Any update from the guys using 365 Games (or any other site for that matter)? Be interested to see how they get on as I'll think about using someone else next year. The options looked limited with Planetaxel sadly going out of business.

Good to hear that you guys that have had delays are sorted....I thought it would be down to sheer volume as I know they had loads to do.

At the end of the day we will all still be getting it before the US release - which when you're a veteran at importing games is simply amazing....years ago I could wait weeks to get a UK supplier to get hold of a game then pay through the nose for it. (Days of PS1 and all that)

I'll have to wait until we can finally get high speed broadband in our area before I can even think about that (should be in the next few weeks though hopefully!). Do prefer a hard copy though.

Planetaxel got me the game 3 days early last year and I paid nothing for postage, so for the extra cost I'm not overly impressed. VG+ may very well be the best option now though, but we'll see how people using other sites get on.

Don't think there is a better way to get the game before US release date this year other than going with VG+ although there is a seller on ebay claiming they have a few copies they will send from within the UK tommorrow morning. I've gone with a different UK seller on ebay that always gets the game to me on release day.

I may consider going with VG+ next year although it was pointless for me to do so this year as i'm heading out of the country tommorrow until Tuesday morning. Hopefully the game will be waiting for me upon my return.

Looking at the flight tracker, the plane will be heading over central Scotland very soon. Wonder if I could email the pilot and ask him to throw my copy out somewhere over the M8.

We just about have touchdown (or should that be home-run) at East Midlands...now the unloading and getting through customs.

EDIT - Landed

We are down men, down like a hoe

Now, to see when it gets through customs and onto a regional transport vehicle to make its way to respective depots!

Quick question. I've usually pre-ordered but if I order today, when do you guys reckon I'll get my copy? I know it's usually 5-7 days or so.

If you ask for DHL shipping and they ship today/tomorrow you should get it on Monday. If you use normal Canadian Airmail it'll probably be midweek next week at the earliest.
