Im pre ordering the regular edition from GAME. I've pre ordered LBP2 from there and that came 2 days early, MW2 and that came 1 day early and God Of War 3 came 2 days early too.

I think the Hardened Edition "prizes" are just balls. And also you get the intel pack from GAME which comes with the Brady mini strategy guide (looks good :P), British Forces Avatar/Theme (seriously? WTF?) and a top secret item (wupee, hopefully something good)

If there is a 3rd party, or family owned movie/game store, if they are selling Mw3, you can talk to the owner or manager to try and buy a copy early. Bribe them if you have to.
Or find somebody who works at a game store and get them to sneak it to you if possible.

Can someone tell me if my logic is correct

If you get the Hardened edition you get a year subscription of COD Elite...

Thought I read somewhere that if you are a COD Elite member you get DLC map packs free...

So then this would mean if you buy the Hardened edition, you will get all the DLCs free since you have COD Elite?

Preordering from GAME has a high chance of getting the game early, however it may be only one day early, however there have been instances where people get their game from GAME on Thursday, when the released was meant to be the following Tuesday.

I never pay £40+ for a game, so I always get my games at midnight from Asda, I've been doing so for the past 2 years.

ive been doing the same, queueing up at asda for midnight release. But by the time you get home there are already people at high levels
They shouldnt start leaderboards till release date

Games used to do that, I remember when smash bros came out, the servers were down for people that had the game, and only went up on the games release date.

It's no problem for me as I play late in the day because of college, so by the time I'm online people are level 40

is on its way. It will not reach you early, this just means its being held ready for delivery on launch day.
