Dude, have you preordered it? Cuz if you haven't then I'm sorry to say that you may not get it on release. I went to EB the other day to check on my copy, and I asked the dude working there if I was guaranteed a copy. He said only if you preordered. I thanked God. Then I asked if alot of people had been asking about HL2 and he said, "Hell yeah." I hate to be the bearer of bad news.....
