Halo 3: ODST

[Kevvy Metal]

Shopto won't accept my new card.

According to the guy on the phone, this is a wide spread thing with all new cards.

FFS!!! why now!

[Hitcher]

For those who ordered from Lovefilm, mine was despatched yesterday and has just popped through the letterbox - I'm rather excited

Did you get a Johnson code?

I've given up with ShopTo cause' of this very reason. I get stuff delivered to work usually but can't anymore due to their policy of the first two orders going to the billing address, even though I've been using them for a while.

Gone back to using Gameplay.

[Mars]

HELL YEAH - what with the 3-5 day expectation and the postal strikes I was thinking next week but this bodes well

Yeah man, exact same shit with me!

I tried to add new card for Batman, told me no and won't deliver to work.

I've been using them for years! there is no one home so that's no fucking use.

Gameplay it is!

bye bye shopto.

[Bleeders]

Gameplay are a quid or two more expensive, but I'll take that on the chin if it means I can get my games delivered to work.

You can get them delivered to your home too as they don't send them recorded delivery. This saves you from the post room bore who wants to engage you for 45 minutes talking about some random JRPG they're currently trawling through.

I highly doubt that Gameplay will get ODST to anyone before Tuesday though. All they are doing now is processing the orders and taking payment but they won't actually dispatch them until Monday, they always do this with big games.

My postie usually just puts my shopto stuff through the door. If I was dishonest I could claim I never got it, but I am not.

[SteveH]

Did you get a Johnson code?

No. Had to go and google what a Johnson code was - and I feel short changed now

[Fletch]

Pretty much all sites will only deliver to the address associated with the card for the first order on that card.

Does the co-op campaign have infinite respawn like Halo 3? or do you revive your fellow squad mates like ala Gears of War. The former is a bit of a deal breaker as far as a good co-op mode is concerned.

Could anyone give me an answer? I don't really want to watch any preview videos as I'm going into this fresh...

[DHMunky]

ordered mine from Tesco and was dispatched yesterday, delivered today!

[KriessG]

I'm going to bug my local Game and HMV to sell me this today. I know the managers and staff but I am not too hopeful.

[Harsin]

Ordered from Lidl half an hour ago and it's just arrived, but unfortunately they sent me a copy of Halo Reach by mistake.

very good

[Rockboy]

I'm hoping, praying and probably dreaming that ShopTo are going to post my game on Friday and I'll get it Saturday for a big weekend session.

Come on ShopTo, don't let me down....

ShopTo order now processing! Back of the net!

[Guest]

Right, enough of the order status posts, I want to know what it's like from those who have it...

[Massive Invisible Dog]

It's a bit disappointing, especially towards the end when you get the S.P.A.R.T.A.N. suit.

oh ffs!!

(I am happy for u.)

If this is true, it's a bit of a spoiler isn't it?

[Poop who?]

Just sit tight you ginger spaz. You're almost there!

[Massive Invisible Dog]

If this is true, it's a bit of a spoiler isn't it?

Not as big a spoiler as where you get it. Here's a hint: it's shaped like a Polo.

Your ODST man gets to wear a Spartan suit on another Halo?

heh.

[SteveH]

I didn't play Halo 3 in HD so can't make a direct comparison, but fuck this is an ugly game. Playing on a 1080p set and it is full of jaggies.

[Jamie John]

How come there aren't any reviews of this yet if it's out so soon? I would have thought IGN and GS' would have been up at least.

[Podge]

The embargo is tomorrow so expect to see loads of reviews over the weekend.

[Massive Invisible Dog]

heh.

It's not really a Spartan suit, it's a S.P.A.R.T.A.N suit. "Special Purpose Armour - Recon Team Action Node" I think it stood for, it's more stealth based but it allows you to dual wield.

[Transient Curse]

you ginger spaz.

I think that could really take off.

[Spartan]
