Game UK really lag behind with their game news, plus THQ.

I got the letter through the post today, some excerpts follow;

" Microsoft tells us that the premium box, the printed fate cards and the Hobbe figure are no longer available, which is frustrating for all of us."

also

"With Microsoft's support we've also taken £5 off the price of your limited edition Fable II pack, so now its only £44.99."


also they tell me my free download soundtrack is at http://sumthingdigital.com and click on the Fable II picture on the right hand side of the page.

Information needs to travel faster than Royal Mail nowadays i'm afraid, plus i've just realised I never got pub-games for free, bastards.

Anyway, on to other news.

I got a job a few weeks ago working for a company which distributes dvd's and games, of interest this includes THQ and blockbuster, so now I get to see all the neat shit that comes with them. Ok, THQ don't exactly make great games but at least blockbuster ships everything else.

If I see anything cool come through my grubby mitts i'll be sure to let people know. For example I do know that copies of the new WWE game will come in some places with an inflatable chair, t-shirts or a free Shawn Michaels DVD, so just look out for them.

hopefully I'll see something cooler soon.

They only just sent out letters about that? Odd. They emailed me the moment it happened -- literally about 2 or 3 weeks ago now. I guess their postal department is really behind. xD

Agreed with SLIQUE, I had an E-mail ages ago.

Can't agreed on the delayed postal service, I had a letter pop through from them the other week about saving money on Lego-Batman, arrived with me about a week before the launch.

Seems a bit wierd - I did used to get delayed stuff an age back, that was due to the fact I had signed up back when they wore the EB brand.
