    Pretty much this for me too. Got an email a couple days ago from Amazon GCU saying my $10 cert from Destiny pre-order is ready to spend. That makes this a no brainer for me.

      Re: Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor

      Reviews are looking promising for this game. Basically calling it an Assassin's Creed style game with LotR drapings. That's fine by me.

        The combat reminds me of Batman with how fluid it is and how you can manage the mobs or approach with a stealth strategy. The death/notoriety system is pretty damn cool to me as well as the "pawn/spy" system.

        I'd like to hold off until I can catch a good buy on it especially with 2K coming out next week.

          Yeah, this game came out of left field for me. Wasn't even remotely close to being on my radar until I read the Joystick review. With so few quality single player games for PS4 this one's a no-brainer.

            I've not read any of the reviews, but seeing the scores cements this for me. I can't remember the last 9.5 or 9.3 single player game that I played. That's awesome.

              Xbox one version is 720 and 30 fps and PS4 is 1080p and locked at 60 fps?

                What I like about this game is that it's only an XB1, PS4, & PC release. That alone shows promise....

                    Hoping to pick this game up at Redbox. Try it before I buy it.

                      I told myself after I bought Destiny and didn't care for it that I would be Redboxing first, but I'll be picking this up tomorrow. I just never learn lol.

                        Used some reward zone certificates and my GCU membership to get this for $27.99 and I can't wait to play it.

                          Was watching the Season Pass video for this game and I saw a note at the end of it that said if you register on the game's site for a WBPlay/WBID account and log into it within the game you'll unlock the Orc Hunter Rune. I registered and the email I got back confirmed that the rune unlocks when I log in within the game.

                            My only fear is the game will get repetitive....
                            Seems like there's at least some depth as far as infiltrating the Orcs hierarchy

                            Just don't know yet.

                              ^^^^^^^^^^^ This...

                              My thoughts exactly...I'm gonna pass - I think it may a bit too repetitive for me as well.

                              I watched the 3hr gameplay vid last night in preparation for this release and my concern is that it has a similar feel to the Assassin Creed franchise (which I'm not a fan of, but again, only my opinion... - which concerns me...it's worth a RedBox purchase though, imo.
