June 20th to 26th

Section: 

It feels like it's been a long time since we've had a PC game to crow about. Of all places it has to come from Electronic Arts, a company some have boycotted thanks to their big business moves. Really, if you want to stick it to them and not miss out on the fun I suggest you buy the game used. We haven't really had a title to rally around since Joint Ops so I'm really looking forward to the opportunity to maintain a solid gaming schedule with you lugs again. If you didn't guess, Battlefield 2 is the Game of the Week and it ships Tuesday for $49.99. We will of course have an official Gamers With Jobs server, keep tabs on the "Upcoming Events" panel on the left for all the info when we go live!

I cant stop playing bf2 empty server or not! I must practice to be the very best!

**edit
We got destroy all humans on saturday and I must say that it is really solid!

An expansion for RCT3 is tempting, but I don't know how much it's going to introduce. Also, Hostage was actually a surprisingly good flick.

Conker and BF2 this week?

Damn I wish I had time to play

Lets get Destroy all humans commercials off the TV can we?

I'm with you Pyro. The GF practically demanded that I buy Destroy All Humans last night, but failed to instruct me as to how to set aside a near 80-hour work week in order to play it. Hmm ... Maybe sex will have to get bumped.

Good to hear that Destroy All Humans is looking good. It's certainly a concept that sounds like it could be pretty entertaining! Off to gamefly!

Cool, nothing for me this week!

...not that I have any money in the first place.

I pre-orderX0red BF2 via GoGamer.com's link here at GWJ. Click it, you mongrels!!

IGN have given Battlefield 2 an 8.9.

Adjusting for IGN stupidity factor and bloat-hype tangents... I'd say it's about an 8.4.
Which is probably about right. As it does play like Flashpoint's younger but dim witted brother.

Sir, the lynching mob will be arriving at your residense shortly, sir.

Lord, that seems so impeccably accurate.

Amazon just emailed me that my preorder shipped out today... overnight shipping so I should have this tommorow

For those near a Fry's, it goes on sale Wenesday afternoon for $39.99.

Tell me again why I bother to preorder from EBGames (back in January)?

I am done with preorders, darn it all. Done.

Wait, Destroy All Humans is for the PS2! Damn it. More money gone! After this I plan on not buying anything for the PS2 or my PC (with the exceptions of Soul Caliber 3 and KOTOR).

You pre-ordered because you wanted to support your favorite upcoming game and have a garunteed copy...also I mean I really hate for the inner sales man to come out but eb also you can trade in for battlefield or even trade up from the original battlefield games, also the associates at my local fry's are so dimwitted that I ask the stockers before I ask the associates...

Well, I know that BF2 has sucked the Ducki in...all I hear from his office is the sounds of gunfire and the periodic "Damn!".

Edit to add: Miss C2 was a bit of a disappointment, no?

and have a garunteed copy...

This part boggles my mind. It's not like a limited edition of only 500 special new concept cars or something.
It's not a buffalo nickel. It's a video game, a brand new one, and I can pretty much guarantee even folks without preorders will be able to get one. Possibly BEFORE those that do have preorders.

As demonstrated by those of us who picked up the game in stores on Tuesday, when most people with preorders had to wait until Wednesday...
