Have you got the official blue form from sony, or have you pre-ordered another way? According to most people that i have talked to, only with the official pre-order form will you get a PS2. Is this right, or not?
I have heard some people saying that they pre-ordered over the net, and so do not have the official blue form. Will this affect their chances of getting a PS2?
Sorry for all the questions, but i have been led to believe that yu had to have an official pre-order to stand any chance of getting a console before christmas. Now i pre-ordered on the 12th september, so a lot of people have got in the queue before me, so how can people who pre-ordered in the last couple of weeks jump to the front of the queue? This to me sounds suspect.
I hope that everyone who pre-ordered gets their console at launch, but information from Sony suggests otherwise.
Anyone else got a angle on this?

that could be why the PS2 had 35'000 thingy's cut.
cuz i ordered over the net a little while ago.
and they said i would definaely get one, then we was told a couple of days later when we rang agen that we ordered jus in time because they cant take anymore orders for relesae date and this was the day when sony made the announcement of the cut.
sumthing sounds a little suss. i dunno why but i have a feeling that more ppl r gonna get a PS" then they think.
we'll just have to wait and see.

Japanese console will b dearer because you have to get it from everseas,
it will work over here but it wont play English Games, you would have to get a converter. to play English games, if you can play japanese games but they will cost alot because you have to get it from overseas and you will have to leanr who to read and understand japanese, it will be better to wait and get an english one

My understanding is that you need the blue order form to collect the PS2 from the retailer and this is what Sony have said.
However if you are ordering on the net it is not possible to fill in the preorder form but the white copy must be needed by Sony to place on the database queue.
It would be intresting to hear from someone who has ordered from Special Reserve like Matt to see if they have a blue preorder form.

Whilst Sony have said that the date you preorder will determine your place in the queue, we have all heard stories of each retailer having certain numbers of PS2's.
I can only assume that some shops or retailers have not sold their full allocation of launch date PS2's through bad advertising (If this is possible) or only taking orders recently and not from 7th Sept.
I assume this is why there where still 35,000 forms out there which has been said in previous posts.

I have the blue order form. I got it when I recived the pre-order form confirmation from Sony. After recieving confirmation from Special Reserve last week that my PS2 will be dispatched within the first allocation of stock I can only hope that this will be on or just after the release date.
A lot of companies have different ways of dealing with their allocation. Here at Special Reserve it is based on first come first served. All orders before and on 26th March of this year will be fulfilled around November, I placed mine on the 19th March so therefore should (fingers crossed) get mine before Christmas.
Other companies were offering pre-order forms first come first served aswell, to their most loyal customers or by placing deposits down months in advanced.
I guess it is really up to the companies who gets first priority by their specific order sceme.
