    I got 2 copies like quite a few people on here. I already offered my spare copy to somebody else on another thread but I think he finally got one. So since you were the first poster here you can have it if you want when you are absolutely sure that your aren't getting one, because I definitely don't need 2. I haven't even been able to watch the whole thing yet. Terrible movie :p .

    its a load of crap, why bother telling us we're going to get a copy. they should at least put up a statement on their website and apolagise for saying we were going to get the blu ray. obviously i still havent got mine yet and registered on launch day

    it wasn't "first come, first served". it was a lottery done by the system... people ended up with 2 copies because the system did 2 passes on the list without discarding the people who already "won"...

    i don't know why this is a huge issue. it's a freebie that was never guarinteed to you. there was never a promise made by sony to give you anything for free, so they never went to rectify the problem once it was found. the idea being that people would sign up, maybe get a free brd, and forget about it. if one arrived then yay, otherwise so what?

    the movie isn't even that amazing anyway, and you can't trade it in anywhere because it has no barcode...

    It was meant to be the first 500,000 people, it was clearly stated to be that way! I registered on launce day and got mine, I think its quite good actually!

    but it was never guarinteed to the first 500k. and sony never rectified the issue because in reality, without people on this board saying "i signed up yesterday and got 17" you'd have no clue whatsoever if you were in the first 500k to sign up.

    Not true PM, we did get letters saying we would receive a copy within 40days or so.

    Anyone have a playstation ireland email address? Still no sign of Casino Royale even though i registered it at launch and got the email on the 5th of April confirming my free copy of Casino Royale.

    "Thank you for registering for PLAYSTATION®Network.
    PLAYSTATION Network opens the door to a new world of exciting entertainment opportunities.

    Being one of the first to register you have qualified for a free Blu-ray Disc™ of Casino Royale™. We will aim to deliver your disc within 45 days of a qualifying registration on the PLAYSTATION Network"


    Now i know its a **** movie but thats not the point, they promised a movie and I've never received it. The home address I used is fine.

    I thought there was only a limited amount. Maybe they ran out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 854 ✭✭✭mayto


    well no suprise there seeing as most ppl who got the movie got two

    well i found an email address from one of their spam emails so no harm in emailing them, but doubt they'll bother replying

    I just received a copy of Casino Royale in the post today and I never got an email saying I would get one. Plus I only signed up for the Playstation network on the 5th of July. Very unexpected.
