Here's VideoGamer.com's own shameful gaming memories.

Tom Orry, Editorial Director - Silent Hill 4: The Room: y cant i leave room?

I've had a few "Durrr!" moments in video games over the years, but the one that sticks out the most is undoubtedly the opening of Silent Hill 4: The Room. You start off in an apartment, and you're able to wander about.

I'd put off playing Uncharted 3 for too long, so with The Last of Us on the horizon I dusted off my copy, installed four updates and set off on another Drake adventure. Well, I actually took part in some horrible scripted combat and wandered about as young Drake. I'm sure things will pick up, but I was pretty underwhelmed by the opening 30 minutes. Still, it looks very pretty.

Initial pre-orders for Rome 2 were six times higher than those of previous release Shogun 2, SEGA revealed, with the series managing to sell two million units during 2012 alone.

"With over two million Total War sales last year alone, without a major release, the strong start to ROME II's presales indicates a continuing and growing profile for the long-running series from UK studio Creative Assembly," said a SEGA spokesperson.

IGN noticed that the listing had been removed from the site earlier today, and cites a source "with intimate knowledge of the retailer" as saying GameStop "actively flicked a switch" to remove the game from its website, suggesting the delisting is not accidental.

The site also points out that it's "exceedingly rare" for GameStop to delist a game that has previously featured on the cover title of sister magazine Game Informer.

Other retailers, however, still seem to be accepting pre-orders. GAME still carries a tentative 2013 release date for the title.
