It is... 29th to be exact.

Is this thread for released titles only?

[Guest]

Woolworths are doing GTA 4 special edition for ?60 which is ?10 off most places and it is free delivery. I dunno what their delivery times are like but seeing as the game is released on a Tuesday, then most places won't actually post the game until the Monday.

Is that offer online only?

Couldn't edit my original post, I misread the original post about GTA4, I read it as "released on tuesday" not "on a tuesday". I'll have to stop speed reading posts :)

Not that it matters, HMV have a much better deal.

http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/navigate.do?ct...mp;pPageID=1962

Special edition for the same ?60 price, free delivery AND 1000 Microsoft points!

You'll also get 10% off if you're a student, so special edition + 1000 points for ?54 (or regular edition + 1000 points for ?40 - 36 if you're a student).

Quote from HMV WebsiteWhat if I pre-order the Special Edition of GTA IV?/b>

If you pre-order the Special Edition of GTA IV on Xbox 360, you?ll only be receiving the money-off vouchers, not the 1000 Xbox LIVE points. The points are only eligible to those pre-ordering the Standard Edition version on Xbox 360.

[Kushan]

Oh ****, I missed that. My bad! Still, it's not a bad deal for either version.

[Guest]

Awesome deal. I have some vouchers for HMV too, so I'm going to get myself the regular game for ?35, with 1000 MS points:DD

[Guest]

I've read some horror stories regarding HMV pre-orders, so I'm going to give that a miss.

Does anyone know if there is a GAME.co.uk discount code in circulation?

[Lingwo]

The GTA woolworths offer is in store too.

Woolworths also are doing an offer on 360s

?200 and 3 free games (PGR 4, Fifa 08 and The Simpsons)

I can also confirm that it is a HDMI premium 360. I just went up there and got my brother one.

I think you might be right about HMV, I just got an email from them telling me that my preorder was cancelled because "they couldn't fix it". Apparently the problem they're referring to was in a previous email they sent that I never received, so I have absolutely no idea what the problem is. Well done, HMV!

[.KICK]

I pre-ordered Lost Odyssey from HMV, got it fine but the disc was faulty, took them 2 weeks to send out a new copy cause they are based in the Channel Islands and also the store and the online store are two different companies meaning you can;t just swap in the store .

HMV = Hopeless Morons with Videogames ... I only use them for music. Every order I have made that isn't audio related has been f00ked up in some way. The last one they sent my stuff to someone else was only when I queried why it hadn't arrived they realised the error.

Anyhoo back on topic, Asda are doing Bully for ?32.97 instore, which isnt to bad:))

The game should be RRP Of 29.99, anymore than that is too expensive cause its not a new game

[Sigurd]

Yeah HMV are really bad with Pre-Orders imo, I pre-ordered GoW off them and got it a week after the release date, and now i pre-ordered Rainbow 6 Vegas 2, and im still waiting so wont be getting that till Monday, if then.

[Guest]

I'll be pre-ordering with Gameplay I think then. ?34.99 (with discount code) plus 99p first class post.

It's also ?34.99 on Amazon, but P&P is a little more pricey.

True, but that's 2nd class postage. Doubt it'll arrive a day before release as it would with 99p 1st class.

[Lingwo]

Yeah super saver can sometimes be good and sometimes it is terrible.

I've got the special edition pre-ordered at Woolworths and selected store pick up. In the past when i've done pre-orders on the 360 and Wii consoles they arrived usually in the afternoon on release day.

Anybody know if GAME are any good with deliveries? Trustworthy?

[Lingwo]

Yeah game usually ship to get to you on release day or the day before.

GTA however is out on a tuesday so i doubt most places will send the game out until the monday, so you should get it on the tuesday.
