Well...I just was at EB and went ahead and pre-purchased my copy and asked when I could pick it up...she checked the computer and told me that it would not be in the store until the 23rd. So it appears that it is being "released" on the 22nd and the shipments go out that day and the stores and pre-orders(well...ones that had it overnighted) will recieve it on the 23rd. Sorry for the bad news...I guess I will be calling there when they open to see when i can pick mine up... http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/frown.gif

Normally EB ships the day before to get there that day.

So if you order overnite it'll ship the 21st and get to you by the 22nd.

Usually here in Canada we get stuff on the day after. But the US should have it the day of the release date. Sometimes we get stuff on the release date too.

I ordered mine from the "Special Offer EB store" I dunno if i get overnight delivery but, do u guys know if mine might come the 22nd or 23rd? Please Reply..

Im getting mine....well mmm doesnt really matter to me, maybe in 2 weeks ill buy it, im not in a huge rush.

S-Less.

does any1 know answer to my previous post?

my bro asked the eb guy when he pre-ordered our copies and the storeguy told him they would get it on the 22nd, but they may or may not distribute them on that day. also if we are in the end of the pre-order list then maybe we would get it on 23rd.

Go to Fileplanet.com and let the stream video run it's course. It'll show various scenes from MOHAA that I'm sure you're familiar with.
The part that will interest you is the ending of the stream.
It clearly says, "In stores January 23rd".

Let me just say that I've never seen ppl want this game so bad before in my life.

Why do you guys even preorder? You get the game faster when you just go the damn store. Jesus, the lazyness. :/

Don't do drugs.

Picking it up at EB is the quickest way. If you order frm anywhere--you're waiting. Have seen this happen with many releases. Wait and see--EB will have it first.

i've seen worst. does freelancer or how about b5: into the fire ring a bell.
ouch. to be burned and the company being indifferent about the game's fanbase after about 3 years of programming.
at least we have the leisure of anticipating this game.

Well, I'll be checking the stores on Tuesday - at night - after they've been hopefully put on the shelves.

Dont be so silly people.

Posting this topic for such a tiny problem???

what´s the deal 22, 23, it is only a day!!!!!


Here in Ecuador we have to wait for it till mid Feb....

its out on the 1st of feb here in n.ireland.
i don't think that is too long to wait.

I agree that preordering online is the worst thing you can do if you want the game bad. I heard stories that sometimes games dont get delivered for a week or so. This is my first preorder online.

I preordered from EA because EA sent me a 15 dollar coupon. I am buying it for 24.99 from ea store and for that I can take a risk on not getting it on the release day.

Otherwise I would never prorder a game online.

I agree with Spooge.

i preordered from amazon.com, when, do you think, should i expect the game? i was thinking max on 25

*SIGH*

WHO KNOWS???


*WAITIN WITH ANTICIPATION*

some of us have preordered it from the STORE not online, i would never pre order online. Pre order in the store incase it sells out so you are guarnteed a copy of it the day its out.

That is what I did...just went down there and pre-paid. That way, you are guaranteed to get a copy when you come to pick it up.

When I preordered at EB here in Canada, they told me that they would GET IT on the 24th, so that's when I'm expecting the call.

And if there isn't an EB store in your city, then what can you do besides wait? In my experience with pre-ordering games I usually got them the same day they appeared at EB stores, and usually A WEEK before they were available at Best Buy or Media Play or Wal-Mart.

Circuit City is *supposedly* getting it in tomorrow, because Tuesdays just HAPPEN to be one of the days they always get their shipments in. =)

As far as whether I'll GET it tomorrow, with my parents, who hate to drive, it's hard to tell.

I called CC today to confirm that, and no one answered the 3 times I called. I'll call again tonight.

Happy Gaming Everyone!

I work at Best Buy and I checked our computer and it isn't in so far. But we do get drop shipments during the day so I will check there or get it from the competitor, i.e. Circuit City.
