Where would be the best place to pre-order from?

I've not ordered GTA IV yet and I think now would be the right time to do so.

 

I need a store (online store) that I can pre-order GTA IV from that will guarantee that the game will arrive at my house on the 29th (or earlier for that matter, no later).

 

Do you have any suggestions?

 

My initial thought was play.com but I have heard that they have had pre-order problems in the past.

 

Thanks.

 

EDIT: For PS3 by the way.

Gamestation FTW.

 

Or Play.com (but dont expect it on release day, I ordered San Andreas from play and didnt get it until 5 days later!)

Any places other than Amazon?

why?

Because it comes with Super Saver Delivery or some sh*t like that, which means you won't get it on the day.

 

 

Thats why its so cheap.

HMV have an offer with 1000 xbox points if you have an xbox you may be interested. << not sure whether they are good for same day delivery though. anybody pre-ordered from them before? btw im in the same situation as you so i would like to know too

 

EDIT: i just noticed you want it for ps3 so ignore half of my of my post lol

I'm also looking for somewhere to pre-order.

 

If you go into HMV, Game, or wherever, you can get one reserved for you so you can just go in and pick it up. But I'll do it online, so I don't have to go anywhere. I'm too lazy.

I did have it ordered with Play a long long long time ago. But i ordered mine with Game at the end of 07 smile.gif

 

The offer of the points and gamerpics wasn't being offered then.

 

I should get it on the 28th aswell. Ive pre-ordered quite a few games with game and always had them a day before official release.

you still get the points.. i looked on the website and it says it applies to everyone who pre-ordered.. id check it out though as there is a slight chance i may have misread but i am pretty sure though

I second that, I've had a few games like 1-3 days early and never a single problem with the order, I changed mine from Amazon 'cause I've had a few let downs from them.

it's best to go with game. i pre-ordered with hmv but they wasn't gonna despatch it til the day after release. which means you mite not get til 2-3rd of may. when i went on the website for game, they said it'll be despatched ready to be delivered on release day. i've now pre-ordered with game.i'll get it on release day if not earlier and don't even have to leave home either. so game is the place to go.

if you go to gamestations website site, they've stopped taking orders for the standard gta4 game due to demand being so great. they've only got special editions left.

I think the main question you need to ask is - do you want it on release day or not?

 

Game guarantee delivery for release day - although it costs an extra £5 in p&p.

 

My experience of Play is that you'll get it the day after

 

Amazon, I'm not so sure about, I think you may be able to pay extra to have it on time - although I'm not sure on that one.

 

I've gone with Game. I don't mind paying a bit extra to save the hassle of trudging into town to pick a copy up, and this way it'll be there waiting for me when I get home from work.
