    ive got 2 copies on order..

    have had since early august.

    my amazon order is saying "being despatched on the 11th, estimated delivery of 12th-13th"

    and the order with game that i have looks like its not going to get here for tomorrow as i wouldve had a "your order has been despatched" email.

    looks like thursday then for game, and saturday for amazon.

    and yes, i know ive got 2 copies on order, but ive got 2 xboxes

    :p

    If I pre-order one now from SG what are the chances they'll have one in stock and I'll get it before the weekend?

    Probably the copies of GTA:SA that were received early has caused everyone to be more careful this time around.

    I'm glad I got GTA nice and early, not too bothered if I get Halo2 on release day.

    As long as it arrives on or before Friday I'll be happy. Royal Mail will just take it back to the warehouse if it comes on Thursday; I'll be on the first bus that gets into Morecambe at 9AM on Friday. Will probably end up getting my Zelda-SP as well. :D

    OMFG!!!

    i ordered mine way back in august, again for the LE.

    are you sure you got a "order despatched" email and not a "GAME: Update on your Preorder:" email, with the text below: ?

    "I am delighted to let you know that your Preorder for Halo 2 Limited Collector's Edition will be with you shortly. The order will be despatched by your chosen delivery method in time to reach you for the morning of release.

    By using the GAME 1st To Play Preorder Service you have ensured that you will be among the first people to receive Halo 2 Limited Collector's Edition, and we are confident that you will be happy with the order, our service and our speedy delivery!"


    These are standard emails sent at the beginning of the week for a game thats due at the end of the week...

    Just spoke to one of the foxy chicks at Simply and ordered my Halo 2 LE. I thought that I had secured my order by charming the pants off of her... it turns out that they have had their allocation increased and have number left in stock - god bless 'em!

    She's also assured me that I should get it on Thursday...

    i got all excited then as well. just checked my email to make sure it hadnt appeared, looks like a thursday morning then, hoping that i get the email tomorrow. i guess game are being a bit lame after the GTASA saga.



    the wait is just getting too much to bear :p

    since seeing it at gamestars live, and the 2 months to this thursday, its like the longest 2 months ive ever known in my life...

    it sucks, ive got some american friends on XBL, and i just saw an MSN alert pop up..... "so and so is playing halo2"

    Unfortunately, I've double booked Thurdsay night with a boys night out on the lagers and darts. Not that that's really unfortunate, but you know what I mean.

    Halo 2 will have to wait 'til Friday - doh!

    . . . . until I stumble in hammered, and then insist on firing up the 'box, that is.

    No BINKY NO! You dont wait until some shitty carling game is over when the Almighty is waiting for you! You go home and attend to her STRAIGHT away! If the carling cup is important to you then your team are no hopers just like mine (man utd) therefore you have no need to watch them. It will only make you depressed.

    Now you go home and You play with the Almighty or reap the consequnces for an eternity!

    WELL.

    You know.

    I jus' wanted to watch the Spurs game. Thieving bastards put all games on Sky2 just to get you to up your subscription. Then, of course, once you HAVE Sky2 they move the good matches to Prem' Plus. So you pay again.

    C..ts.

    Nope. Default is 1 and 3.

    NOT 2.

    You pay extra for 2.

    Then you have to pay again for Prem Plus.

    So, lets look at that, shall we.

    TV Licence fee then...Sky 1-3 to avoid default 10 quid subs charge of a tenner. Then a bit more for Sky2. Then a bit more for Prem' Plus.

    Aha.

    You can fuck off with that. Cheeky cunts. I'll put on 5Live ta.
