The time has finally come. After seeing the game at a couple of E3s and watching thing progress steadily for a couple years, Pandemic's truly awesome alien invasion sandbox Destroy All Humans! is finally upon us. We've already gushed about the game and linked to it a couple times in past stories, but it bears mentioning that the limited time we had with the game in our hands-on preview actually makes for some good reading, so do it! And now, lots of quotes from the people actually involved with the game:

"The advance praise for Destroy All Humans! is especially gratifying because of THQ's increased commitment to publishing original gaming properties," beamed THQ Senior VP of Worldwide Marketing Peter Dille. "Destroy All Humans! is a prime example of our ongoing commitment to deliver fresh themes, innovative game play and original content to all gamers."

"We had so much fun making this game," adds Pandemic President Josh Resnick. "In between blowing up whole blocks of buildings and buzzing around in our flying saucers zapping everything in sight, we were probing cows, discovering the secret lusts of 1950s housewives, and laughing our heads off."

The game is awesome. You need to buy it. Luckily, now you can. Hooraaaaaay!
