Sooooo.....If everyones getting their packages in the mail that means the shops should start releasing them soon? Id love to get mine today even tho I wont be able to unlock it till next week?

Opinions please people
 
didnt someone say retailers should start recieving their copies around the 5th

well still have to wait till the 16th to play it though
 
I think that many stores, such as Best Buy, have already received the games. Even if they have them in storage, though, they're not supposed to release them until the 16th. And, even if a copy does get leaked out, i don't think there could be a "legal" way to unlock it until the 16th.

I dont mind not playing it but itd be nice to have it in the hand, even tho we cant unlock it untill the 16th?
 
most stores probibly have copies by now, what, do you think vivendi just stores them in some big warehouse and sends them out like a week before?


big chains in the US have probibily had it since late october...
 
It ships the 16th doesn't it?

My EB prolly won't have it till wednesday, 17th, I ordered it online anyways.
 
Ya i know all that but youd think theyd let you get it as soon as it came in because you cant unlock it before the 16th.....

Life isnt fair
 
At my local GameStop, The doors were open today at 12:00 am for Halo 2. Do you they will do the same for HL2? Idk my guess no is because all the loser Halo 2 fanboys around my school and crap and HL2 just won't get enough hype but I'm 20 times more hyped for HL2 than H2.
 
Shanno - what's the point? It'd just sit there, grinning at you. Smugly whispering to you about how good it could all be but how you couldn't play it. Not yet... You still have to wait. You don't even have a manual to read through, do you? No. NO! Muhahahaaa!
 
LOL - i want to stroll around the house neked with just my hat on...my own personal 'salute' to valve (thats also how im gunna install the game. neked with just the hat on hehehe na just kiddin...i think
 
I've heard that a norwegian shop have already got their share of copys, and that Valve/Vivendi had hired a security agency to make sure that the game won't end up in illegal hands :E
I guess this goes for the rest of the world too...(?)
