Just got an email from Game saying my copy of Black Ops has left the building as a special delivery, and that special deliveries are next working day.
a week ahead of release date!

    nevermind jay, when you are 18 you can play it then.
    you'll just have to stick to pokemon or whatever it is the kids are into these days.

  • I was speaking to the guy in Game near me the other day, and he said that Sainsburys are selling it at something like £26 at midnight on release day.

    Only problem is the Sainsbury's local to me is only getting 9 copies in (according to the man in game).
  • got one for me for 25 quid delivered from woolworths and another one from tesco for 35 quid delivered
    i reckon asda will be selling cheapest on release as they seem to do on all major releases lately

    You do know Woolworths aren't honouring the code as it wasnt for their website, I believe it was for Very.co.uk.

    Tesco Entertainment is one of cheapest that is still reliable, you can get PS3 or Xbox for £35 using the discount code, and my card has already been charges so I hope it is on its way early!!

    I cant predict the price, but if Fifa (£25 last year, £34 this year) is anything to go by, COD wont be £26 again.

    I have read on a forum that Sainsburys will be doing it at a decent price but you will have to spend £50 on food, dont know how true it is but a decent deal if you shop there already.

    I don't have a clue! This is what he told me though, he is not likely to make something up about another store selling it cheaper than his is he. Shouldn't have told me if it is true anyway, if he wants me to keep my business with his store.
  • they have honoured the code, its paid for already and havent heard anything so far from them so it should be ok

    My copy has been dispatched from Game today, hopefully here Friday/Saturday :D
  • I'm so jealous of you guys, i've spunked me money on a new bike and left myself pennyless to buy black ops, and xmas is almost 2 months away so cant really ask for the game now. Wife said she'd get it for me though, between the game or a new wheelset.

    Let me know if wager matches really are as good as they look. They look epic.,

  • Or it has and that's why noone has posted up complaining that it hasnt come yet lol.
  • its not bad, not convinced yet that its better than cod:mw2. only played a few missions, but escaping from a prison whilst weilding a minigun is good fun, its a nasty mofo.

    update:

    got an email yesterday, after much research on early deliveries, it was game saying you have an email to say its been shipped but the game is being held by the courier company till the release date!!!! how stoopid is that? hope some work experience kid sticks it on the van by mistake.

    then in the post today was a dvd sized package.......cue much excitement!


    opened and it was CALL OF DUTY BLACK OPS!!!!!! promotional cd rom / see through bit of plastic with a picture on it, and that's it! pointless bit of tat which will go straight in the bin. a couple of £ off or some points would have been nicer.



    b'stards guess im waiting till monday then :cry:
  • sorry psymon :)
