    When the game has left Simply it disappears from your current orders.

    The Royal Mail collects from different customers at different times, I wouldn't worry.

    As is mine.

    I'm sure in the past orders just disappear, maybe that happens the following day? I dunno but my copy is on its way at least. :-D

    Just got email from SG saying it is dispatched... So lets see when it arrives? Probably Friday or Monday. Def isn't going to get here tomorrow, which is a shame.

    But luckily I'm too busy on GTA: SA to care!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... Much.

    You think? Whereabouts are you? I'm banking on it getting here tomorrow.

    Maybe I'll come into work anyway if it doesn't arrive, and see if I can fiddle swapping my day off for friday :o\

    I've had all my Simply stuff arrive the day after it was dispatched so I should get mine tomorrow.

    You'll need 30% at their prices ;-)
    Yeah, strangest thing is, with the 30% discount it generally matches online prices (for full price stuff, at least)... the main advantage being, I don't need to rely on the vagaries of the post system!

    :-P

    Not trying to be negative DR Haggard, It's just I'm based In Oxford, and the last thing I ordered didn't turn up until the tuesday after the release day!

    So I'm not getting my hopes up. That's all.

    I'm sure they have put yours on super-duper delivery, so will be with you tomorrow!! ;)

    aye, mine's been dispatched too now. a tad too late i reckon, and if it doesn't get here tomorrow morning, I'll still buy my games elsewhere in the future.

    Just been to every game store in Guildford and none of the buggers will seel it even though most of them had umpteen copies sitting on their counters.

    And to top off all the sweat and silly looks from non-plussed woolworths/whsmiths/argos female staff my order with SG is still...."in dispatch"


    Oh no, the lovely people in SG have now moved it to dispatch - oh lordy it better get here tomorrow...

    anybody heard of the wildcat postal strikes that are kicking off? Something to do with staff getting the sack for opening mail. There was a C4 documentary about this a while back but I missed it.

    No one in Oxfordshire would notice.

    /hopes SG remember they said they were sending Halo2:LE via courier rather than the postie after the last three packages went 'missing' en route.

    Another Wednesday delivery here from Gameplay. They are the way to go. Had a few hours last night. Heh. Not many people on the on-line servers mind. Hope you guys get your copies.

    I'm sitting at home and the postman hasn't been yet. It doesn't matter anymore though, I caved last night and found the only local(ish) shop that was doing a midnight opening and popped over there to join in the fun. And, er...buy a copy.

    So now I'll have two copies.

    Idiot.

    Still, I played some last night and it's a bit bloomin good. Awesome in fact. I need more time with it to take everything in.

    The multiplayer is in a different league to anything else done on Live so far. It is unbelievable.
