So I've ordered one of the day one editions with forza from amazon.

Says estimated delivery is mon 25 nov. same for everybody else ? I've got a shopto pre order from months ago but included FIFA which I have no interest in. Thinking about cancelling my shopto order as all their forza bundles have sold out, but the delivery date of 25 worries me

People are starting to cancel with Shopto and go to Amazon. Hopefully if Shopto get more stock they may open up the swap. I'm leaving my pre-order open with them for a little while to see if they allow it. I ordered from them the day we found out about the Xbox One, so I'll be very early in their queue.

It's what I'm about to do

Or at least it did when I did my FIFA one a couple of weeks back

But mine says Monday 25 on my account

BeanBandit · 4 Sep 2013 at 21:49

Mine says 25th as well. Most of my preorders state a day or two after the release date, but they always come on the release date.

That's weird. It's part of the product description as well 'free day one delivery'. My preorder still says we will email you when we have a estimated delivery date

Fingers crossed that's the case. Shopto obviously have the stock, as they are offering them in bundles still, they are just trying to make as much money as possible by forcing people to buy bundles with "'&% they don't need.

Well they've lost my pre order

I noticed the same thing on my FIFA day one, yet the Forza one states 25th. Probably not updated their systems yet.

Fr0dders · 4 Sep 2013 at 21:53

Ah right they obviously just not added a date for the FIFA edition then. *relief*

Davey_Pitch · 4 Sep 2013 at 21:54

Hmmm, looks like Game have reduced their Day One games back to the RRP of £49.99. Maybe my 8 emails (I'm not kidding) finally did the trick!

Not all of them, just noticed Kinect sports rivals is still £55. That's one way of not selling Kinect games

Has anyone placed an order with Microsoft's store? I did and am just wondering what are they like for delivery? At the bottom it says standard delivery takes upto 7 business days.

By the way if anyone is still wanting the FIFA 14 with XBOX DAY ONE EDITION you can still order it from Microsoft...it's in stock now as I post.

Here's the link: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msuk/en_GB/pdp/Xbox-One-Day-One-+-FIFA-14/productID.282127100

Xbox One FIFA 14 Pre-Order Bundle: We are pleased to announce that all pre-order Xbox One consoles will include a digital version of the best-selling sports franchise FIFA 14 (available while stocks last). All pre-orders to date and pre-orders from today will include FIFA 14, while stocks last.

From what I've seen on amazon, there is a bit of confusion from their customer services as to whether the forza one will be release day delivery or not.
But their description does state release day delivery.
So who knows.
Wait and see what they say tomorrow no doubt.

antijoke · 4 Sep 2013 at 22:05

Was gonna ask about amazon delivery as my forza day one console says 25th yet even though I have normal delivery is expect delivery launch day.

V_R · 4 Sep 2013 at 22:32

I've just ordered the Forzas bundle off Amazon, Prime member, I chose Expedited (one day) delivery, or rather thats what was already selected and I didn't think to change it until i just read the above... Time will tell I guess.

On my order it says estimated delivery date is Saturday the 23rd...

Looks like Amazon is all out of the Forza bundle now!

Fr0dders · 4 Sep 2013 at 22:39

Yup all gone

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00DCUPE2O/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just got in at the nick of time !

Kreeeee · 4 Sep 2013 at 23:14

Well I suppose that bodes well for release day delivery of the Forza bundle for me.

Davey_Pitch · 4 Sep 2013 at 23:18

I swapped my pre-order around a little before now that Game have dropped the prices of the Day One games. This is now what I'm expecting on November 22nd...

Xbox One
Extra Controller
Fifa 14
Battlefield 4
Dead Rising 3 Day One edition
Forza 5 Limited Edition
Watch Dogs
Lego Marvel Super Heroes
£15 Microsoft Store card

Removed Ryse for now but I'll add it back on if there are more positive previews nearer to release. Plenty to keep me occupied there

Kohaashi · 4 Sep 2013 at 23:21

As far as games go I have only pre-ordered Call of Duty Ghosts and Ryse. I am thinking I will probably just go all digital as I want Dead Rising 3 as well, but I will keep the pre-orders in place for now.

It would be nice if the digital game prices were announced before release. I don't want to cancel my retail copies only to possibly get charged extra for digital copies.

jamesy505 · 4 Sep 2013 at 23:31

Too many games to decide...thinking Battlefield 4, DR3 and maybe one more. Will probably add a second controller in too
