as
I could see.

I bought Ni no Kuni for the PS3 at 21GB. Took 2 nights. :)
I bought Bioshock Infinite too. Lovely game, specially the setting and story.
I don't usually dig FPS mindless shooting spree...

You'll only see the discount when you proceed to checkout.

Rich kids. All I've got is a Cobra III, a kilocredit's worth of cargo
and a kilocredit after final release.
Will reveal my commander name then. POVers Interstellar Consortium?

Well, given the minuscule amount of damage that every other weapon causes...

In other news: I only just discovered that you can *change* which vigors
are equipped. Until now, it seemed that as soon as you pick up a new
one, you lose the ability to use the old one. Suffice it to say, Charge
isn't especially useful when you're on a balcony a mile away from where
the action's happening.
It turns out if you use Shock Jockey, the whole thing becomes
drastically easier.
