**** sake!!! I just spent the entire day going to every electronics store trying to get it early, and no avail!! I couldve gone down to Glen Waverly Damn you! My last hope is KMart 24/7 in Campbelfield! lol

 

[OkeyD]

5pm? Wouldn't they be closed by then?

Lucky, there will be a midnight launch here in NZ.

JBHIFI are giving out pre-orders aswell, just picked up my copy and installing it!!

 

[OkeyD]

Just called the store I preordered mine from. Guy says "nnnnnooooooo, it comes out tomorrow" I'm in QLD.

 

[nasanu]

EB Pacific Far QLD would not sell me mine.

 

[Flunkus]

No!!

I went in to my local EB (Stanhope) at 4:45 and they wouldn't budge on my Signature Edition. The guy said they hadn't even received it yet!

I knew I should've hung around!

Oh well, I'll be there bright and early tomorrow, may as well practice my heel-toe on GTR2.

Thanks for opening this thread!

EB North Lakes QLD wouldnt sell mine , i searched 5 shops that would sell the game and no luck trying to get it early. 8am tomorrow i can pick it up, its going to be hard to sleep tonight knowing the rest of the world is playing it.

 

[OkeyD]

EB in Corio Victoria won't sell it early.

They rang me today that they have it and to pick it up tomorrow. I asked if I could come in today and get it. No dice unfortunately.

 

[RallyMad]

EB Toowoomba wouldn't give my order over early either, Queensland.................... and I won't be able to pick it up till 9!

 

[That90sGuy]

I tried my local eb games store and they said to come back tomorrow

 

[blackjack]

no luck from my local jbhi fi on the central coast :-(

 

[Mush_nz]

Lucky, there will be a midnight launch here in NZ.

I hope you mean Playtech, cos I don't think anyone else will be doing one.

 

[ForrestBean]

EB @ Botany,Akl called this morning and said there was a midnight launch, Sony rep, TT, and prizes on offer..... plus a BBQ from 10 tonight.
cannot make it tho.................

 

[bmxmad]

Is anyone trading in there toy cars? I was going to but i dont have any but i wouldnt have minded seeing as they all go to charity and you get 50cent per car off the game.

 

[cicohipe]

I tried Mt Ommaney today, JB, EB, Kmart & Big W... none are selling it. Kmart & Big W don't even have it on shelf, or advertised in store!

 

[gtone339]

I hope you mean Playtech, cos I don't think anyone else will be doing one.

I asked the lady at EB downtown Auckland if there is going to be a midnight launch and she confirms there will be one at St Lukes Westfield shopping centre.

Forgot to add that little piece of detail in.

 

[maveric1985]

Anyone going to Garden City (Qld) Ebgames? I'm thinking about getting there at 8:30am for a 9am open.
