LittleBigPlanet (PS3™) General Discussion

Are there any stores in the UK that are breaking the Release date? We know there's tons in the US, but I've yet to hear anything for us brits..

If your local GAME or Gamestation or whatever has LBP on the shelfs, tell us

I'll update this as we go along.

I may go into town tomorrow to check there is a game and a gamestation and also one of those shady stores where you will always be able to get a game before release so ill check there too

Yeah, I'm gonna ring my stores up today in about 5 minutes, see what they say.. Then I'll go check my shady corner of the market store tomorrow

I phoned up my local one, says to come in this friday (original release) and i even pre-ordered over the phone without spending money i like!

Might go in Monday though, maybe go make sure it is pre-ordered and ask for pre-release buying  

What do you think is the easiest way to ask for something like that? "hey is there any chance i can get it early?" or offer a free fiver or something? 

[DrunkMiffy]

Just ask if it's in stock xD

That's what I'm gonna do when I ring them.. "Oh hey.. Just wondering, do you have any copies of LittleBigPlanet in stock?... Uhhuh, and when am I able to pick one up..?"

I usually go with "Shop X is selling it early and lots of my on line friends already have...so can you sell it yet" 9/10 times they say yes.

Does that actually honestly work? I can see it working with your parents or whatever xD Didn't think a store would react like that.

[CharlieBananas]

Indeed it does, they usualy find the manager, he some times rings up elsewhere, but the answer is mostly - yes.

You shouldn't even be buying it, considering how deeply offended you are by the stickers.

Good news! My blockbuster still has it down for the 24th! They said to come in and preorder it, she even checked the computer!
