    Default Blood Bowl PC Game!

    So
    1. Who is going to get it?
    2. Any thoughts on the rules?
    3. Opinions on game play?

    I've got it and I love it.

    I'm a long time Blood Bowl player and I've been waiting on something like this for awhile. Like every new game, there a few bugs/glitches/inconsistencies but the staff at Cyanide have already released at least 6 patches for the game so far. So atleast they are committed to making the game better.

    I think for some people, the price tag ($50) may seem a tad bit excessive given that the game lacks polish, but for fans of the game, it's easily overlooked.

    The rules are about 99.9% accurate for Living Rule Book 5, so anyone familiar with the game will catch on rather quickly. It's just a matter of adjusting the camera views and getting the controls down properly. Also, the game doesn't have every playable race yet. Which just makes for a good business model for them so they can release add-ons later down the road.

    I don't believe there is a demo available yet which is a shame because I think a lot of people would like to give it a try and see how it stacks up but I would encourage anyone out there that's thinking about it to go ahead and download it.

    If there's enough interest in these forums we should set up a BoLS private league or something. Anyone up for that?

    I'm going to be picking it up next paycheck in two weeks and from what I've played on the demo I found it is really worth it!

    Ah so there is a demo? I hadn't bothered to check. Is the demo for the PC game? If so, where did you find it?

    I believe he was referring to the Beta which is now closed.



    Although I could be wrong.

    Good to hear the game plays well - Am I right in thinking that there will be a PSP version released soon?

    I have it and, yep it's awesome.

    I'm already in the Worlds End Radio league and would love to join a BoLS league or any other league.
    My coach name is Warpsword so if anyone wants a game then just challenge me.

    I'm really enjoying it. It's much better against human players I think. If you want to, just give me a "call" online, my trainer name shockingly is "ChaosPhoenix"
