Rumours are rife that Sony are sending out some booklet to all those people who pre-ordered. Stories of this "Little Blue Book" are spreading through the PS2 comunity like wild fire. Is this the same brochure that has been mentioned in an earlier post? Or is this something new?

The only concern that i have is.............why send out a brochure, and a letter explaining that the next letter you receive will be your collection notice, this late in the day?

Is this a nice gesture by Sony, giving us this booklet with reviews of all the top games at release, tech specs of the coveted console, and just about all you need to know about PS2, inside and out, or is there a more sinister reason behind this "gift".

I refer back to a post i left a while back, you know, the one about the rumoured delay, the one that even I discarded as tripe (in the end anyhow :~>). Could.......it........be........... NO it couldn't be true, no way...........they wouldn't do that, not this close to launch, it would be suicidal.

But then why send it at all. A letter that basically says the same as the first confirmation letter, this close to launch, to me it seems a bit strange, but hey, as i said earlier, it could well be just a nice gesture.

The little blue book is the same has previous posts which i received early last week. It does start you thinking about why this has been sent out this close to launch before and not with the collection letters.

Is this Sony's way of breaking it slowly that there is to be a further delay. The helpline says 24th Nov is 100% firm but we know they have been wrong before. I hope Kieran is right and the collection letters are on their way i am sure we will hear it first when one of us received this magic notice.

hey kieran, i got one of those blue book thingy's it's quite cool although i would prefer the confirmation letter. the book shows the process of making and sending across the world ,shows a pic of the plane supposedly with the ps2's landing in london uk. it also shows loadsa games even munch's oddeysee which shouldn't be in there, some artwork , accesories more games , pics of people who bought it and so on.
