Have you pre-ordered yet?

[Chris]

Sooo, have you guys pre-ordered your copys yet? Im planning on ordering mine online from game in october, because last year I got mw2 early. :D

When and where are you guys ordering from? :D

[Moh]

I'll preorder mine in Early October.

Are any of them doing carrier deliverys?

[dbgtz]

i dunno if any are doing other ppls, game might again if they get large orders
WOO game have stocked the hardened so i am going to go for them now, but I previously preordered with game :L

[Moh]

I wonder if they got complaints since a lot of people got it the day before?

[Josh]

I'll prob preorder it in October; when I have money.

[Devestation]

Pre ordered it, £44 :)

[dbgtz]

I wonder if they got complaints since a lot of people got it the day before?

considerign there were shops that handed it out weeks before and loads of copies got out already, I doubt it.

Prestige edition from GAME. Like £130?

[Oleh]

Preordered prestige edition £130 in august

[Chris]

Prestige edition is all to tempting but I must resist!

Last year I used parcel force for my delivery because game said it would be free due to the large amount of demand, but it ended up costing 2 quid more because they made a "mistake". Was worth the 2 quid anyway. :p

[Oleh]

Did you get it on the day?

[Moh]

considerign there were shops that handed it out weeks before and loads of copies got out already, I doubt it.
A reason for them to complain about copies getting out early :P

[Chris]

Did you get it on the day?

A day early. :D

Thats why Im gonna be using them again this year. :D

[Nathaaaan]

Pre-ordered the regular edition from GAME in June. Was going to get the Hardened edition (sorry but the Prestige edition seems too childish for me) but I just bought an X41 so only regular for me x_x

[Josh]

I would have bought presige edition; but the remote control car doesn't blow up like the game... wasn't hard ass enough for me.

I don't see the point in buying a remote control car and a game. You can only do one at a time!

[Chris]

The car is just a novelty which will wear off after 5 minutes anyway. :p

am happy the prestige edition was already sold out, otherwise i'd have wasted 50€ on an RC car that i'd never use but somehow gets broken after a week

[Stephen]

[Misawa]

[Fez]

Ordered the Hardened Edition from Zavvi. Comes during my exams so I'll leave it just sitting there until they're over, at the weekend I think.

Thanks for that information.

[Gibs960]

No, but my sister works at Sainsburys so she's gonna get a copy for me and my brother on the day, 15% discount and it's cheap at Sainsburys anywayz :)

Big yellow sticker stops you from trading it in.

Embargo laws state you can sell it on eBay or otherwise after release though, they fetch quite a lot on there.

Only ever got one promo copy myself.

[Gibs960]

How much are they? Are they just normal price or like £20/£30 more?

[Misawa]

You don't pay for review copies. You get sent them in exchange for a write-up.

[Fez]

I think he means how much they sell for.

[Misawa]

I think he means how much they sell for.

Oh right. No idea, didn't realise you were allowed to sell them. I know I can't sell my film and TV review copies - unlike video games, 80% of them are just the discs and they're trackable. But then again I wouldn't want to.
