Christmas? Seriously? That's a bit later than I was hoping for.

That actually works for me as my final thesis presentation will be a few days before that and I should be waking up just in time to click download.

It sucks for me. The last couple years I was able to get the time between xmas and new years off, but not this year. Looks like I'll have to schedule some time off in early Jan.

Well crap....i was really hoping for a Thanksgiving release. My boys and I are going skiing the week of Christmas but maybe with the pre-order early play i will get in game before we leave.

Works for me, I can still finish every game on my list before then. Even Elder Scrolls 5. Then cancel gamefly and probably even netflix, since I won't be using them anymore.

I'm off for a week so I can basically play every night other than Christmas Day and Boxing day from 8-midnight! Awesome time to release it!

No, it's the day in the middle of winter that Canada legalizes spousal abuse.

ROFL. It's our equivalent of Black Friday, except the main difference is that we're generally too polite to line up at rediculous times of the night outside of stores, freeze our asses off and push and shove eachother in hopes of getting a deal on a new plasma TV for our respective igloos.

You barbarians don't have Boxing Day?????

Jeez.

No wonder your empire is crumbling!

PS. I refuse to go Boxing Day shopping. No deal is worth the lineups.

Not after we demonstrate the power of this station. In a way,
you have determined the choice of the province that'll be destroyed
first. Since you are reluctant to provide us with the location of the
Rebel base, I have chosen to test this station's destructive power...
on your home province of Alberta.

No! Alberta is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can't possibly...

You would prefer another target? A military target? Then name the Province!

I grow tired of asking this. So it'll be the last time. Where is the Rebel base?

Newfoundland. The Rebel base is on Newfoundland. I mean, Labrador. Yeah. Labrador.

Labrador is too remote to make an effective demonstration - but don't worry; we will deal with your rebel friends soon enough.
