Preorders?

Does anyone know if you can preorder this anywhere? My brother wants to get one and was asking me, but I have no clue if anyone is offering preorders?

Thanks

Re: Preorders?

Most of the preorders are over, you may always stick up on a morning of a store that did not accept any preorders at all.

Re: Preorders?

I hate the preorder system.

Would anyone queue up all night to buy a new Hoover or washing machine?

Most of them end up in the hands of money grubbing barstewards who sell it on Ebay for 3 times the price.

Re: Preorders?

I believe Amazon UK aren't doing pre-orders yet, but if you want one early, get on there the minute the release date is finally announced. The site will be flooded, but thats your best bet, I reckon. Or Play.co.uk too...

As much as I love Amazon for books etc. They totally screwed up the 360 lauch preorders that I doubt i'd trust them.

I'm in no rush. I've never prordered a console and prefer to wait until the silly season finishes and pick up one when they are more available.

I always get one pretty quick. Got the 360 before Xmas last year and picked up a Wii just after new year.

If i'm getting a PS3, I'll wait until something decent is released.

Besides with the Lauch being after Xmas I don't think there will be the huge rush as there isn't a holiday for parents to go daft about.

Re: Preorders?

Yeah, the only console I ever bought at launch was the PSP, because the local Game shop messed up it's pre-orders, and had loads spare. I don't bother with pre-orders either.
