I had a gamestop pre-order and went up there and got my money back just incase the city is shut down tomorrow. I wanted a box and the 25 cars, but I think everyone including myself and gamestop workers are not going anywhere tomorrow.

You aren't the only one... Pretty nasty weather...
Edit
4:07AM and installation finally over. Turned it on, and 1.2gb 9min update..
Then.. then I can drive... but all I want to do now is sleep. I'll probably sleep till noon. Either that or play till noon and then sleep till 8pm. Great my sleep is all screwed up now. Thanks PD, for a ridiculous and extremely long download and install process. :-/

Well after all that nonsense.. Just played a while with controller. Gotta say it was worth it. I'm fairly impressed with the game in general. Now hooking up CSR wheel/ CSR Elite pedals.. Should be fun!
Point is I think it's worth the hassle.. and game seems fast and I am thinking maybe it would be faster than if I bought it retail disk. Can't say yet without head to head comparison, but it is faster than GT5 ever was, that's for sure. Everything is snappy with my 500GB WD Black 7200 rpm internal drive. Glad I went with download version.

Due to me not checking my settings , i now have this problem. So all i can do is sit and wait until they either draw funds from my card or cancel the pre-order.

The thing is you don't notice anything wrong until you check your email ...except for the game not working when it's supposed to.

I downloaded it and installed it last night and it's still telling me it's unplayable before the start date!!! What's the deal with that?!!
FYI my experience with download and install speeds with the standard 250gb hdd that came with my PS3 slim 2 was a little better than I expected so don't let the SSD guys scare you into thinking you should buy the disc version unless you pony up for solid state 
I'm sure SSD is faster, but GT6 loads and plays sooooooo much faster than GT5 so far that I can't imagine it would be THAT much better with an SSD. To quantify, I was able to download and install 1.01 and play the opening movie, intro race, buy the Fit and win the first two novice races in less than 30 mins before work this morning. At no point did I have to stress about loading times.

Download to my ssd took like 90 minutes and the install about 30. Then the 1.01 update took another 10 minutes. Anyone else get up at 4am just to get the download and install done so it's ready to play when you get home from work?

About 1h54m to download; 2h26m to install; 11m to download the patch; 19m to install the patch.
Then the game starts, and it downloads another "update" in-game (as opposed to a patch to the game itself). That took another 2.5m to download and install.
Start to finish: about 4h55m.

Absolutely correct. Even though i love the ssd, my huge gripe with gt5s load times are gone. Its a much better interface, and is seamless (especially compared to gt5) ! Im sure without the ssd it would be completely fine...

I feel rather ripped off from Game.
I stupidly presumed having bought the special edition of GT5 with the Apex booklet that buying the Anniversary Edition of GT6 with "• Apex II, a brand new updated version of the Apex game guide." would mean another book.
There is no book.
EDIT - sorry wrong place to moan.
