bennisboy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 OKay well I got mine in before making this topic, but for those of you with a PS3 and not guaranteed a release day copy of IV, get over to www.game.uk.com now, they have a load of PS3 copies that have just become available to recieve on release day. I ordered mine, got the confirmation and then cancelled my order with play.com. Use the code "quidco" to get an extra £3 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay™ Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Using the business shipping will i still get it release day? Im thinking of canceling my amazon order, Please reply asap. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennisboy Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 A person on another forum pointed it out to me. Also I recommend ordering it ASAP as this news will probably spread quickly. I dont know about business delivery, I stuck with the normal one and I should be gettin it on the launch day @Jay I would recommend ordering it form GAME, then cancelling the amazon order when you get your confirmation, as I doubt you want any nasty mix ups that leave you stuck without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whetstone Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Where does it say that it will be delivered for release day ? Is there any other UK websites that will have preorders for ps3 GTA 4 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennisboy Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 wen do game take money out for ordering? is it straight away? cos iam not sure if i have the money in my bank account just yet? They take money out when they dispatch it I believe. @Whetstone, I do believe there are no other UK retailers still dispatching for release day if you havent yet ordered. It says it on the web page where you order the game "Despatched in time for delivery on release day." On the 360 product page it says they are takin no more pre-orders, in fact they have removed the 360 link now, so you cant order it for the 360, just the PS3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay™ Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Thanks! Just placed an order on GAME now, i hope i get the confirmation so i can cancel my amazon pre-order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick808 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I ordered with next-day delivery but then read on another thread that a Game employee says free delivery ones are sent on Sat and *might* arrive early but next-day delivery are sent Monday. So, barring a massive Royal Mail mess, you could get a free delivery one early but if you paid next-day you definitely won't get it early. I made another order with free delivery and once I got the confirmation email for that I cancelled the next-day delivery one. I doubt I'll get it Monday, but there's always a small chance.

Yeah I left it so late to order cos I only bought my PS3 less than a week ago. I promised myslef I wouldnt order IV cos of my uni exams, but then I figured its first year and doesnt count towards my degree so why not? Ordered it from play, but then today saw I could ge it release day, so I was like "hells yeah" and the rest... is history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshkinny Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 just completed the order and got the confirmation tracked it said its still preordered what are the chances of getting it on launch? do you think we definitly will? for 36.99 am not arguining if its a day late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't takin any more orders for the 360 version cos they didnt have the supply. I am guessing that as they are still advertising it for release day delivery, they are extremely sure we will get it on release day, providing there are no postal miix ups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
