"Simply Games" or "Gameplay" for early delivery?

    If I were to order Burnout 3 from one of these 2 fine purveyors of online goods, which would give me the greater chance of receiving my game earlier than the Friday 10 September release date?

    Opinions please....

    Simply have more of a reputation for delivering ridiculously early, AFAIK.

    Never used Gameplay though.

    Simply. Every time.

    I bet you'll have Burnout 3 by the middle of next week from them (here's hoping anyway!)

    Never used Simply, but Gameplay have never failed to get me a game the day before release.

    Having read the above posts though, I might start using Simply instead.

    Simply, definitely.

    Got Riddick way before release, and Black Arrow turned up a few days early as well. Prices are also about as competitive as the web gets.

    Er, Actually we've had a problem with the packaging on both Xbox AND Ps2...... You might have to wait a bit longer.

    Problem with the packaging? Is this because of the 2-disc format (one for the demo of NFSUII and one for the game itself?)
