None in maryland, we were given a sell date of 5/1. as far as im concerned, if by some miracle they arrive today, then customers and getting call-backs and the copies are being given to themn today! I just cant believe that on the RELEASE DATE of a game, that the developer cant even take the time to be honest with their consumer!



Eh my gamestop tried to explain it as in the shipment will come tomorrow but in like the morning whenever the delivery get's there.

That's about right. We have it listed as "inbound" and whenever a shipment is listed as "inbound that usually means within the day.

Although it should be noted that this game was listed as "inbound" yesterday as well.

Yeah, sorry, but I don't get it. My friend was denied the game at Gamestop this morning, telling him to come back next week. He got his preorder keychain though. Can you please clarify if stores actually have the game today or was there some sort of shipping delay or something? Like, do you think they turned him away because of the wrong date, or because they physically do not have the game?


Your friend sounds really cool. I feel for him as I had the exact same thing happen to me this morning. So glad that I got to drive 30 min out and back for the single purpose of picking up my preorder copy. Hopefully your friend had other errands and lives closer to GS than I do. I hope he's at least picking up some ladies with his pimped out new keychain. I bet he's looking even cooler now, which was thought to be nearly impossible. Oh, and thanks GS for ruining my day.

okay look its nowhere for purchase but steam and thats it so if you wanna talk crap about Gamestop you might as well start on every other retailer as well and its not the developer if anyone its someone that works for the publisher in the products shipping department or the shipping companies themselves but it only takes one person to screw up and order if anyone thinks gamestop or any other retailer is going to purposely lose money you're mistaken.

I'm from New Zealand and it's not available at EB Games until May 25th so you should all count yourselves lucky you're getting it so early. Im confused as to why everywhere has such varied release dates. I thought release dates were issued by the developer and games are shipped worldwide to meet those dates?

It would be somewhat hard to ship out millions of copies of the game around the world to meet a certain deadline for release. You've got to take into account cost of shipping, delays, postal strikes etc.

Most other games seem to do it. BF3, GTA, RDR, FIFA, MW3, UC3, MK9...you name it the list goes on. Not just the big name company titles either. EB Games has always had release dates the same time as the rest of the world.
The game is obviously finished and shipped to most parts of Europe, US etc as some people already have it. It doesn't take 3 weeks to ship products to NZ. I've ordered things from UK that have arrived within 5 days.

Gamestop called me and said it would be in the 9th possibly. They can't control when a game gets sent to them.
