Got a letter from SONY this morning. The letter explained that the 'Next' letter i receive will be for me to pick up my PS2!!!!

Not sure what to make of that.!

NeilR

Got a free book as well.



gregh 14 November 2000 04:48 PM

I got that one last week with the blue book, then this Monday I got a letter from Dixons direct asking for final payment, to choose my games and saying that my PS2 will be with me 'soon'.

cheers,

Gregt

blimey, they want your money upfront (all of it?) and cant give u an exact date http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

mattski 15 November 2000 08:59 PM

I got one yesterday saying it has been shipped to game and will be ready to pick up on the 24th...

Did your letter say payment upfront aswell, as i've also ordered mine from game but still no letter http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif and im going to be very pee'd if i have to pay before i pick up.

no, apparently I just have to pay the balance on the day, I put a £25 deposit on it.

Richard Gledhill 15 November 2000 10:09 PM

I've just got a letter from Electronics Boutique saying mine will be shipped on 23rd November, next day delivery http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Can't wait...

Richard

mattski 15 November 2000 10:13 PM

what games are you guys giong to be getting?

Mr.Cookie 15 November 2000 10:37 PM

Anything thats out already got a demo disc just no PSX2 to play them on. What really made me laff was seeing a game on sale already in game.

mattski 15 November 2000 10:46 PM

all I want is Grand Turismo 2000 and some
matchsticks to keep my eyes open.

Shame they cancelled Ferrari 355 Challenge http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

Mr.Cookie 15 November 2000 10:51 PM

Expected March 2001 but will have less cars than GT2 and will be called GT3 now there was apparently some arguing over the name.

Si

NeilR 16 November 2000 02:24 PM

Typical,

I pre-order on the 7th Oct (pre-order day) and yet im lagging behind some of you guys.

Games to buy,,,,,, TimeSplitters and SSX are looking favorite at the moment.

Im getting Driver2 soon so that'll be played on PS2.

gregh 16 November 2000 04:36 PM

Got the call from Dixons Direct, should be with me on Friday 24th

Games I'm getting

SSX
Timesplitters
Ridge Racer V

Now anyone know if I can get a convertor to make my PC steering wheel work with the PS2?

Greg

sunilp 16 November 2000 07:11 PM

No letters for me yet?

Mr.Cookie 16 November 2000 07:18 PM

Me neither Sunil http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif

NeilR 17 November 2000 09:28 AM

I shall be taking a plain bag ( Mother in Law? ) to the shop when i pick it up. I heard that in Japan muggers robbed PS2's off people after they picked theirs up.

No blood and guts feature in TimeSplitters which is a shame. (PS Doom still one of my favorites and there is plenty of Claret in that http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif )

One of the current Playstation magazines comes with a DVD with 1 hour video trailers of PS2 games in action.

NeilR

Scrappy2 17 November 2000 09:30 AM

Me neither, pre-ordered on the first day from a Sony Centre, thought I'd be safe with that, but still no letter...

NeilR 17 November 2000 03:14 PM

Just been checking out some of the UK PS2 BBS's.

I don't believe it!!!! There are people out there who Pre-Ordered their PS2's one, two or more weeks after the first day and they've had their letters confirming Nov 24th delivery.

Thats it, im throwing my toys outta this pram! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/mad.gif

NeilR

Richard Gledhill 17 November 2000 03:21 PM

Yeah, well I can beat that http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif I just got an e-mail today from Electronics Boutique informing me my order was about to be despatched today!

Don't believe them mind... bet they're just taking the money today, and it'll turn up next Friday, as they said in their e-mail a couple of days ago.

Mind you, what's really annoying is that my brother has been developing on one of these things for the last 6 months http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif Typical!

Richard

NeilR 17 November 2000 03:50 PM

Ignore previous message,

Just got a call.... PS2 ready for pickup on the 24th.......

I pre-ordered my PS2 on the 7th Sept.

My local shop entered my details on the Sony internet site.

They have been told that although they have pre-register 82.

They will only get 21 units.

I am 6 outside the 21 units.

Boy am I P@*!?d off.

Sony rearrange this well known saying:

couldn't organise brewery we a P@*! up in.

sunilp 18 November 2000 11:57 AM

NeilR 21 November 2000 08:55 AM

So, What games to get.

Timesplitters is a definate. SSX is a strong possibility...... but what about Smugglers Run?

Maybe i'll just get TSplitters and await the second batch of games..... argh! can't decide

Three days to go !!!!!

NeilR


mattski 21 November 2000 09:39 AM

is that the silver-wheeled Pete Lewis who bats for the other side? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

sunilp 21 November 2000 08:01 PM

yep, the only and hugely...........

So, what games are worth buying then on Friday?

TimD 22 November 2000 09:28 AM

There seem to be limitless permutations.

Yesterday I received the "You will have it before Christmas" letter, but didn't get the "blue book" that some people have received when they got that letter...
