local gamestop dont know about it

[jocky68]

just called into my local gamestop to book a copy of the game, and they said they had heard of the game but have no release date for it. wtf?

Don't go near it again, boycott it, tell your friends to stay away and tell people it smells funny in there. They shouldn't be running a store like that. I am sickened.

EDIT : okay a bit over the top, but you shoulda told em straight, they might have given you a job...which you coulda told them to stick elsewhere!

The release date is November 16. Believe me, this is one of the situations where you want to trust in the Intranet.

Game retailers have no idea.

its the only half decent place in kilkenny to get games. will have to try else where i guess. i know its out on the 16th but you would think they would know about it, fecking useless bastards

I don't think they are paid to know release dates.

Maybe they are paid by Microsoft and Bungie to only say the Halo 2 releasedate, damn barbarians

i watched him check the computer and he said no release date on that one but he had heard of it. i thought gamestop of all places would be on the ball, guess not.

One moron at EB Games about a month ago said that the computer expected it out by late fall, but the guy suspected sometime next year.

Haha, he was wrong!

 

[jocky68]

i will just have to wait till release day and hope i can get a copy, IF they get it in. had same problem with doom3. got there on release day and it was sold out. they never order enough copys to meet the demand.

Probably what he heard from Vivendi. They've been considering it a 2005 release even close to the first RC being sent out.

Yeah I know what you mean, everyone I know is SICK of me telling them about Half-life 2, I mean whats wrong with it, its not as if its a dumb old game right?


right?

It's not a game, it's life.

save me now plzkthx

it's half-life.

I have that problem of telling everyone about HL2 too. Maybe I shouldn't ask everyday:"Hey, do you know what I'm gonna get in <insert remaining days according to HL2 countdown> days?"
And then they say:"Half-Life 2?"
Me:"OMG! How do you that!"
victim:"Because you have been asking me that question for the last 20 days?"
Me:"0wnd3d!"
