Forums - Sony Discussion - Little Big Planet delayed in Europe or pre-orders all gone?

A member of the official Playstation forums has posted up that Tesco has e-mailed him to state that his order for LittlebigPlanet has been delayed as the availability of the game has changed. They have reportedly put the estimated dispatch date at Friday November 14th 2008.

Discuss.

 

Apologies if posted already.

Strange. Really strange.



This is strange because Tesco is in the UK is it not?

Bugrimmar picked up the game this week and he lives in the UK so how is there a delay?

Is it possible LBP pre-orders are all full?

I hope they are full, heh. And I don't think Bugrimmar is from the UK.



Bugrimmar is from the Filipines, in Asia, I think.

^ His profile say "United Kingdom". That is why I assumed.

Either way, the important fact here is that we have not heard this until now, this person ordered the game yesterday. People on other sites have said they recieved no such e-mail yet, whether it be from Play, Game, Tesco (earlier pre-orders), etc...

I guess we will find out when the sales data arrives.
