Remember that they still have to process payments and pack the orders before sending them out.

Instructions on how to download Nariko will be sent during the week of release.

They're not stupid enough to give codes out when you order.

I'd keep both pre-orders and whatever one comes first, cancel the other order. If they both come at the same time just send it back and get a refund.

It'll probably be around 7pm. In case there are people, I'll leave a little list of sorts and update it with people who are interested:

1. Chaz'oSulls
2.
3.
4.

P.S. Good connection pliz!

Fair enough. If I take it that the shipment was in one go, then it means that its being delivered down south and so should take a while to reach me 'up north'.

Does Play.com always deliver pre-orders late? Or was this just a coincidence that people got their LBP copies from Play late. Because I've prordered another game of their... I was expecting it on the day of release >.> Should I still expect it then?2008-11-10 12:15:00

No. They must have preordered it late and were put last on the list. Seeing as there were so many orders, posting would have taken longer.
The lesson learned here is preorder early and you will get early, just like me.

I know what you mean, I can't find anything.

I just checked their LBP page a min ago, and they're still offering the character and say they're sending out the codes every friday. Now, it used to say 'if you pre-order' up to a few days ago, & I didn't pre-order, I ordered on release day when it said 'in stock'. But as I said they had the character thing in the title well after release.

Now they've changed the description to simply 'if you order from us... blah blah. So even though I didn't pre-order, I still feel I deserve it.
