Cheers for that! Who would you recommend to order from though? o.0 Never ordered with the hut and people seem to have received poorly packed parcels from Zavvi...

Also, do they take the money for preorders, straight away or before they dispatch?

TheHut is the cousin company of Zavvi

lol Fair enough. I didn't know! So what are you saying? The packing is equally as bad for both? lol

It says it at the bottom of the page too! XD Feel like a right dumbass!! XD

If money is not an issue, Amazon is your best bet.

As matrix said, Zavvi and the hut are the same company. The £12 saving over Amazon however has made the choice harder. Personally I would go with the Hut and risk it if your in UK. if outside avoid them if possible.

I can't imagine this one selling out though, The game is completely unheard of in the UK for consoles anyway.

I haven't really had a horrifying experience with Zavvi myself, but I'm reluctant in ordering heavy CE's from them since the MGS debacle I normally receive my CE's from them in cardboard boxes in the past...haven't ordered anything big from them in a while.

As for thehut, I've mainly order standard size games and clothing...several items of my orders never turned up [to which I got a refund] and many took literally a month of more to arrive!

Thanks guys! ^o^ I went for Zavvi in the end. I'll take my chances with it and if it comes damaged, I'll just kick up a fuss with them. As you said, it's not likely to be a sell out so they might have extras and exchange it for meh! lol

Unfortunately money is a bit of an issue at the moment, but hopefully won't be come the release of this. We'll see! lol

I loved the first Risen and I'm glad there's a console CE for it! ^o^

Btw, Amazon is showing as 69.99... o.0

LOL - It looks like Amazon has corrected the price to RRP.

If anyone wants this edition I can't imagine the hut keeping the price the same for long, It's likely a mis-price.

I changed my preorder from HMV to Zavvi, since it's £15 cheaper, and I'm usually lucky with my packages from Zavvi... Let's hope that stays the same! xx

[Matrix6]

lol, I just noticed that Zavvi/thehut has altered their price to £69.99 from £39.95 [I'm guessing they originally erroneously priced it??] Well done to those who got it cheaper!

I just found that the X360 version is mis-prices at Sendit for just £38.89

Sadly PS3 version is £70.
