ahh crap i ordered from HMV, i better be getting this on release day
Ditto, although I have had a 'dispatched' email from them, so fingers crossed.
One interesting point I do know, the Game.co.uk pre-orders have been sent to the relevant depots, and will be there until the dispatch day (people have been getting messages saying expected delivery 3rd, then on the 4th it changed to the 4th, it's an automatic system message, but they are there).
The point is, a few people over on the AV forums have gone to their local depot and collected the game, today! just gone with ID and the tracking number, said the item was dispatched but they weren't in and hay presto, they got the game.
because its a tuesday release the couriers will bring it for Monday im sure, But HMV are still using Royal Mail arent they? so they wont be bringing/sorting mail until the thursday?

Game.co.uk are fantastic when it comes to pre-orders Ive always used them and always got the game the day before release and when Warhammer Online came out I got it 3 days before release date, I know a few people at my local GAME store already have the game and are using it, I guess 1 of the perks of working there
No, HMV are using parcelforce too, well they are for me as I have opted for the business delivery option. But as I said, all the GAME pre-orders are in the depots now, so people are going in in person to collect.

Playstation 3 Game - Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Shipped Date - 03/11/2009
Hope I get it soon
They haven't actually been shipped, they've just printed a label matching your pre-order to the game, the email is automatically generated. They've been printing them early due to the volumes they need to process. They wont be going out till Sat at the earliest (more than likely Monday), then we should get some tracking numbers, with them being delivered on Tuesday.
