I wonder, is anyone else having as much trouble to find the game? I called various places to ask if they 1) Had the game / 2) Would receive the game anytime soon.

The majority of them simply said that they had no idea if they were to ever receive the games, and a few said in a week or so.

So I wonder, where did you guys pre-order it from/are gonna pick it up from.

Gamestop. Preordered it there and it's right by my house.

Same exact thing here (Gamestop like a 5 minute walk from my house).

I am not the best friends with the local game stores by any means. The only one I am on good terms with is the retro gaming store that sells older games and such. But since they do not carry new games I am a bit over my head. I could order it from amazon but I do not want to have to wait. I am wondering if Target or one of the larger stores will have it. I suppose I will just have to wait and see.

Best Buy will have it, they have it listed for being available tomorrow.

I called up Best Buy, Walmart, and Futureshop today to see if they had any idea when they were getting the game in. The guy at Best Buy asked me what game I was talking about, and I just hung up. I got a similar response from Future shop, they didn't know when it was coming in. Walmart told me that it should be here in a week or two.

Tomorrow I'll try EB Games..

Keep in mind, I live in Canada. I'm kinda bummed if I have to wait a few more weeks, can anyone else tell me otherwise?

You could always try Amazon, I buy things from the Canadian amazon all the time so I suppose you can purchase items from the american version. Shipping would not take that long if you got expedited. That is just one of the multiple choices you could have, I would guess that a game store should have it at least around the time of the release.

I live in Canada as well and I was wondering if anyone had any info. I called EB Games today and the guy told me they're expecting it in the next 2 weeks. Other than that the canadian Best Buy site doesn't even have it listed so who knows. I just hope it somehow comes out tomorrow, I absolutely can't wait to play this game.

I feel sorry for you Canadians getting screwed like this. I'll be sure not to spoil anything.

I'm from Canada too and I'm waiting this game to be in store so badly. I called to Microplay (maybe some of you don't know this store but anyway) they said they would maybe receive it on this weekend or maybe next week. Don't know if it will really be disponible on those dates but I hope so.

Yup, I'm Canada and this is why I made this thread, it seems nobody is receiving this game on the launch date. I tried 6 different shop and none had it now or in the coming days.

The best thing was a bestbuy who told me that MAYBE they would receive it sometime this week if we're lucky.

I called GameStop a few minutes ago to make sure they got my reserved copy in and they said they got it in, but only for people who reserved it (so either stores aren't getting many copies or the GameStop had enough reservations to cover all of the copies).

When I went to Wal Mart a few hours ago they didn't have the game, so it must be a small or slow release.

The Best Buy I went to only had four copies all of which were there until I bought the first one.
