    That sucks, mine was dispatched friday and got it yesterday. Nothing bad about VG but PA delivered it for 20euros less and got it one day after US release date!

      Hope you guys who are still waiting get it soon. This years version is stellar!

      I know im 31 years old and perhaps I should have a better maturity level but this line by the commentator made me chuckle.

          You have to use a US PSN account to redeem the code and then play the game in your UK account if you want the trophies on that account. That's how I've done it anyway.

            Going back to 2k12 - just interested in seeing this, especially from the commentary point of view. The Show will always be my game, but curious about 2k12...just gone with normal delivery from VG+...should have ordered it days ago instead of waiting for PA to update me.
            I've just got a copy of 2K12 for the PC and to be honest the only thing that I'm impressed with is the commentary and presentation. Stick to the Show mate, I think 2K have given up this year! Don't get me wrong 2K12 plays OK in an arcade style way and they have improved the animations but it's hard to enjoy it once you have played the Show! That's just my opinion anyway.

              No go today. No work tomorrow either. Maybe I'll make a run into school tomorrow if I know it is here for sure.

                I feel for you mate, it happened to me last year that's why I paid for the DHL delivery from VG+ this year! It was terrible seeing everyone else playing the game!

                Fingers crossed you will get it tomorrow though.

                  Yep, the Show will always be number 1. I've not bought a 2K baseball game before but was impressed by the commentary and the presentation as you say....it's more of a purchase of curiosity rather than something that I'll be playing above the Show.

                  Anyhow, VG+ sent it out last night so it should be with me later next week I reckon.

                  But I agree with you, more a whim on my part to be honest.

                    Don't get me wrong you might really enjoy it, I like it but I can't help compare it to the Show, I've purchased it every year it's been available for PC and I always go back to the Show! LOL. At least they can't say I didn't try to like it!

                        If I may ask where did you manage to get a PC copy of 2K12 from? I haven't been able to find it anywhere for digital download in the UK, I know it's not in the class of The Show but I would like to pick it up for the PC simply so I have a baseball game to play while I can't use the PS3.

                            Thanks, just had a look but it says "Currently, this item is available only to customers located in the United States and who have a U.S. billing address."

                            Don't know if there is a way to get around that.

                              My niece sent it to me from the states. To be honest that's exactly why I always buy 2K baseball so I can play it when I can't play on my PS3! LOL

                                will OSFM be availble for download and work through usb install?

                                cause i wont be playing online, and those rosters are all i care about for offline play.

                                no need to redeem a code that i wont get any use from just in case down the line i might sell the game. (heresy i know, but who knows)
