FIFA 12 help, please!

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Hi Guys,

My Son has asked me to queue for a copy of FIFA 12 on Friday evening (11.45 p.m.) Worthing Game opens apparently.

Now as he's 8 I don't really want to send him there but is there any real benefit, i.e. does he get a special edition or anything or is it the same game I could get at 9 a.m. the next morning? Is it likely to sell out on Friday night?

That is all, thanks,

Tim

It goes on sale at Game midnight tonight, so Friday morning not Friday night. Game have 2 editions, normal and ultimate. Ultimate is preorder only I believe and has bonus stuff for ultimate team mode. I'd be stunned if it sold out tonight

I would have thought they'd have enough copies so it won't sell out, but if you want to make sure it might be worth popping over there today to get a last minute pre order, then they'll put one aside for you!

 

[ees complicated no?]

ultimate and special ed have sold out everywhere but the normal ed ition you be able to get hold of easy

We've just ordered the normal one as my son said it was a waste of money getting the the ultimate/special edition. It only really gives you any add on if you play ultimate team a lot with extra cards etc.

If you play ultimate team get the special edition. Dont bother going to game, order before 5:30 this evening and you will get it tomorrow morning from these guys:
FIFA 12 Special Edition - Microsoft Xbox 360 - ShopTo.Net
Decent price as well.

Just seen on there "This item is available for Fast Dispatch and will normally be dispatched within 5 minutes of completing the checkout process!"

No, never understood why people queue at silly hours for a game when you can get it quicker if you pre-order online. Even if you order now what's the harm in getting it a day or 2 later?

I guess if you are 8 it matters to have it at the same time as all your friends.

I'm going to get it on my way home at 9am tomorrow morning, plenty of shops in Brighton that sell it (GAME x2, gamestation, argos?, HMV, even Asda at hollingbury/marina)

I shall be popping into my local Tomorrow's World tonight. They haven't let me down (the day before release) in a couple of years!

I work there when I'm not at Uni, they will indeed have it in early as normal.

Thanks for all the advice guys, very much appreciated.

Tomorrow at 9 for me.

 

[shaolinpunk]

Work is pretty quiet today so I just popped round the corner to Game. Now just counting down til 12.30, as I work half days on Fridays

 

[The_Real_SussexSeagull123]

whats your opinion on the game then?

 

[BHAFC_Pandapops]

i havent got it yet, im f***ing jealous xD im skint, because my dosh went on ipswich first, fifa next week

 

[Westdene Wonder]

Plenty of copies available this afternoon in Brighton, its plain nonsense to go to extreme lenghts to obtain it at a late hour on the first day,because it would be too late to play it

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Oh, I see, alas we are in the sticks and thought midnight launch meant it would be launched at midnight, what a fool I am!
