The Irony is that Europe has to wait till the 9th because of something walmart did almost 20 years ago.

now they sell early copies and Europe won't even get an early copy at all.


haha, too true

And I'm sure there's some tool on ebay willing to pay $2,000 for the extra 5 days of early release. The person who made the video is crazy if he doesn't sell it.

Gamestop will only break street date if there is a widespread break by "someone". A single copy sold by some random walmart won't do it. Now, if...as the day goes on...it becomes apparent that Wally world has put their stock out en masse....then maybe.


Not even.  My GameStop is way too small to afford a leak.  They're pretty good about not breaking Street.  Just the sheer amount of money one has to pay is enough to make me scratch my head. :crying:

You have to do one of two things:

1) Someone has to bring them a RECEIPT, showing a purchase, usually WITH the product, itself.  Not a picture of a receipt, but the actual paper receipt.

2) You have to give them a LOCAL store phone number (ie: Target...it's going to have to be a large chain store, too...not a mom and pop) that will confirm the item is in stock and available for purchase.  They will sometimes send one of their own employees out to secret shop it, too.

The procedure, then, is for them to call their district manager to report it.  The DM then calls their regional manager, who will, more often than not, approve (especially if there's a copy of a receipt) sales from that point.  Sometimes just for that store, sometimes for all the stores in a district, sometimes for all the stores in the chain (and one of their "system alert" messages would be sent out).

Sometimes, if there's a widespread report from a credible news source (happend with the DSi, for example) that retailers have broken street, the DM's or Regionals will catch wind and then alert the stores they can sell.  That's far more rare, though.

They're not going to allow themselves to lose massive sales from "their" customers because Walmart, en masse, broke street date.

Guess the NDA for those that got the Space Edition doesn't matter now.

Could this be construed as breaking the law ? Im kinda pissed to be honest, not only that even if by some miracle we in the uk got it early from a store, but that playing on the pc id have to wait till 9th anyway... 8 DAYS BEFORE US COME ON!

Now i have to avoid spoilers like the plague, everywhere on the internet, i mean itll be leaked now great. Before official reviews too.

No, it's not breaking the law (assuming it was purchased, legitimately, and they didn't steal it or swap bar codes to buy it..that would fraud by the person who bought it).

It's probably a violation of the contract that Walmart has with EA...but if it's one isolated copy in one Walmart....EA's not going to pursue it. And even if they did, they'd only be able to "fine" them.

I just wonder if the person was able to get at any of the DLC...or if it's all "locked up", not on Xbox live, until the 6th.

Collitinius - Didnt he get the CE? It was probably on his disc, or the second disk that came with it.

I think, for much of it, you still have to DL it...you did with ME2 CE. I don't think you're DL'ing ALL of it, but you're DL'ing the unlock.
