My signature edition ordered from GAME has been showing up on the Parcelforce tracking since yesterday evening as "Express 24". However no further tracking details are being given at the moment so I guess it is sitting in a Parcelforce office somewhere - optimistically I hope it starts its journey today to be delivered tomorrow - pessimistically it will start its journey tomorrow to arrive on Wednesday.
My GT5 has been dispatched

That's a shame then. Shopto seems to be graudally getting worse. When I first used them a couple of years ago for pre-orders, you got the charged email and the shipped email within a few mins of each other so you knew you paid and shopto did their part and dispatched.
But this last year or so, the time between being charged for a pre-order and the item actually shipping has become longer and longer. The last few games they've been charging Tuesday afternoon but there's no dispatch until sometime on the Wednesday and in one case the Thursday morning.
I'm beginning to think I should switch to some other e-tailer that is a bit smaller - I think shopto just got too much of a rep for early deliveries and have had some troubles so now they're very careful :/

I have pre-ordered GT5 CE from Amazon UK and it hasn't be dispatched. So i sent them a quick email asking why and if I would get my copy on the 24/11/2010. They responded very quicky:

...Well that's me definately making a special trip home at midday today to see if it's sat waiting for me.
I don't think I'd cope this afternoon wondering whether it might be there. Mind you, if it is there I won't be able to play it until this evening anyway! ...It's going to be a long afternoon

Is it wrong for a 43 year old man to be this excited about a video game?

Oh yes, very wrong - at the age of 40 and above it is totally unacceptable to be excited about a video game.
I'm so glad I'm only 39...
