Does anyone know if Game is opening tonight at 12am for the launch of COD 5 ?

If so will this be every branch or just selected locations ?


Cheers

Tesco is your best bet, get there early about 11.40 if you need a copy, there will be plenty of people there to try and get a copy.

I however will not, still not had chance to play GOW2 much yet.

I've found they still get them, but you have to ask at the customer services desk at the ones round here, they don't advertise they've got them.

Won't be picking COD5 up yet though I don't think, want to play 4 some more first and at least get the missions done if nowt else.

The Tesco's near me is one of the largest in the country and thier customer services manager has said that as a company they no longer get the games early, instead they get them in the 4am delivery on the morning of release.
Guess your shop is the exception as Polarbert found the same thing as me at his nearest Tesco's.

me too. i want top level on the online play.
COD5 seems to be too similar to cod4, just set in WW2 though.

Cod 5 is very very good quite hard to get to grips with but very good.

Played it all yesterday afternoon, the some of the maps are MASSIVE, there is no where to camp and the vehicles like tanks are a very good feature.

Went to Asda last night and got it for £27, They had 100 Xbox copies the 40 PS3

Like a huge geek I went to ASDA in the early hours to get it, and was shocked to find a queue 150 strong! Got a copy after 40 mins, but only played for 20mins before bed called at 2am. Very good though. If you like COD4, buy it, for £27 you can't go wrong!

Early reports seem to indicate it's much of the same but very very good with a few new features.

I might cave in and get it over the weekend hehe

If you paid £8 for the map pack for COD 4.....Then £27 for an entire new game and 13 new multiplayer maps + 4 player Co-op and the Nazi zombie bonus game is a bargain......get to asda today.

Bugger! Was supposed to be getting this a few days earlier but the girl in my office has been off sick for a few days and i don't know were it is. Damn! Oh well, i did buy FallOut3 and that new warcraft expansion this week to keep my entertained.
