Dropship.

It's due on 18th January according to SR, and having played the demos I must have it!

I had to renew my membership, too - and claimed an inflatable chair as my free gift... I'm looking forward to getting that too!

Anyway, if Dropship interests you, don't forget to pre-order!

Again purely for research purposes, do they charge your credit card at the time of order like SR or when the game is dispatched like Gameplay.

Blimey! I must be psychic, because somehow I already knew... it's almost as if you told me it was due out. how creepy is that...?

Guess who I went with?

What is the delivery like with this company, will it arrive on the day of release, I know I have found cheaper companies before only to find I had to wait up to a week for the game to arrive. With SR and Gameplay, every game so far has arrived either on or in some cases before the date of release.

Just interested for research purposes you understand.

I've just preordered MGS2, but not through SR... Here's why:

MGS2:

Gameplay.com = £37.99 incl. Delivery
EB = £42.99 + Delivery
Amazon = £34.99 + Del (£37.13)
Special Reserve = £36.99 + Del for non members
Play.com = £34.99 incl Delivery

Guess who I went with?

i agree....the loading times are horrendous but as wookie said this is only a demo code. but i will be intrested to see just how much they are reduced by becuse on the demo the were outstandingly long

If I could i'd be pre-ordering a ton of games right now, unfortunately my gaming buys are dictated by the income from my job, which... isn't anywhere near enough.

Still, i'll be doing my very best to have enough to pre-order both MGS2 and MoH as soon as possible.
