Pre-Ordering - Amazon or Play?
Hi All,
Im going to pre-order a game and i want is as soon as it hits the streets. Now, Amazon and Play are both offering it at the same price (Amazon with 1-2 Day delivery selected) so which one should i place my bets with?
Anyone got a preference for this sort of stuff?

Yep, I'd say Play too.
Amazon seem to always mess up their release dates.

Ah but if you use Amazon by using the link here at CF you help to pay for the running of CF.

Agreed.
The trouble with Amazon is you never know who will deliver it until its dispatched, if your not at home that can cause problems as some insist on you signing

My bookmark to Amazon links this site in so everytime i go there it looks like a referral from here.
Its just that Amazon can sometimes be a bit crap and im not a big fan of their free delivery policy where they wait 5 days before sending something out as opposed to sending an item second class.
