Pardon Anonymous? You have this game? If you do it's only for mobile. I'm sick of people saying they have the console game when it's not out! No one here has realatives working for Sierra and if they did they still wouldn't be getting advanced copies.

lol, I can just see this. Every day someone, no matter who, is going to comment each day about how many days left... like a auto posing calender, LOL. Like today "Only 20/21 days left!"
next day... "hay, only 20/19 days left!" and so on still the very last second.... that's a lot of comment space that is going to add up. Lol, not like we can't read it on the front page, guys. smilie
