Hi,
Sorry Mark, 2 more questions.
1) How on earth do get something in my shopping card on that site?

and
2) On the info page I read the following line:

All games are NTSC format they will not work on systems purchased outside of North America.

Games in NTSC format which wont work here in Europe? DO you (or anyone) know what they are talking about? I thought ntsc is a tv format and had little to do with whatever I am running on my system?

(Actually I also have the question why all those stores assume everyone has a stupid creditcard, but hey, this doesn't seem the right place for that )
Kind regards

i clicked on "proceed" (twice actually) and it worked

it refers to playstation, etc games, not pc games

Sorry, my fault. Due to the windows XP template I am using, on websites with a black background, buttons sometimes become invisible. Should have thought on that.

Thanx, did not think of that (never had such a thing either, so...

Thanks.
Ordered the pre-order edition today.

Can't wait to get it.
The screenshots really excite me.

I'm still waiting for Chips&Bits to cancel my order (And Markos to steal some plus time from me again )

As soon as that's done I'm going to order the REAL pre-order edition. *sigh*
It's not as if Chips&Bits makes it easy for you to cancel an order

i just ordered another (non-presell) version at play.com: http://www.play.com/play247.asp?pa=c...C&title=688285

it's only 18£, which is 31.83 USD and from the looks of it, it has free shipping, maybe even to continental europe!

they don't take such a huge margin as other retailers do?

Hi,

I just reread the Pre-Order Guide, but i think this site is yet missing? or did I just miss it?

Seems especially interesting to me because the pre-order guide only names EB games as reseller for Europe for the Pre-Order version.

And this play.com might also be interesting seen it's price.

[Robert]

Markos, I've cancelled my Chips&Bits order, you should reduced my Plus membership.

[MarkG]

your order doesnt appear as cancelled on our reports

It is in MY report.
Well, that's good enough
Maybe I should do 100 more pre-orders, and cancel them
