2 days old. Won it in the Stuff comp. Beaten it as I've had couple days off work sick.

Really great game. Story is awesome, weapons are fantastic and non regen health is old school gaming done to perfection.

No manual for some reason?

Have you used it? Or is it brand new?

No. It is brand new. It's been used. So it's not "brand new and unused" Still brand new.

Get a bike at Christmas, take it for a spin in the morning, it's still brand new at night isn't it.

Er, no. Brand new = unused.

Yeah. It doesn't. Unused means unused. Brand new means recently purchased. Unused/unopened means unused.

Not sure where you went to school, but you have NO chance of convincing anyone who HAS been to school, that you are right about that.

Your item may be in BRAND new CONDITION, but it is NOT brand new!

You're talking about the similar term "newish" I think!

"As new, only played once" would be best description probably.
