i am the same, phoned them up and they said it would be going out monday. I tried to cancel but they said it's too late. Going to go out and get it at lunch time and return the play.com one, when they eventually ship it.

I'm never using play.com again.

i know how you feel, i have heard that there mey just be a postal strike (dont quote me on that) but play.com really needs to book their ideas up

yes unbelievably disappointing, i preordered with tesco online and yesterday i decided to cancel it and order with play.com because tescos hadn't even started picking the order yet. my order is the same status as everybody elses. i am going buying it over the counter tonight and will send play.coms back when it eventually arrives. i usual receive games from play.com on release date (my batman collectors thingy arrived on time last week)

I've just been down to blockbuster and picked it up on Xbox360 for £29.99

Bonus. My play.com order was for PS3 version so I may end up keeping that one too to give me options. I was put off the PS3 version though after hearing about the tearing still evident in the final build, which is why I went Xbox this time.

anyhoo, I'll be playing on it tonight and I'll never use play.com again.

Mail strike in UK? FFS!

The game has representations of Britains Finest Hours and nowadays you can't get a friggin letter delivered. Striking in the middle of the worst economic crisis since the great depression...Postman Pat you are a c**t!

Woke up to find that my copy will come at around noon. Looks to be a good Labor Day Weekend

Right..

Since my order from play.com (uk) is on status 'Packing' for two days now i decided to get the ps3 version, play that for some time. Once the 360 version from play would arrive i would just wrap the ps3 version in a nice paper and give that to a friend. He isn't much of a console gamer, but does own a ps3 and is really into WWII history. Esp the russian side of things. Great plan isn't it?

No shop in Amsterdam even heard of BoP. Some of the better ones suggested i really meant il2 1946. At most of them i just ended up staring at the face of some youngster with a question mark painted over his face. While texting all of this to a friend he suggested a place on the edge of town. They often have the lesser known titles. And sure, it was listed on the website!! Spend about an hour in dutch public transport, not fun. And indeed, they heard about BoP!!! Sadly it didn't came in today. When it would arrive... they had no clue.. *sigh* Spend another hour back in public transport empty handed.

Not wanting to do a 'Dennis' here, but i fear the sales for BoP in the netherlands won't be that high =( It's really impossible to get here it seems. Been roaming the intern3tz for some time and only a handfull of independent shops sell it in the netherlands. Shame really.

Every game I have ever ordered from them has turned up a day before release. This is of course apart from IL2 due to a postal strike and once before also due to a postal strike! They are usually very good and this wiould appear to not be their fault.

Believe it or not, I don't work for them. I just wouldn't want you to be put off what is usually a first class service.
