Ovi1 said:Not just any Friday, but GOOD Friday...
If they haven't got distribution sorted and lots of copies in the shops then there won't be many people from the UK playing catacombs until Tuesday
Javai said:My experience with Gameplay is that if you pre-order with first class post you generally recieve the item on the Thursday, similarly play.com ship when they get the stock. .

Requiel said:British stores will get it on the same day as continental stores however there's an arrangement between retailers that they will issue new releases on Fridays as it gives them the maximum sale time before weekly charts are released. Nothing we can do about that unfortunately
Raven said:heh, funny how gran turismo got released yesterday (wednesday) and most other games get released on any day.
When SI came out, game wanted to sell it on the thursday, they had to get confirmation from you that they could.
Baybaen said:Phoned www.play.com and www.gameplay.co.uk today and both companies insist the release date for catacombs is April 15th even though i stated that GOA have set an official release date.
Flimgoblin said:only really one that's idiotically overpowered
rest are just normally overpowered
Animal said:I contacted play.com as well through email , got the response that the release date is what they have been told by the supplier for the game .
Think maybe GOA need to start giving their suppliers a few slaps
RS|Phil said:UK? Did they say whether they'd send it out Thursday to get delivered Saturday or just say tough bollocks you'll get it the next week sometime?
gervaise said:You mean the banshee yes?
Flimgoblin said:nah the warlock
though the bainshee has a fun stacking ability that's turning out to be pretty hideously cheesy but I imagine it'll get fixed soon enough (along with the warlock)
Shike said:bainshee+croc ring+300 abla that absorbs magic damage aswell for everyone? sounds like great fun for the enemy
Flimgoblin said:that's the one - now have 4 bainshee with that
York said:Why would you think that the shops will be closed on a bank holiday? I dont know about you lot but my family go shopping on a bank holiday because the shops see it as an additional saturday, the most profitable day of the week.
Think about it, its a friday .. the day most people get paid!
It happens all the time, companies start advertising .. 'open this bank holiday'!! Were not in the 80's anymore, capitalism rules ok!
For anyone that works in the commercial sector .. have you been badgered by your boss to work bank holiday yet? Getting double pay? i mean come on, there are loads of shops open on bank holidays, including the game shops. The only day the country shuts down is xmas day .. look at last boxing day (bank holiday btw) the shops couldnt wait to open and start those sales.
Your worrying over nothing
(that statement doesnt apply to internet shopping, they choose thier own hours and of course i agree with the fact we dont get any post on bank holidays but jees go outside and down the shops (they want you too).
haarewin said:easter sunday most shops are shut for 'easter'.
not on a bank holiday they wont.
read up: i have to <a style='text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 3px double;' href="http://www.serverlogic3.com/lm/rtl3.asp?si=24&k=make%20up" onmouseover="window.status='make up'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">make up</a> my hours for sunday on the day after. will get double pay for it. pretty much every shop will be closed on easter sunday. the country effectively closes down on easter sunday (and christmas day), except for pubs and some restaurants, which make a roaring trade still. agree about the boxing day thing, i was meant to work that day anyway but bitched and complained for months so that i wouldn't have to.
true. i'll be going into town to buy it anyway, i cba dealing with an online company for pre-ordering an expansion, after the last 2 times at least. unless there is no other option
