Sorry :-) I got screwed for black ops. I drove to the post depo trying to get it with no luck. I just rented it from xtravision in the end and was left waiting an extra week for it to be delivered. Can't rent it with BF because it needs an online code

Buy it and send the gamestop copy back, thats what I have done.

courier delivered it this morning - €3 extra for express post = bargain

just as a matter of interest. why would anyone buy these games online, when you can go into gamestop on the day and just pick it up..

Considering all gamestops are a pain in the arse to get to for me (XtraVision is easy enough though) and they normally deliver on time, its usually a good choice... Not so much this time though...

main reason i went gamestop online was it was the cheapest, plus last time i got my game a day early.

not this time though

I only popped down to xtra vision I did not pre order and they had loads of copies for pc/ps3/360 so far it's pretty good concentration on campaign first

how much in xtravision?
did you get the free map pack???

€49.99 and you get the map pack but it's like a month or so and also got free popcorn and That movie with sly Stallone, Arnold and Jason stratham

did you pay for that on top of the normal postage, as in you opted for normal postage then once it didn't come paid the courrier?

Got email on wednesday saying it was dispatched by gamestop via standard post

Exact same , Went into gamestore and bought a copy , when my "preorder" arrives I'll bring it back still sealed with the receipt and get credit towards mw3 I think.

Pc version by the way.

Are they not doing a deal where you trade in BF3 and get MW3 for 99c anyway

Same here and didn't arrive today(Friday) of course.Ordered it over a week ago and it was only shipped on Wednesday????????? I blame myself really i was warned about Gamestop but i was suckered in by the price.But lesson learnt i can tell you that.Be lucky to get it next Tuesday at the earliest:mad:

i got mine from gamestop today but the guy behind the counter gave me a sheet with redeem codes for the gun pack for the 360, i have a ps3, i hope i can take them back tomorrow for the ps3 code instead

The nightline website says that they operate on saturday mornings but i dunno if thats true or not

So would what I'm about to suggest be possible:

Walk in to GameStop shop today and buy the Limited Edition for €39.99 and install that version. When the game arrives in the post, use the weapon unlock codes (I think they come in a separate sheet of paper), and then bring the version I got in the post (I presume it's still wrapped in cellophane) back to the GameStop shop and use my receipt to get a full refund?

Didn't get mine either yesterday, was using this as a test for MW3, think I might have to cancel my pre-order now...
