Not yet, but if we are going to be able to get it expect to hear about it in the next 2-3 hours. Otherwise...hunker down and wait for tomorrow.

I'll be calling around 1PM, made a few calls already but none received their usual delivery.

There's still hope! I mean it's only 12:45PM right now.

EDIT: Oh yeah, 1 store told me they got their delivery but I think it BS, they didn't have it, on top of that they tried selling me MW2 over the phone what the hell?

inb4 GameStop, it wasn't GameStop.

Isn't that what salespeople do? They "try" to sell you things~ They were doing their job I'd think. ^^

Meh, I found it plain random.

"No I don't have that game but I received MW2 today, have you heard about it?"

Ugh, freaking viral marketing.

Modern Warfare 2 HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! I accidently called it Modern Welfare 2 this morning when I was takin my friend to pick it up. Holy Christ did it start a shit-storm. As my English friend said ever said so elegantly: "FUCK! You had to get those Yankee Xbox basement dwellers riled didn' ya? Stupid wanker, where is my steel when I need it?"

Oh and they didn't have PSZ in stock. The pimply faced high school drop out told me it was comin in the 16th.

The 16th? Shitstorm. What a joke.

And What's wrong with being a Yankee? Northeast kicks ass.

Well, that's what the English call Americans as a whole. But yes, it does rock to be a North Easterner. Especially a New England resident from Boston. Shit yeah, Boston! Anyway, I'm derailing the topic here.

At least the game should be available by tomorrow.

Nah, thats just a slang term English have for Americans. Also there were ALOT of those hardcore 360 people there. My buddy Vanessa has a 360 but plays with mainly EU people because she can't stand the majority of the American players. Although she does buddy up with the occasional "Yank" 10 year old to start a maelstrom of hate and swearing from the opposing team whilst laughing in that...evil laugh of hers.

And yes, the 16th. Me and her where ready to go nutshit on this dude. We've had alot of problems with Gamestop lately. She (Vanessa) had one guy question her purchase of Muramasa: The Demon Sword because A) It was on a Wii, B) She even has a Wii, C) It looked "gay" because of the art stylings. I think she was ready to rip out the guy's eye at that point. Oh and I had one manager ask me why I wasted money on a PS3 when I went to buy InFamous. Stupid c*nts!

I went to my local Gamestop to pick up my pre-ordered copy and
they said that they didn't have it yet. The release date is the
same date as the distribution date, or so they told me. I was
told to try again tomorrow. =\

A friend of mine in Sacramento went to the MW2 Launch at midnight and asked for Zero... THEY HAD IT, but wouldnt sell to him..... my point is SACRAMENTO has copies... and I live in Cali... so heres hoping *crosses fingers*

Hero_Of_Fate
Nov 10, 2009, 02:02 PM
Well, maybe they'll sell it today since they wouldn't really want to sell it at a Midnight Launch event for another game. Unless they're going to be bitches and declare today MW2 only day. God, I hate Gamestop.

Hey, Ashley from Gamestop Corp just called my house. God I hate her voice... She said it'd be available tomorrow. Baaaawwww.

Yeah, same story that the rest of you just got, its shipping today so it wont be in until around 11ish tomorrow.

Lucky for me, I dont have class until 3:30, so I can get a friend to drive me there as soon as its in.

Same here, but insert "EBGames" instead of "Gamestop".

I'm in Ottawa - the capital of Canada - and nowhere has it. Everyone's like "Sorry, we didn't get in our PS0 shipment today; MODERN WARFARE 2 ROFL"

Edit: And tomorrow, I have class from 12-4 and work from 5-10. Taking into account travel time, and the fact that EBgames apparently gets their shipments in at "1 to 2" I have a combined total of about eight minutes to pick up my pre-order.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

they told me tommorw sometime, and to be there early afternoon for best chances, since they receive midday shipments. of course i should be getting a call and everything, but they told me that i wil have the game before closing time tommorow, unless there is some act of god against our favor.

yeah they said after 5 they should be done with unpacking all there shipments so if they got it today they'll know after 5

The official PSZ's forums are dead, not a single post made since this morning, such a shame.

Well i'm giving up for today, tomorrow's gonna be easy for everyone to get it at least. :P

... Oh and watch when Bayonetta comes out, i'm sure it'll come out on the day it was announced.

inb4 ship on/available on/street date, that's only wordplay, usually when you give a date on your game, it's the street date, the date it comes out.

Calamity
Nov 10, 2009, 04:11 PM
well on the psz website it does say in stores the 12th.. so maybe thats what sega was planning, the 12th. and gamestop jus sucks at life..?

AAAA this is BS lol, i called "my local Gamestop" and the receiver said "we have not received any copies yet so i assume they should be in tomorrow"

Hey everyone, dont even bother looking for it at wal-mart, or calling wal mart about it:

http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_constraint=0&ic=48_0&search_query=phantasy+star&Find.x=0&Find.y=0&Find=Find

It says right there "Not sold in stores." :/ Im gonna go ahead and try for the local target though.

EDIT: No luck there either. Looks like its a definite no-go for today. Lets hope we fare better tomorrow eh gents?

I know my backwood store said they'll have it around 1PM but i'm still skeptic, even though I talked to the guy I know I mean, can't be sure it's gonna ship today.

I'll make a few calls again to see if other shops are getting it today.

Is anyone finding this game outside of Gamestop or EBGames? The Target, Meijer's, and Walmarts I went to didnt even have a space in the cases for it. (Luckily there's 3 Gamestops within 3 miles of each other by me -_- so I got it at least! :D)
