Currently on "dispatching soon" with Amazon UK, Collectors 320GB Bundle. Delivery estimate is still the 24th, so assuming they get it dispatched first class before 3pm (i think that's the cutoff time for NDD?) I should get next day delivery, all things being well. :)

Royal Mail says it should be in the first early post of the day to get the next day delivery. I'm expecting mine tomorrow (says dispatched) , but postman delivers at about 2pm.
ordered on the 6th of august from amazon uk.
 
Just looked on the PF site, it says Royal Mail Recorded and some other items aren't tracked until they're delivered - so our SEs could still be on the way.
 
Why do I have a feeling those orders from GAME are standard editions. :nervous:

I want my SE!!! Anyhows, will be going down to check for packages later after lunch..
 
You know what? This is what happens when you let your wife order a PS3 game, she goes to Play and then it is late! Women! :)

Edit: By late i mean, on time, but not early!

Just a word of warning. After you've updated and installed to your HHD the GT5 logo will load and appear to hang.......fear not it's trying to connect to a server which I suspect isn't online just yet. The game will load.......that intro video is a bit better second time round :D

Hello, everyone, I'm new to GT series. Had the GT5 Prologue and loved it. At this very moment my copy of GT5 is sitting in my PS3 and installing the files. Probably I'll have to wait until Thursday to try it out. It's a shame that the game came early and I can't enjoy it (work :ouch:). So see you all on the GT5 tracks.

P.S bought it from Game. And it just came this morning around 10:51.

Take care and see you soon.
 
I ordered mine from Play.com

Its just arrived, I got the PS3 Slim 320Gb bundle with GT5 Collectors!

PS. Im in the UK.
So Play orders are delivering today, well, some...hope you enjoy! Looks like another day for it to get out as far as crossing the Tamar then...

Seriously, being in Bristol you should have had this yesterday!

Congrats, welcome to :gtpflag: and enjoy the game. See on track :D
 
My housemate ordered it from Amazon and i ordered it from Play - his copy has arrived and mine is nowhere to be seen unless i've changed names (and genders) and the disc arrives in a letter :'(

I have a funny feeling the consoles get delivered via a different method to the games. ie. Consoles arrived yesterday / Today. Games arriving tomorrow. (Hopefully)

Yeah it seems that those with it today are them there southeners! I live in yorkshire so am intrigued as to whether mr postman has delivered it today, but I am doubtful. As long as i get it tomorrow, but i'm out all tomorrow evening, and finishing work late, yay! Looks like it will be a friday evening all-nighter for me, haha

I've only seen two people post to say that they have received their copy from Play.com, both of those people had ordered PS3 bundles. Hopefully it'll be here by tomorrow, but I will still go home at 1pm to check if my copy has arrived.
 
I've just been on the phone to GAME and asked if the SE will be delivered today, and they have said that the SE with the higher value being delivered by Parcel Force will be with customers tomorrow.

I inquired as to why some copies had arrived today and the customer service assistant said that the regular editions being sent out by Royal mail may be delivered today.

So, tomorrow it is.

All the best
Maz

Good point, i hadn't realised that dude got his with a bundle. The only reason I used play.com was because they sent me KZ2 early, so thought they'd come good again. As long as it aint late I will be happy, just means tomorrow will drag, but at least the wife will be home tomorrow to let me know whether it has arrived or not.

Thanks for the info. And well played GAME, way to treat your higher paying customers. So yet another day of torment.
 
Panic Over!

After play.com order failed to show this morning I went on yell.com and started ringing round some independent retailers. After 4 or 5 attempts with no success I rang a shop about 20 miles away. Conversation went like this:

Me: Hello mate do you have Gran Turismo 5 in stock?
Shop Guy: Yes.
Me: Will you sell me a copy today?
Shop Guy: Yes.
Me: Mate your a ****ing legend!
Shop Guy: Yes.
