Play has finally got them up.

£17.99 for standard
£39.99 for CE

If the NF CE is anything like the Factions CE, then the extra £20 is a rip off imho.

Factions CE i dont think was a Rip off but the game was

but i liked the artbook plus got to have one of them flying pets

dint i read somewhere that was some sort of dance emote for Nightfall CE? i may be wrong or maybe it was just rumours.

edit amazon CE at £39.99 link http://www.amazon.co.uk/Guild-Wars-N...463033?ie=UTF8

think GAME in shop has it for 39.99 and i bought the pre-release for £2 so i can get it for the same price in shop.. hopefully it will go down a bit more if i can get it under £35 i might consider it

sadsack · Oct 12, 2006, 12:41 PM // 12:41

my only problem with ordering online is that i don't know if you would get the game on the day of release, or if the game would be dispatched on the release date. Obviously it hardly matters because it's only one or a couple of days, but if you can get it in a shop for the same price, I might just go out and buy it on the 27th

Most Online stores will say if you can perorder this item and play on the day or release eg. gameplay.co.uk etc.. i am pretty sure if u buy from play.com you will not get this item and play the same day the game is release (at least i never did) but this doest bother me i can wait a few days, after all i have 6 months until the next one

. And because most release on a Thursday/Friday there is not enough time to get to you, that’s why on most of this places you pay extra to get a quick next day delivery but play.com don’t charge for delivery its all included.

I normally get my new called released games/DVDs on a Tuesday is they were released on a Thursday /Friday, but this all depends what part of the country you live and how Postal services is run etc… again the way I look at it, small price to pay for cheaper prices and ripoff Company’s.

This is just me I sort have a vendetta against GAME and its way of training staff cos its looks like they advert “if you dumb you can work here” and if you read this and work for GAME get out before they turn you into one

So saying that I don’t buy anything from GAME. GAME shop is rip-off and if any American reads this, GAME = EB same crappy company.
Bad name made them change lol

keep posting your findings i am still looking for a place that sells CE at £32

j/k

Im tempted to go for Play.com because of the price but with Factions i ordered and watched my delivery progress right up until the day before release and when it didnt say it was "in transit" I called them up and they didnt have the stock. So because I wanted to play over the weekend I cancelled my order and went the shops instead.

Worried it might happen again...

Tachyon · Oct 13, 2006, 12:32 PM // 12:32

At last! I ordered from play.com yesterday. I've never had a problem with them, be it delivery, damaged goods or anything else. I highly recommend them if anyone is thinking of pre-ordering and hasn't yet.

play.com always 17.99 for a standard edition - and they are the most reliable in the land so i'll get it with them

blastm · Oct 14, 2006, 02:45 PM // 14:45

I highly recommend play.com too

as the game is released on friday, you won't be able to play the first WE, and they won't give you a pre-order bonus key, but they'r cheap and reliable.

Girthmeister · Oct 16, 2006, 11:52 AM // 11:52

Play.com sent me a German copy of Prophecies when I ordered it earlier this year, so I'll try Sendit this time

I assume by WE you mean WeekEnd.

Every time i have orderd a game before release no matter where from, they always post them a day earlier then release so you get it at your door for release day.
I imagine most shops will have them in early next week but wont ship until thursday, and put on display friday.

play.com is located in jersey, so it isn't exactly UK mainland. (and that explain why it's so cheap)
I live in france, so I don't know about their UK customers, but when i ordered prophecies and faction from them, they shipped it the day of the release, not one day earlier. when they mail me a game on friday, i usualy get it by tursday or wednesday. then again, it might be quicker for UK residents.

It’s the same for the UK I can tell you that and like I have said above I normally get it on Tuesday or Wednesday when I order from play.com

I don’t see a problem if I am after the standard version and cant wait 1extra week etc. then I go to the shop or buy from gamplay.co.uk were u get charged extra for delivery, so I no longer pay £17.99 I pay max £29.99 inc p&p. And with the money that I will save I have pre-order BF2142 for £20

again don’t mind waiting 1week or so for the arrival

But because I am a cheap ass,

I pay cheap and will not mind waiting 1week. The game will not end after 1 week

, the problem is when you pay cheap and at the same want to get the game for the release day. (thats not going to happen, ithink)

I have never order anything from sendit.com but I would find it really amazing if they shipped any quicker than play.com both company are base in the same place “Jersey “ and only send items "*Monday-Friday: not applicable over weekend hours." Like play.com

But I may give them a try this time after all they are a few pennies cheaper than play.com.
