    Nope, we've still been told a couple should be coming out in the new year (from what we've been told at GAME), and we've still got a release schedle for it.

    Picked up tons in Woolies, Exeter today only to get to the till and find they were all out of stock, despite appearing to have tons of 'stock' on the shelves!
    My poor son queued for 10 minutes in the Milton Keynes Woolies on Saturday only to be told the Xbox game wasn't in stock. They really are donkeys sometimes.

    I used route 1, went straight to the checkout, 'what xbox games have you got in your drawers' (whey hey) "these sir", "i'll have that, that & that, cheers"..... jobs a goodun !

    *sigh*

    My order from woolies for DVD remotes has been cancelled and my local store has sold out.

    If anyone can pick me up 3 (I have 3 xboxes) I would pay postage, etc and be eternally grateful.
  • I had the last one in the Poole branch.

    Went to my woolies today and they had no xbox games at all apart from the 360 games, was gutted as thought some of these would have made good stocking fillers, they look like a great price, might try a different woolies tomorrow if there is any left.

    Point taken. I thought that I already had, but I have recified the situation now.

    Me too, they had numerous copies of games on the shelf and when I went to the counter I got the same rubbish story. Cretins
  • Huge thanks for this. Had spent hours on ebay trying to find a Dvd remote that didn't ship from Hong Kong! Quick call to Woollies Boscombe and they put the last one by for me! They were surprised when it scanned for a fiver!

    No games on display, but the SA rummaged in the drawer and got me :

    Lego Star Wars £2.50
    Sonic Riders £5.00

    She had quite a few others, but they were mostly age 16+. Might be worth a trip for someone as she seemed to have quite a few. She mentioned Prince of Persia, Halo and a football one amongst others- sorry to be vague.

    BTW, Woollies Southbourne didn't have anything if it saves someone a trip.
