Mine is supposed to ship out tomorrow, and hopefully get delivered Friday.. Although I have my doubts, I hope i'm proven wrong.
 
Sim racing news have had quite a lot of videos stuck online.

The early middle 'eastern release' drove a coach and horses through the embargo's intent, with retailers selling it before they should.

I'm pretty sure Sim Racing (like many other outlets) have permission to post gameplay of it. They got a press release and everything. Their probably not allowed to post their written review until Friday.

Have to admit most papers do reviews for games on a Friday anyway so there's no worry there
 
cancelled my amazon order, will try to pick it up at midnight at walmart or on the way home from work

doesnt seem to have a huge demand for the game so it should be in stock almost anywhere
 
Just re-reading the info from GAME with the pre-order and it doesn't mention about the precision pack what so ever. Hope they do have it :/
 
Today in my email from Simply Games:
Your Orders On Its Way!

Great News! Your order (Ref: xxxxxx) for Gran Turismo 6 (Includes Precision & Torque DLC Packs and GT6 Keyring) has been picked, packed and despatched by our warehouse team.
...and will arrive within 2-4 working days.
Thanks again for ordering with SimplyGames!

Yep, I have noticed that too.
When I (and others) pre-ordered it, it definitely said it came with the precision pack and from what I understand, is the bit that was exclusive to Game UK.
 
Still no change on the Amazon UK front although it is supposedly coming with Torque Pack, Precision Pack and One Million Credits. When I pre-ordered over a month ago I'm sure the credits weren't listed.

I do hope so otherwise I am not gonna be happy
 
Amazon France is saying available 6th estimated arrival date 9th. Frak. Was to be expected though, i'm slightly hoping to get it on Saturday the 7th but i will not be holding my breath.

Depends on what constitutes a 'review' I suppose.
 
Just tried contacting Game UK (their webchat thing is useless as it's always full).

Anyway, I tried the 0871 594 0022 number but can't get through to a human.
I then rang the head office number, 01256 784000 and spoke to a lady in reception and all she said is that the customer service team are very busy and to keep trying the website...

Not much help and terrible customer service IMO.
 
On mine (Gamezone in Norway) it says it will ship today. So there may be a tiny chance I'll have it tomorrow. But I'd say 85% friday, 10% sat, 4% next week.

I also order from Gamezone and got an e-mail yesterday saying that it had been sendt by mail.
When I got home from work today, i found the anniversary edition waiting in the mailbox.
 
My Anniversary edition box was delivered today, and the DLC codes arrived in an email.

I'm sure I had something else planned for this evening, but I've completely forgotten what it was...... ;)
 
Even more itchy feet now.

I think the back up plan is the local Asda. They open 24 hours, so if it looks like it's not going to make on the day from Amazon, I'll be heading there.

Any UK peeps know if Asda's put game stock out at midnight for these kinds of releases?

Lucky, really want mine now
 
Mine has just shipped! Let's play the waiting game now. I think I'm gonna go play GT5 goodbye, erase game data and make room for GT5.5..ehm..GT6, sorry:D

Bodger, your local Asda isn't Hatfield by any chance is it?

Just spoke to Amazon on their chat line, all systems are green apparently and they'll dispatch tomorrow. Asda is also my port of call if there's no movement by 4pm tomorrow.
 
Has anyone who preordered the anniversary edition with game received thier pre order codes by email yet as i haven't.

York.

Ok, that gives me a bit more confidence. Cheers.
 
Got an email today that my pre order payment had been declined. I've never had any trouble like this before. I contacted PayPal & they said that Simply Games had tried to put the payment through but not submitted enough information. Call me paranoid, but I think they've done it deliberately so they can say they've fulfilled all their pre orders, then blame it on everyone else's bank for a bad transaction! Either way, I won't be ordering anything ever again from Simply Games. :grumpy:
