    Because they're bound to get both versions at the same time, and they should then go in the order of when preordered and the fact that every other time I have bought it, it has been dispatched by now.

    Didn't pre-order it as Skyrim got the better of me and I pre-ordered that instead

    MW3 looks really good, hopefully it will live up to my expectation!

    Game being one of the larger retailers is going to receive a shipment upwards of a 100,000 copies of the standard version, following this they then process all of the pre-orders for that edition of the game, then they move onto the hardened edition shipment which may even arrive the day after so it's not wasting space sitting around whilst they're processing all the preorders for the standard edition and shipping other games which have been purchased online.

    Even for a specific edition it won't be processed by order date, it'll be processed by location, so they'll do all the london preorders, then all of another city, because they need to send them out in batches to save money on courier costs.

    Of course not, it will only ever be something me and the hundreds of others that pre-ordered gears and got it a day late experience, it can't possibly happen to one of the biggest launches of the year no, I mean what was I thinking, the postal service will really put in the extra hours to make sure every single copy arrives to it's owner on time, no you'll all get it on release because GAME have never messed up before.

    Well people I know have it preordered and mine is still not dispatched. I don't even think I'm going to get it tuesday to be quite frank which surely destroys the point in a preorder and would mean me never buying anything from GAME in the near future.
