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.

I hope they have shipped ZOE out today as being an A-Level student in the final year (Exams in a few months NOOOOO) Sunday is the only main time I get to play on games , well apart from a hour or 2 in the week after I have done homework and all the other stuff I do. And iam getting Shadow Of Memories next week. So iam praying that the sticker prob is sorted out.

All this delay stuff better not happen with Conker and Banjo! Mind you, I have got loads of work to do for college...okay, you can delay them but I want them released as soon as I give the thumbs up...okay!?

Yet another blunder to add to the Playstation 2's profile...it would be hell having to write a referance for this console!

But I wouldn't worry...just because games are delayed it doesn't mean that it takes any of the fun away, Perfect Dark was one for that, imperfect release - Perfect Game.

ZOE will be just the same. I am looking forward to playing it whenever I can! The storyline seems to be more than I thought it would be. I originally thought it was just a fighing game.

One thing I don't understand is that people say the N64 had harldy any games...but so did the playstation...well not if you count the 2006 accidents that somehow go put on a disc! Nintendo is all about quality not quantity. There are a good 35 super N64 games, there are about 10 PSX games that could keep you satisfied!

I hope the PS2 gets a little better, not because I have one, what do you take me for, but because I want to see some decent competition, competing against Photodraw, and Moto GP isn't enough for Nintendo...we want more competition...where is you MGS2...oh sorry, it was delayed...Ha ha ha.

Seriously though...ha ha ha ha

So does that mean we can't walk into a S/R shop and buy one off the shelf?

I'm renting it from Blo****ster tonight and hope they have the demo with it.

Thanks for the info, Ali.

In the meantime, could you give us the address of your supplier, so that those of us desperate to play the MGS2 demo can practice our stealth and killing skills at their offices? :-)

The problem is that the box has no age rating on it for the MGS 2 demo. The demo is rated 15 by the BBFC (the official one) and if there is no rating on the box, it is illegal for us to distribute them, sorry. We are on top of this problem though and will be sending them out as soon as possible.

I recieved an E-mail from SR saying that they had ZOE in stock, but alas - nothing in my post box this morning, which'll mean that I'll have to wait until monday to play it. NO FAIR!!
