Bought the pre-order 360 CE from a certain retailer and picked up the bonus keyring and music cd. Then I went to another retailer for the Ltd Edition on PC with the statuette...

What a pile of **** the statuette is! Complete waste of time and money. I sold my 360 copy on ebay within 30 mins of posting it online and made £35 so all in all I got all the goodies available plus the PC version of the game for about £38 (plus £12.50 I had accumulated on my reward card) so all in all not too bad I reckon - just have to wait for work to end so I can get home!!!

Got any pictures of this statue?

Alty · 31 Oct 2008 at 15:25

Alas no (am at work) but trust me - it is complete and utter tripe - it looks like something my 6 month old neice coulda done. It's soooooo not worth the money

It dont look owt like the picture on their website.

My game keeps freezing or not responding every five mins. Tried updating all my drivers, codecs and re-installed to no avail

Will have to wait for a patch to see if that resolves my issues as it's unplayable other wise.
Running it maxed at 1680x1050 vsync on and still getting a solid 60fps when it runs.

Steam really needs to get their pricing sorted per region, £37 on Steam or £30 in pretty much every shop, and it's probably cheaper online.

Jezza_York · 31 Oct 2008 at 16:12

Yep Steams prices are really taking the mick to be honest, 37 is a joke. Some of their products are keenly priced, but seemingly not the new preorders alas.

Has anyone else had any past experiences with preordering games from the dog and grammar phone music shop? Are they reliable? As my CE was shipped on Tuesday.

I've previously ordered a DVD from them, and if that experience is anything to go by I wouldn't expect to see it this time next week! :eek:

Although the highstreet store that gives you reward points has let me down this time! Another day over and still no sign. Now, I'm very disappointed! :mad:

Odd. What postage option did you ask for? :confused:

Mine arrived yesterday.
