You're not alone they cancelled my Collectors Ed of Dragon Age Origins yesterday too as I had no funds on my card, the game wasn't supposed to be out for another week so I was going to put the money in on Monday morning :(

I just checked my card account online and they tried to take the money on Thursday :(

i think at the moment its more of a precaution due to the postal strike and they try and process the orders asap to make sure that customers have their products by the release date. this weeks strikes are due to be friday and saturday so maybe thats why? not too sure though.

Tekken 6 ?34.73

Apparently Modern Warfare 2 is going to be ?26 instore in Sainsburys on Tuesday!

Annoyingly I only found this out after my copy had been dispatched from Shopto.

So I might be a scumbag on Tuesday and go and buy three copies to sell to Cex, to make up the diffence and a bit of profit. And grab a couple of bottle of JD that they have on offer for ?14 as well. lol

?30 at Morrisons and ?32 at Tesco too I believe.

apparently its 1 per customer..... so you'd have to go in 3 times :p

That's my plan, I have to get my mate a copy so I can only buy and sell 2 copies :( if he had money for his own copy then I could have sold another one :p

And would have actually made a profit. Hmph.

If you can't be arsed to go to one of the supermarkets tonight to pick up Modern Warfare 2, then pre-order it at Coolshop for ?26!

Thanks to Pheee for telling me about it, but I'm still gonna go and get it tonight.

EDIT: Hmm, I just tried the link I posted and it says product not found. Try this bit.ly link: http://bit.ly/e2BTl That one works fine for me, yet it links to the exact same page.

EDIT 2: Looks like the site is being hammered to hell, so you might face a long wait looking around there.

I'm still going to Sainsburys with my dad anyway. My brother's the one that wants the game, so we either get it tonight at one of the supermarkets, or he throws a massive tantrum even bigger than the time when FIFA 10 didn't show up on release day due to the postal strike! He's 16, BTW. :p

Yeah sites getting raped.

Got my order in though :shiftyninja:: Royal mail free delivery, I am skint:pp

It'll be worth it i've got my disguises all planned out, and a shaver handy to lose the beard for the second pop in. lol

To be honest it shouldn't be a problem, just go to three different tills! Worth it for the profit, the shopto one is deffo getting returned unopened for a refund, especially seeing as they told me on the phone earlier that they told UK Mail not to deliver till 2morra. When they asked why I said because I can get it for ?17 cheaper, and he said but we deliver on time on release day to your door. The guy was an idiot! Because yeah I'm really going to pay a premium of ?17 for that? go figure you moron!

^

The games stores are going to be up in arms again @ the Supermarkets.

Either way, I'm enjoying sticking it to IW/Activision for the god awful RRP (Yes I realise the irony in the fact I've still bought their game :rofl:).

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
