Another release date change? groan!

[Brynster]

AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH. I've pre-ordered from gameplay.co.uk. They put the release date back to 26th Nov a week or so ago. Every link on that site says 26th except..... the green xbox link at the top of the page (not the one on the LHS) takes you to a page that says 19th Nov. I reckon this is new. It's a banner under "Gameplay recommends" It cycles between Halo 2, Mortal Kombat and PES 4. Refresh the page to cycle through. To confuse things the link it tells you to follow then takes you to a page that says 26th but nevertheless we live in hope!

simplygames are at it again, or are simply stupid, got this at 5.22pm today:

"Dear Sir

We are currently updating the site.

The release date has moved to the 19th so you should receive you game on r around this date

Regards

Customer Support"


somebody shoot me, I cant take anymore!!!!!!

 

[Beckham77]

This is fucking nuts! How hard can it be to set at releasedate?? I'ts totally mad....

 

[javuvu]

another bit of news chaps, amazon have also changed their release date back to the 19th, simplygames could be right, things are looking up.

 

[Mike69]

simply games say 26th of November

 

[Beckham77]

Just contacted at shop here in Denmark and they said the 26th.... Gonna try a few over the next couple of days though. I hope the situation here maybe a little like in the UK, where it seems some are getting it on the 19th and som on the 26th.

mike read the thread b4 posting! simplygames have said to me and others its gonna be out on fri 3 times now this week.

Hey people we hve it lredy where i m, in dubi. Sorry but my pc is messed up, i cnt type the first letter of the lphbet. So i hope u understnd

 

[javuvu]

Right, though we're being given all this conflicting information ive decided im gonna gamble and take next friday off work. No doubt a few retailers will be having the game in this week and a few places (especially smaller shops etc) will probably be selling early, probably this friday if they have it. Though Id bet in the end even if the big boys (i.e. amazon & simply games) have the stock in b4 this friday that they'll still stick to the official release date.

Oh and heres a question, if anyones ordered from amazon, can u state whether the orders been shipped yet for the supposed 19th delivery?

 

[netbulger]

I've had a lovely personal email from a Lyndsay Shaw at simplygames just to clear up the confusion in release dates, and she says it's definately 26th november.

 

[jimmyczz]

My account at amazon says expected delivery on 20th, which sounds like dispatch on the 19th.

 

[t1000v2.0]

Jimmy, then its possible amazon have it. Listen, this may give some hope. As I have recived MK deception today, from play they dispatched it yesterday, and the game isnt officially out on friday. So its possible some of us will get pes4 early.

 

[Rangers_FC]

if uz just bought it on ps2 u could get it just now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[javuvu]

yup got that too, simply games and amazon are just having a laugh. My guess is they have em in stock now so thought they have em out for friday, but will infact have to stick to the 26th release date. Thinki the only place people will find it early is if small outlets have it in stock this week and are willing to sell em. Really need to sort their communication out, is all over the place. Gonna book the 26th off work, final. Though if anyone has any shipping confirmations from amazon etc for this fri, let us know. Out.

 

[javuvu]

so play have definately said they have dispatched an order of yours early and amazon has said pes will be with u on sat? This is quite promising if correct, cos no doubt other retailers will have the game for friday also, so have a good chance of picking it up somewhere.

 

[t1000v2.0]

Well I am tempted to duck into GAME, oxford street, as I am just round the corner from work. If i leave early enough, I'll try and ask someone inside, preferably a manager on duty or something, as the sales assistants arent always clued up enough.

 

[Beckham77]

So anything new?? Anybody had their orders dispatched today?? Cause here in Denmark it looks certain that it won't be available until the 26th and if they are shipping it early from some of the UK onlineshops, i would be tempted to order it from there and then have early next week.

 

[SOLO21]

I've got contacts at both Konami Europe and XBOX Europe - and they both tell me it's out tomorrow (19th).

[Beckham77]

Where in Europe is that then? Cause over the last couple of days i have spoken to Gameplay.com and a few shops here in Denmark and they all have the game listed to be released on the 26th.
