CoolFunkMan Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Well, play.com still haven't shipped mt special edition yet and for some reason they've dropped the price of it to £40. Odd... Hope I get it on time though!
flameboy Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 Just had a despatched confirmation Email from Zavvi, hopin it in time for weekend! I will put money on it having not been despatched they have a habit of sending you them way early or even when they are out of stock.
LegoMan1031 Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Just decided to check my pre-order with shopto for the LE edition, it is now coming with a little figurine of a little sister! Wasnt there the other day! Can't complain with no price increase!
Chris the great Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 i ordered with game, so im exdpecting it on monday possibly saterday if im lucky. im trying to stay totaly unhyped for it, as recently hype has let me down alot.
Solo Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 I have zero excitement for this game, dunno why cos I loved the first. Unlike with ME2's universe I just don't feel the need to revisit rapture.
Jimbob Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Still working through the original at the moment, i'm hoping to get it done in time for the 2nd title. Also have the original Gears still to beat as well.
Shorty Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 I have zero excitement for this game, dunno why cos I loved the first. Unlike with ME2's universe I just don't feel the need to revisit rapture. I feel the same! I loved the first yet I'm in no hurry to get the second. I'll probably pick it up cheap at some point but it hasn't even occurred to me to pre-order.
Mundi Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 At least with the sequel I was hoping something would happen outside of Rapture and finding out that it's not has killed most of my excitement... Just gonna wait and see the reviews before I get excited.
CoolFunkMan Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) So yeah, I checked with play.com, they now have the LE in stock and it should be shipped today. However, according to the person I was talking to, they'll still charge me £70, even though my account says it's now £40, so I was advised to cancel my order and re-order it. WTF?!!! Thing is, this edition is going to be extremely limited and I'm realy worried about losing out on getting it. I'm sure they'd charge me £40, as they'd get into trouble for overcharging me, right? What do I do? EDIT: Cancelled it with play.com, ordered it from Zavvi instead. Fuck play! Edited February 4, 2010 by CoolFunkMan

What do I do? My experience is telling me that the person doesn't know what they are talking about, and u will get charged whatever the price is when they start to process the order (which of course doesn't happen till the game is in stock). I have never known a situation where u would have to cancel ur order and re-order it just to get the lower price! If u did decide to cancel it and re-order then as long as the game says its 'in stock' u should have no problems getting it.
CoolFunkMan Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Cheers for that! Though I decided to cancel with play now, being as they're service has really gone downhill. I've now ordered the LE from Zavvi and it says "Awaiting stock pick". hopefully I'll have more luck with them.
Jimbob Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 My copy has been dispatched from GAME today, should have it on Monday.
flameboy Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 9.1 over at IGN. great stuff...i'll have to go on media lock down seem as I'm not picking up the game until 15th but nice to see its getting good scores.
Caris Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 My copy got shipped from ShopTo today, any chance I will see it on Monday?
LegoMan1031 Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 My copy got shipped from ShopTo today, any chance I will see it on Monday? I would say there is a chance but i wouldn't hold my breath with it being dispatched on a saturday. I however am certain i will not see my copy from ShopTo till Tuesday as they have charged my account but it is still a pending order. They seem to have upgraded my delivery through to courier at no extra cost (prob just to make sure it does turn up on Tue)
Cube Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Ooh! Looks like mine will arrive today - the tracking service says that it's on the driver's van.
CoolFunkMan Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Well, I got my special edition of Bioshock 2 from Zavvi (yays for Zavvi! ) However, upon installing it and trying to activate the game, it says I can't activate it yet because it isn't out. Arses. Looks like I'll have to wait till tomorrow...
Bren Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 woo mines at home, wont have chance to play it tonight because the girlfriends comin up :'( ARGGGH WOMEN!
Mundi Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 woo mines at home, wont have chance to play it tonight because the girlfriends comin up :'( ARGGGH WOMEN! Have you learned nothing from Bioshock! A man chooses! A slave obeys!
Cube Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 OMG! Bioshock 2 it at my house!! Unfortunately, I'm at work.
Chris the great Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 mine hasnt arrived, damn you GAME! this makes my day utterly wank.
Cube Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 The detail in the special edition is wonderful. My only dissapointment is that the game case is a standard one. Although I suppose it's so it can fit alongside your other ones.
