This is how it usually works. Most US stores won't have it to tommorow. Seems the EU stores might have it because they had them in the back for at least a half week. And UBI overseas started shipping yesterday, and UBI US shipped yesterday. So if you ordered from UBI and overnighted it you should have it today no matter where you live.

All others have to wait until tommorow. Because places like EB Doesn't ship out of Warehouses to stores until today.

he is actually right sometimes you can pick up games on Tuesday. For instance In november (same store Im getting SHIV mind you) they had Medievil total war II on Tuesday.

Some games are just different then others. Bigger titles they take more serious. For instance When I preordered today at the store, they said they were only getting 3 copies of SHIV in Wend.

Technically there were a lot of planes flying. The squadrons of fighter jets had other business at hand.

Suggest you edit that. We don't take kindly to that sort of stuff in this forum. The game is not late. It ships today. Its simple.

It sucks some people get it today but that life. Suck it up.

EB Games made me wait until Wednesday for Oblivion when it was listed as a Tuesday release date. I was told then by the guy at EB that Wednesdays are new release days and that's pretty much been my experience.

The Gamestop closest to me told me that "IF" they get any copies at all it would probably only be one copy. I'm really starting to hate the way consoles are taking over the gaming market. :damn:

SteamWake 03-20-07 01:44 PM

EB Games website has read "Ships on 03/20/07" for quite some time.

The game is now listed in "new releases" and states "usually ships within 24 hours".

So Im assuming the 3/20 date is a "ships on" date. I know the local EB store here does not get there delivery (UPS) untill well after noon, sometimes not till after 3:00 pm.

To make some of you feel better anytime I ever pre ordered From EB games and overnighted the game I got the game before I got the Email. Late last night people reported UBI emails being sent. (since its all automated) and I'm sure that your Amazon type accounts will be the same way.

I don't pre order much anymore because I go buy a GameStop or Eb almost every day now.

I reserved my copy at a local Gamestop. Phone conversation yesterday stated that it would be in today, however their noon shipment arrived without a single copy of SH4, so now it looks like tomorrow. :damn: :damn: :damn:

fullmetaledges 03-20-07 03:03 PM

I pre ordered with EB and haven't got a confirmation email yet so I called them and they said it will be sent out today.

Tigrone 03-20-07 03:28 PM

No, but delivery still says 3/23.
