Different stores get it different days it seems. While the game ships tomorrow, some stores get that first thing in the AM.

EB Games @ Westbrook said they'll have it first thing tomorrow.

I guess tomorrow, if you find it, post where you bought it.

cheers

I went and bought it today at EB games in southcentre, he said it will likely be in tomorrow.

HMV TD Square said tomorrow just before noon.

Oh yeah, when I said "bought it" I was reffering to the fact that I paid in full, and will now sit here patiently waiting for that call.

im going to take advantage of my free rentals from rogers until I buy the game at rogers...at a discount!

I'll be lucky to get it by the weekend here in Banff

May have to make a trip into town.

Sweet, I was waiting for somebody to start this thread. An unusual amount of people are saying it'll be in tomorrow. I'm still doing my best to keep my hopes in check. I'm still trying to figure out my story for when I need to unexpectedly leave work for an hour to go find it.

CRXguy · 09-08-2008, 10:25 PM

I have the day off tomorrow, so I'll make the trek around the stores and hopefully score a copy.

The southcentre EB sounds pretty confident about tomorrow.

i thought it was kinda weird that they would release it on thursday, instead of the usual tuesday, at least with walmart/bestbuy/futureshop.

anyone ever notice this in the past with EA NHL? Every other game always gets "shipped" or "released" on a tuesday, meaning it's on the shelf first thing tuesday morning. The EA NHL games always seem to have a thursday or friday date attached to them...and it seems like it can randomly be found starting the tuesday leading up to that thursday or friday up until the following tuesday. It's very frustrating.

I am so tempted to call shawnessy 24 hour walmart just to see

zukes · 09-09-2008, 06:25 AM

Well, since I have 2 hours on you guys, I will let you know in an hour and a half when EB Games opens up here.

flamestalker · 09-09-2008, 07:23 AM

What time does EB games open at? I'm headed to school around 8:30 and have a half hour to snoop around for a copy...Might hit Walmart as well.

zukes · 09-09-2008, 08:40 AM

Here it opens at 10:00. I can't leave work until at least 12:00 so I am not going to call them and get all excited, however if my cell goes off/vibrates while I'm still at work, I'll be getting excited

Gozer · 09-09-2008, 09:36 AM

I'm running to Deerfoot Meadows at lunch, anyone know if the EB or FS has it?

Russic · 09-09-2008, 09:41 AM

Stores open in 20 minutes. I expect you soldiers to report back with intel.

Raekwon · 09-09-2008, 10:03 AM

Anyonr call westbrook EB yet?

Russic · 09-09-2008, 10:05 AM

Northland EB is saying tomorrow.
