It depends.

Sometimes they ship a day or so early so people get their games on the release date. There was another time though (can't remember which product), where one of my buddies got his Ubisoft title 1 day before release. However, I pre-ordered from Ubi one time and some of the stores in my area had the product in stock, but Ubisoft still hadn't shipped my copy. lol

I pre-ordered mine from Ubisoft with Next-Day Air shipping, so I'm hoping I can get mine maybe a day before retail shelf release.

The dates listed on the EB Games websites are the dates products are shipped, not in-store. Usually add 1 day, sometimes more, to see the date that the product will actually arrive in the store and be put out for sale.

Hope this helps.

@Ark

Thank you very much for that info. I live in Slovenia, and the extra funds needed for next-day delivery was a bit too much (as the DE is already 50 pounds).

Seeing that we're in the EU, I expect it too come to my home in around one week. If it were schengen, I would get it in a day or 2, but customs takes some time. Atleast, we no longer need to pay custom tax (20% on the original price+VAT together).

Technically that's the date that you should be able to walk into a brick and mortar retailer and purchase a copy off the shelf. I imagine many retailers ship orders on that day and others may ship a little earlier taking shipping time into account. The retailers in my local area have pushed back the release date from March 15th to the 22nd.

Np!

In your case, I would just wait for the EU release. Having to deal with all the customs nonsense is too time consuming. Ubisoft's shipping times are a toss-up, but many I have spoken to seem pretty satisfied with the delivery speed. I wouldn't worry.

Unless they've already noticed a few bugs they really don't have much to do afte gold but PR. The product's finished, now all they have to do is sell it.

Just happened to read the collectors edition info at Amazon UK and noticed they are now advertising a making of DVD with their edition of the game... don't know if it's a mistake or not, but I'd actually prefer that to the soundtrack CD.

"Special collector's edition contains:
Silent Hunter 4 game DVD with manual, poster and quick reference card
Special box with specific artwork
Recognition manual
Making of Silent Hunter 4 DVD
Arm patch"

I can't wait to get back to the PTO

S!

No comment? I'm just not sure what I ordered, it's called collectors edition but there is no collectors edition on this list outside of the amazon one and I ordered from a store.
