With none official cause being provided, followers are left to invest. Was it a case of GAME providing extra items than they had been allotted? Was there a glitch within the system? Sadly we do not know.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All that mentioned, and as unlikely because it appears, hopefully GAME are in a position to honour all of their pre-orders \u2013 and get them within the palms of gamers on day-one.
