Get this... I cannot play my ZOE and MGS2 Demo this morning because of a sticker problem !!

To explain, I preordered the game on special reserve and expected it to arrive today. To my dissapoint there was nothing in my mail box this morning.
I rang special reserve to check things out and was told that the games are indeed in stock but that the distributor will not let special reserve distribute them because they do not have the sticker saying that the MGS2 demo is included. Now special reserve, and I, have to wait for stickers to arrive before my game can be shipped.

DOH.

Could it be my PS2 because it is very loud playing games and watching DVD’s, it’s that loud that the noise distracts me, and I sit well away from the TV. If it is my PS2 what is the number to get it changed?

Come on MGS2 work!!!

Apparently theres a batch of MGS2 demos that have problems. You've just got to be patient as they take ages to load. believe me its worth it. so viperfire sit tight and wait a little

I did the same thing with renting ZOE at Blockbusters and when I got it home there was no Demo Disc! The rental copies only must come without the free Demo that you are suppost to get, which means the only way for the demo is to buy the whole game! The graphics are good on it though, the PS2 is starting to show something at long last. The game is not perfect, but so much better than all the the others that came out on launch. Looks like a taster of things to come :-)

The Z.O.E. I got from EB has a 15 rating on it, but it is not a sticker it is part of the front cover.

The MGS2 demo that came with it will not load, the PS2 just starts screaming. Is there something up with my PS2 or is it the demo?

Conker's an 18... but it has the 18 certificate actually written on the box, not just the sticker...

That damn Zelda. About six years in development... worth it mind. Great game.

TG - Seriously though, we are talking about a couple of days here. Not a Zelda like delay, or anything ;-0.
