Just wondering if anyone knows of any online retailers that provide CD keys for games on release day?

Specifically looking for Battlefield 3, MW3 & Star Wars: The Old Republic.

I know you can `gift` MW3 via Steam, but Steams prices are at times OTT.

You can't `gift` through Origin either so BF3 & SWTOR is out, so wondered if there's anywhere else that's legitimate & trustworthy on the 'net.

Going to be running a free compo to win a copy of each game but need a key on release date for the winners & not wait for a box.

Don't most stores deliver on time for release day, or sometimes even earlier? Its a risk, mind.
 
I've ordered from both Game and Zavvi before nowt arrived on release day, Aion was almosta week late! Good job they had a grace period lol. Zavvi was 4 days late on cataclysm also, ended up buying digital the day before.

Those are the only 2 gaems I've ordered and needed before/on elease day lol
 
I would use an online cd key store such as cjs BUT after reading a recent thread on AV Forums about them & the fact that they kept giving out duplicate keys for some CoD games it makes me worry about them.

The last thing I want is to give a prize away & then that persons game be banned etc, would make us look right muppets.

Such a shame we can't gift stuff on Origin etc, but I can;t see any other way than buying retail in the shop to have the key on the day. Actually I'd prefer it in advance so that the winners could pre-load the game in readiness.

Hmmm...
