Hello everyone,

I thought I'd start this console agnostic thread about the deliveries we are all about to receive.

Basically, I ordered (an XBOX One) from Tesco and have had no correspondence from them. Has anyone else?

Let us know where you've ordered from and any updates you get from them.

PS4 from Amazon, plenty of communication from them since July. Offers on bundles I might like and reminders if I change my order I lose the day one delivery.

I pre-ordered in-store at Game. I've had lots of emails from them and an invite to go in early on Thursday or Friday to pay the full amount to speed up collection on Friday evening. I've only done one midnight opening before (for GTA 4 when I had more free time than was healthy), so this will be fun. I don't imagine I'll get much sleep on Friday night thanks to Forza 5 and Battlefield 4. Hoping I don't have to download gigabytes of updates to get going because my home internet is pap.

Ordered XBone from Amazon, plenty of communication too.

No money taken yet. They should start tomorrow I would think.

I won't be able to take delivery until the Friday, so for once, I'm hoping it doesn't come a day early.

I have a preorder with Gamestop (in the US because I live there). Next day shipping, but still don't know if I'm getting it Friday, Saturday, Monday, or some time in January.

My mate ordered his console from Tesco and heard nothing from them, he only found out that it had been paid for when he went to draw some money out and had £400 less than he was expecting in his account.

They took the money about a week ago I think so it might be worth checking your account.

As for me I pre-ordered my Day One Xbox from Game complete with free FIFA14 and also pre-ordered COD Ghosts, that arrived last week which means I get to sit and look at the box for a week haha.

They took my money straight away 3 months ago! It was a shock, but actually I kinda feel like I'm getting a free console now </manmaths>

Ah well at first my mate didn't twig what was going on but he gave them a ring just to check, he said they were quite helpful, it might just be a good idea to give them a call and make sure its being dispatched.

Take a suitable bag or park outside. Walking round with a large GAME carrier bag at midnight would make me nervous.

The delivery of my Xbox one will be when I see one at a shop for sale on th shelf. I feel I can manage to wait until them. Will report back with excitement when I see one in the shelf. If it's after Christmas then great, if not then no issues

Walking around with something that says Xbox would make me nervous any time of the day wink.

I'll park fairly close. Still a 5 minute walk. Plenty of people about usually, and there are likely to be quite a lot doing the same.
