I think Zavvi and HMV are still taking orders for the Limited Edition at £60.

Other than that try Woolies, Argos, WH Smith or PC World on Launch morning.

I didn't fancy pre-ordering so will have a look around on launch day.

Just walk into a shop and pick it up, it will be quite easy to find.

All the 24 hour supermarkets in ******* that I have called don't have enough copies to fill their pre-orders and put copies on the shelves. A couple said it would be worth ringing back on Monday as they are trying to get more stock to put on the shelves at midnight, but don't know how many they can get at the moment... I'm going to somewhere like Woolworths that don't take pre-orders so should have at least a couple of copies, I hope.

Picked up a wii fit for the wife this morning in morrisons i asked about GTA4 whilst i was there, they're only getting 5 copies per console. to put that into perspective they had 48 wii fits, they would'nt let me reserve a copy so a least all 10 should be for sale first thing

Right, the most anticipated game release for the last 10 years, did you ever try and get a nintendo wii when they first came out??

Not on launch day it won't. I went into my local Game last night and they have sold out and will not have any on Tuesday that haven't been pre-ordered. I don't like pre-ordering as I disagree with the principle of having to reserve things in advance. I'm more of an impulse buyer and will usually only decide to buy something a few seconds before handing the money over.

I'll be making a trip to Woolworths and WH Smiths on Tues. morning. Or rather, my girlfriend will, as I'll be at work biggrin

Vice City, San Andreas I had no problem picking them up on day of release. And the Wii is a console, therefore harder to find than a game.

Well, we'll see, I think you may be in for a surprise.

(and he's talking about Wii Fit, the exercise game not the console)
