There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance.

Any idea why?

Can anyone help?

hm just read numerous threads with people who had there BF3 and MW3 pre-orders "on back order" with Asda and they still got theirs on release date.

Will just have to wait and see.

Anyone with ShopTo had their Skyrims shipped yet??

Might be a blonde moment here, but why are so many of you hooking up controllers?

I found The Witcher 2 fine with KB/M. What am I missing!

Some people like to play on a big screen from their sofa/bed, and trying to use a mouse anywhere except a flat surface isn't going to be great.

I have a 360 controller, but I'm personally gonna be sat at my desk for this, so kb/m for me.

mainly because the of the dual wielding which a controller is perfectly suited too, gonna give both a try and see which I prefer ,might as well.

It cant be any different surely? I mean with regards to dual weilding, you have two mouse buttons and cant block while dual weilding.

Anyone have any idea on when the Steam pre-loads start?

I'm guessing either tommorow or the next day but any information on the subject is welcome.

Not yet - expecting it to be shipped on Wednesday, but I have asked on their forums and they are going to let us know when they are all shipping

Eagerly awaiting the steam preload...

Titchy · 8 Nov 2011 at 07:48

Is there a release date for the book ?

I have not stumbled across somewhere where the guide is in stock or even a release date, thanks.

I can't wait. I haven't been looking forward to a game like this for a loooooooong time.

The guide sounds amazing, though I can't find it anywhere.

Titchy · 8 Nov 2011 at 08:05

Yeah , i would love to have it for release day as well as the game but it doesn't to be out yet.

Goates · 8 Nov 2011 at 08:37

Just got my £15 voucher for Amazon from love film in time for this. Got first class postage hopefully arrives on Friday

Beasty · 8 Nov 2011 at 08:46

May have to get the guide for the ipad app, hopefully you can get it seperate excellent companion!

eggyoke · 8 Nov 2011 at 08:50

Had a google around and found the guide available at gamestation for pre-order. The hardback collectors edition is nowhere to be found for pre-order in the UK though. Shame as it looks awesome, I would have ordered it.

Been ages since I bought a guide

Supercow · 8 Nov 2011 at 09:28

Really don;t understand why anyone would buy a gameguide anyway.
