Yeah I asked and got the same so bought it off the website instead. People got GOW3 early so theres always a chance that it will arrive on the monday.

I tried gamestop in th square tallaght no joy so went home and pre-ordered it on they're website.
Checked with Game be for I left and they are doing the 'Intel edition'. Asked the lads in the shop if elite came with it, they couldn't give me a answer so I left.

Just got a call from HMV saying they wont be selling MW3 Hardened Ed and to collect my 5 quid deposit . Gamestop.ie still have copies for 360 in stock if like myself you've been let down by HMV.

The gent from HMV who called me this morning said that the Hardened edition would only be sold through Gamestop . I can't believe its only a month from launch and a lot of retailers still don't have a clue what version they'll have for sale.

Kells... · 11-10-2011 3:51pm

Got the call from Henry St in Dublin sad panda is sad.

Kylo Ren · 11-10-2011 3:59pm

Pre ordered my Hardened Edition 2 weeks ago with BF3 Special Edition and the normal Skyrim one.

So HMV are not getting it in lads? That is bad form taking pre orders for it as I'd say the majority of Gamestops have sold out by now.

Got a buddy to call into HMV there. They havent a clue what the story is with the HE whether its exclusive to Gamestop or not and they are continuing to accept pre-orders.

How can they still be accepting preorders if they don't know

Nuri Sahin · 11-10-2011 6:02pm

Not received a call from HMV myself.

I'v no idea. can anyone confirm they have recieved calls from HMV requesting they cancel their preorders. Im talking to an Activision support guy trying to figure out whats goin on.

I got the call about noon today from HMV Henry Street and was told that the HE would only be on sale from Gamestation and to collect my deposit.

MarkY91 · 11-10-2011 6:33pm

got the call today

..gamestop has no PS3 hardened editions according to the website, am i out of a hardened edition now?

CAPSLOCK2 · 11-10-2011 6:54pm

HMV rang me today and told me only Gamestop are selling the Hardened Edt in Ireland. Went into Gamestop earlier and pre-ordered it, it was a lucky job because they said today was the last day they were taking pre-orders.

.E_C_K_S. · 11-10-2011 7:11pm

Surely they can't take pre-orders for an edition that they will not end up not selling? Really pissed about this. Hope I can still get it now in GS but for 10 euro more:mad:

Nuri Sahin · 11-10-2011 7:35pm

Got the call.

Superb -_-

zero19 · 11-10-2011 8:12pm

Well that sucks.

Jet Black · 11-10-2011 8:30pm

Cancelled my hardened edition. Just going to wait til the release day and pick it up. Somewhere usually does a special for under 50. Looked at the dlc for the WaW, MW2 and BO and its all pretty boring. Nothing else really worth €100 for one game.

iMuse · 11-10-2011 9:00pm

That sucks for anyone who ordered with HMV, I would have aswell only theres none near me. Gamestop have the exclusive in Ireland so you could still buy from amazon.co.uk etc but won't get it on release. You will be able to buy an elite membership day 1 from xbox live or PSN so its no big loss anyway.

Thomasheen · 11-10-2011 9:08pm

I've actually caved in and decided to go all out and get elite and everything. I literally booked mine on gamestop yesterday so I must have got one of the last few

They did have extra copies though, it was available to order again on ps3 a week or two ago. They might make it available again so just keep an eye on their website.

I got the dreaded call from HMV yesterday, Rang my local Gamestop and enquired about availability of HE. I was told that they would estimate that they would be sold out in 48 hours. Went into town and picked up my deposit off HMV.
2 hours later I arrived at Gamestop's counter only to be told - guess what ????
Anyone ..anyone.....bueller....bueller ???

Yep, they've stopped taking Pre-Orders !!!!!

Soooooooo Angry right now....WTF ??????

The guy said that they hoped to be able to take orders again soon, but didnt know when..........
:mad::(:confused:

Me neither. Not decided yet if I even will pre-order. Chances of not getting one in London would be pretty slim (I hope :eek:)

MarkY91 · 12-10-2011 3:57pm

if anyone finds out if gamestop are taking ps3 pre-orders again please post here

Just got out of HMV there. Tryin to get them to clarify the situation. They just got an email lastnight sayin they are no longer taking preorders but said if you preordered early your order is secure (Kilkenny store). They are still saying its gamestop exclusive which isnt true according to Dan Amrich (oneofswords).

If it helps Gamestop Kilkenny are still taking preorders on the Xbox version. Be quick.

Buddy of mine just out of hmv. They are not taking preorders for the hardened edition anymore but they said similar to above. Gamestop Patrick street are still taking preorders for xbox. Sold out on ps3
