All I can say is what the hell! lol :o

Dear Rob Pears

We have have some important news regarding your GAME Exclusive Chris

Redfield Figurine, please read the below news bulletin for more information.

***Breaking News***

T-Virus outbreak at GAME.co.uk warehouse!

Official sources have reported that a T-Virus infection has engulfed a section

of the GAME.co.uk warehouse however they have confirmed that it has now

been contained.

It is suspected that the source of the contamination was the GAME Exclusive

Chris Redfield figurine that a limited number of Resident Evil 5 preorder

customers would be receiving.

Although the outbreak is yet to be naturalised, GAME.co.uk have confirmed

that all preorders for Resident Evil 5 will not be affected and will be

despatched uncontaminated in time for delivery on release day.

They have also confirmed that customers who were originally promised a

Chris Redfield figurine will still be receiving one, however the figurine will be

despatched separately at a slightly later date.

Initial reports suggest that a BSAA Team are already on site performing a

clean up operation, so customers can expect to receive their Chris Redfield

figurine by the end of next week.

GAME.co.uk has issued a public statement apologising for any

inconvenience caused.

Kind Regards,

I got that email too. My Chris model arrived this morning though so I was lucky (Y)

My 360 has red lighted though, not so lucky..

I've checked around and the best price for them seems to be ?125. Gameplay are selling a bundles for ?130, one with HAWX or another with Sega Megadrive collection. Not bad prices for two new games. Only trouble is, are they Jaspers or Falcons:/:/

You spotted any other deals Rob?

I'm about to make a few calls to GAME and Blockbuster to check for stock of Gears of War PC. I'll ask for any deals.

Nothing decent best deal was ?129.99 @ GAME instore with Sega MegaDrive UC. But you already have that/played it and it would probably only re-sell for about ?10! I'll keep my eyes peeled for ya mind. Which red lights 1, 2 or 3?

Blockbuster only stock Jasper arcades now, I'm pretty sure of that. They ALWAYS have a free game with an arcade too, when I got mine I got FIFA '09 for free (instead of Call of Duty: World at War).

If there's a BB near you Andy it's worth popping in and asking a few questions, they let me check the box to see if it was a jasper (Y)

How much did you pay Brad?

@ Rob, it started off with just freezes, then it wouldn't boot. Then I had artifacts and one light (bottom right while horizontal) and then eventually 3 lights (top left, bottom left & right).

The Zavvi code still works. Again, the only thing stopping me from ordering is we don't know if its a Jasper or not..:/

3 red lights will get you a free repair from microsoft! Or is it over 3 years old? Even so they may just do it for you? Or you could pay ?60 to have it fixed and a free 1 year warrenty; they will more than likely send you a brand new unit.

You won't beat that deal at Zavvi mind!

@Brad, thanks. I'll either do that or I will ask my mate in PC World to buy it with staff discount or last resort, buy from Zavvi.

Try that first :p Never miss a bargain :L

And btw, I sent of my xbox that had RROD and the warranty sticker was missing, they switched dvd drives and sent it back to me, without fixing the RROD (fair enough), but then I sent it back to them with the new warranty sticker that they slapped on there and they fixed it.

Win?

PC World staff discount is only 10% anyway. :[ So it's the same as Zavvi's offer.

But I guess it's better backed if you get it from a store that's actually in business. :p

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
    • It's good for recycling of course. But commence inflation of a second hand RAM bubble and price gouging on DDR 4 inventory in 3... 2... 1...
