Play.com sent COD4 a day early for me.

It might happen... if they send it on the Friday or early Saturday we're in with a shot.

A shop here which will remain nameless has already promised people it early but will be charging ?75 - ?100 per copy depending on how well they know you. I hasten to add it's an independent and not a big retail store. It sickens me thought that they will charge that much for something, yes I know people will pay it, but I just feel it is wron:(:(

FYI he says it wil be just for the normal version, not the limited edition.

ya but if it is an independent store and not part of a retail chain, then they wont care that they wont be getting any big games in future, especially when they could preorder the games themselves to put on sale the next day

"Take2 have sent a street date agreement to online retailers to sign which means they cannot ship GTA IV until Monday next week (April 28), this also includes an embargo on staff getting copies either paid for or free."

They just need to package them earlier due to the demand, since you usually package them all the day they need to be sent out.

Heh it aint stopping my mate from getting it early at his work :p

does play still have any copies left?

I preordered it the other day, and I couldnt see anything anywhere saying that they were out of stock...

EDIT: although now their website says out of stock, so im guessing i was in luck when i bought it

just keep an eye in your account for if it goes to packing or awaiting stock etc.. :) happend to me before with a wii from play. people just buy too damn quick on there haha :D!

Psy (owner of the site in my sig) just got back from a tour of NYC. He spoke to a Rockstar employee and found out that there won't be ANY DLC for the PS3 version, hidden packages are in the form of pigeons that you have to kill, and you can't kill Ricky Gervais. Now he's off to the Rockstar penthouse for a 12 hour GTA4 marathon with the rest of the fansite admins.

He's going to be in the Comedy Clubs. I personally hate him, and a lot of us were wondering if you could kill him onstage, but you can't :(

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By Shun Tao · Posted

      I do not remember anything happening to Apple and Google for bribing people not to make Apps for Windows Phone. Edge barley has a foot print to matter. If the other browser companies want more of the Pie, they need to do better. I use Brave on all my personal device. However in industry, Edge of default, as we can manage it easier with MS tools.

      On the one hand, it shouldn't be difficult. You buy a computer, you decide what OS you want, which browser etc. Simple enough. But that's the techie side of things. My sister, my mother, wouldn't bother with such a thought. And I'm pretty sure that if you presented a window asking them what to pick they would say, "I don't care! I just want to access my Email!"

      Anyone who expects MS to play fair is a complete idiot.
