Although the game is not available to buy in the UK until Friday 19th June 2009, you can order it today from ShopTo and it will be guaranteed with you Tomorrow for £32.99 Delivered.

I have used these guys loads of times in the past and as long as you order today before 5pm you will get it next day guaranteed by Recorded Delivery.

They are based in England and not in Jersey like most DVD companies who like to hide in TAX free regions, so when they ship it's a lot faster.

I ordered this morning as I noticed they had it in stock and I just got a text saying it had now been shipped and will be with me tomorrow 1 day before official release day in the UK.

What you waiting for order it now……!!!!

Woo! Hoo! mine has turned up today, 1 day before the official release date as promised.

Going to give it a whirl in a bit after dinner. :-)

I got mine today too from play.com, but stuck at work. I was going to use shopTo but wasn't sure about the site and didn't want to trust my first purchase to be such a long awaited game incase of problems. Clearly though, as you received yours, it would have been fine.

Most online sites deliver before or on the release date now, I just know I can reply on play.

I had mine originally pre-ordered with LoveFilm who are usually very good, but there estimated dispatch date was Friday so I don't think I would of got it until middle of next week.

I'm so excited, people at work just did not get it when I told them how excited I was to go home and play this. lol.

Exactly the same here mate, lol! I was so hyped when I got the call from my GF to say it arrived and the people at work just don't get it at all. Only a couple of hours to go now!

Play.com only dispatched it yesterday and I was concerned as never have I received an item from play in 24 hours, always takes atleast 2 days as it comes from Jersey. I usually don't mind as it's cheaper, but this time it wasn't cheaper, shopTo was £7 less. I get a free t-shirt I won't wear atleast!

Play.com usually take around 3 day's for me on average and I know that I would rather be playing the game over the weekend rather than getting it next week and trying to find the time to have a good go on it.

Hold in there, not long to go.

Going to crank the volume up on mine in 5.1 DTS (100 watts per channel) + 100 Watt Sub, better make sure my controller is charged up.

First post, but here goes: I got mine today! I've played a nice chunk of it and it's massive fun. That said, I'm disappointed by the fact that it's so much worse on PS3 than 360.

You can see that it's a good looking game at its core (nice effects, etc), but it's a blurry, low res port on PS3, to be honest - You can tell that it's upscaled from a resolution not even close to HD. It's great fun though, and I'll definitely be getting hold of a 360 copy as soon as I'm able to in order to enjoy it in proper high definition.

I just have the mixed emotions of really enjoying it and being able to recommend it as a game (it's a dream for a GB fan, frankly), but also knowing that there is a considerably better looking version that I couldn't have on release day due to the European publishing situation. For all the flaws of this version, I'm still itching to get back to it as soon as I can, which says a lot.

Got mine today from play.com to with my free White T-shirt (ghostbusters logo on the front with “Ghostbusters: The Video Game” written underneath!)

Love it so far, found the Golems to be a bit of a pain in the ass to deal with though!

Overall, it really is a great game.

Was suprised when i got home, as it usually takes 2 days for play to deliver to me….the only other time I've had a 24 hours or less delivery was with fifa 09 on release date……ordered it at mid-day and got it 4 hours later
