Did you end up going for that deal? If so, have you received your code yet for preload? I'm concerned that they might not send it out till the 29th on the day and then I won't get the hoonigan car pack. Thanks

Yeah went for it but not had anything through, just says:
“This product is a Pre-Order, it will be available here on or slightly before the release date of 29th September 2017.”
Holding out for the slightly before

I saw that the anticipated size of this game is ~100GB, no wonder it will be released a few days early to allow you a chance of downloading part of it for the *actual* release day.

Do you get the Hoonigan pack with the preorder from Amazon?

You'll receive it when your code for the game is delivered, which according to Amazon's site will be sent four days before release.

I'm pretty sure I paid circa £50 for this.
Pre ordered on the XB1 store, direct on my XBOX.

Idiot - why preorder digital games? It's not as if they are going to run out of stock.

Maybe he wanted the Hoonigan cars? :thinking:

Wow so you think it is OK to interact with people that way? From the way you have responded I know which one is the idiot. Oh and its not banter.

Maybe they wanted the preorder bonuses? Maybe they wanted to be able to preload the game so it’s ready to play on release day?
Physical games don’t run out of stock either. :wink:
Don’t get why people have problems with those who preorder games. It’s not your money and doesn’t affect you in anyway. Preordering physical games also tends to get you the game upon release for the cheapest price. Don’t preorder and pay more? No thanks. :kissing_heart:
Put a refund request in with Microsoft, mate. They’ll refund without any problems. :smile:

Ok, I’ll give you that one. After the previous games though, you can understand why that was undershipped :laughing:

Ah-you're "that guy".
Never mind, I'm sure being rude to strangers in an online forum helps those low self esteem issue of yours.
I preordered it, because I could and wanted to.
I had some cheap credit sitting in my account and wanted to ensure I got the games as soon as possible-which, in the case of digital, is midnight on release date.
Now, if you don't stop being rude to people, I'll tell your mummy and she'll take the laptop from your bedroom and dock your pocket money.

I loved Forza 4 but the series has gone backwards for me since then, you could understand it with 5 because it was a launch title for the Xbox One but 6 was the same. So many good features (Livery/Vinyl marketplace, multiplayer lobby features etc) stripped out and the single player is so basic compared to the competition now. It feels more like a glorified tech demo now than a complete game and half the features they hype up have been in other games for awhile now, much more interested in Project Cars 2 (not perfect but at least the developer has paid attention to feedback and improved on the last game)

I might have sounded a little harsh, but I just don't get preordering in this age of digital distribution - like I reeeeeally don't get it.
Each to his or her own of course. To me it just seems so ridiculously stupid that I forgot how to act nice and not call people idiots even if could be what I was thinking, so for that I am sorry.
But why? Whyyyy? To me it is as stupid as people praising games for having "easy achievements". Why does this matter to anyone - isn't it about playing the damn games for the experiences and not to brag with your easy-gotten achievements- it won't get you laid.
So much strangeness - I am getting too old for this "gaming thing" I think.

I tend to get xbox credit when its on special offer, and bank it into my Xbox account. They when the games I want become available for pre order I do just that, so I know exactly what credit I have left for other things. Simple really. I have Forza 7, Battlefront 2, Fifa 18 all bought and paid for. Simple really

Depends, no point pre-ordering digital games directly from the store such as PSN, XBox and Steam but from 3rd party sites such as Amazon and CDkey, etc the prices goes up towards release.
A few weeks back, COD:WW2 was £27.99 to preorder for the PC version from a popular CDkey website. Now the beta has come and gone they are now selling it for £32.99. I bet it be a while before is drops below £30 again. Same with Tekken 7.

Because it's at least £8 cheaper than it is anywhere else, and might not stay that way for long. Also they don't charge till release day, so option to cancel is there if it shows up cheaper somewhere else. It's about saving money (which is the purpose of this website).

Pre-ordering can save you up to 30% versus release day prices if you're buying from places like cd-keys (I'm mainly talking about PC games here, there aren't so many pre-order deals on console). Add that up over the course of a year and it more than makes up for the odd game that turned out bad.

Why no one is saying it is £37.85 @ Simply Games then? :worried:
But heat for the digital version mate. That is what I prefer on Xbox too.

Can't see any discussions about the play anywhere mate. All I can see is price. :P (Joking, I know! regardless, I am almost fully digital on Xbox exactly opposite what I do on PS4).

I'm concerned it wouldn't run too well, but looking at the recommended specs, I should be OK!

Heat added, great deal!
In other news - I used the £10 student discount on my Scorpio pre-order. Now down to £429.99. Few more codes before launch and I'll be happy.
I assumed postage over Prime discount. As I said, though. Cracking price. Heat added :smile:
