Black Ops on pre-order

Nemeses · 26 Oct 2010 at 23:21

Who it on pre-order and from where was looking yesterday, no chance I will get it on steam or D2D as they both way to expensive. £39 & £44 on D2D, where at the 2 major retailers its 29.99.

(NOTE: not sure how many of the places you can buy it from are allowed to be mentioned on here).

If you don't/cannot say where just say if you have it on pre-order and the price

Cant say, since overclockers sell it.

Ive got it on pre order for pc £34.99, free delivery and a whopping 3% cash back.

I've always had pre orders from this place the day before release, for over 10 years

I've seen it some places for £29.99, but the ones i found have shocking delivery on stuff (normally up to a week to deliver stuff) so i avoided them.

It was £29.99 not sure they will honour that price as I went to pre-order this evening and its been jacked up to £34.99 now (no doubt due to heavy demand).

i got mine for £29.99

however, it makes no difference getting it a day early as you will only be able to play it when steam release it

Yeah but it's worth Installing it off the DVD as the game is about 12GB I belive. Unless you don't mind downloading something that big off Steam when you have the DVD.

Found for £29.99 with free next day delivery too...

especially on or close to release, i think the steam servers may be a tad busy

That is true, however the main place i found that had it for 29.99, ive always had horrible experiences with delivery wise. Either way, im not bothered as long as i get it on the day

Is this game going to be resaleable?

Doubtful, as it has full steam integration.
