Ah, the ordeal of pre-ordering a console.

As of today, I am officially on the 'waiting list' for a vital missing organ - yes, I mean the Nintendo Wii. After a small trip to Lancaster city centre, I crept back on the bus on my way to the University with a Pre-Order slip tucked neatly into my wallet.

Now, while I appreciate that pre-orders are necessary to get your foot in line, I can't help but be pissed off at the fact that a £20 deposit has been taken out of my precious bank account and all I have to show for it is a piece of paper telling me that £20 has been taken out of my precious bank account.

Sigh.

Anyway. If anyone is around the Lancaster city centre at, ooh, 12 midnight December 8th, I'll be at GameStation.

Oh - and for the 1 of you expecting a HL2: Episode One review, I simply can't be arsed.
