I went to Best Buy where i pre ordered and they said, ohh we don't always get games in on the 1st day DOOH!!
So I went to Game Stop and they said that none of thier 2000+ stores got it in.... EA musta screwed up on delivery is what he told me. :wallbash:

06-21-2005, 12:07 PM
All of the "Gamestores" here said they won't have it till tomorrow. Funny thing is all the non-gamestores (i.e. CompUSA, Best Buy, Circuit City) said yes they will have it sometime this afternoon... w00t!!! looks like I'm making a little side trip on the way home tonight.

I called BestBuy and they said it won't be released until Thursday at all stores nationwide. On the other hand, I called the local Wal-Mart and they said it was on the truck that is being off loaded right now and the game will be on the shelves in a couple of hours. :) WOOT!!!!!

I need one more copy for a friend who arrives tonight. I called wal-mart a few minutes ago.
Jeff: " Have you received your copies of Battlefield 2 PC game yet?"
Walmart employee: " Butterfeld's? is that some type of game?"
Im talking to the employee in the games section mind you
Jeff: "Thats right Butterfeld's 2."
Walmart employee: " Hold on let me go check."
Shuffling paper next to register, checking under notebook on counter, pencil sharpening
Walmart employee: "I went and looked and didnt see anything resembling that name."
Jeff: "Take your own life."

well so far i hear a lot of unconfirmed reports...
BTW i just called the local walmart here and they said "we don't have it and we don't know when it is coming out"

When i called Wal-Mart an hour ago, the lady said BF2 was on the list for today and should be on the truck which was being unloaded at this very minute. She also said other people had called about the game.

The Gamestop here has it but wont sell it till tomorrow. My friend works at EB and says the one here should be getting it in around 1:30 PST and that it will go on shelves as soon as it gets there.

06-21-2005, 02:50 PM
I went to two Wal-marts this morning and neither had them. I asked one associate and he told me a third party stocks the games and they had no clue when they were scheduled to arrive.
I'll probably swing by Wal-mart again this evening.
Oh, and Dinky, you moved to Iowa? You sold out!
DinkyPoopStick
06-21-2005, 02:58 PM
I just called Best Buy again..... still says tomarrow, I am thinking that the people in places like wal-mart have no idea what they are takling about and just look at some paper that says today so they say "try later today", but there may have been a shipping error by EA or some middle man and only the really Nerdy people (EB, gamestop, and us) employees care enough to know that it isn;t coming in..
yes i moved (sold out), but i did it for a 50k a year promotion :yaya:

My Gamestop said they should have it Wed morning around 10am which is when the shipment is scheduled to arrive.
Another nite in the Demo server. NO problem.

You guys should always make sure your trannies are the real deal, not this kind...

These kinds of trannies tend to blow up if you leave your car parked too long with the windows not rolled down. Is that Gilbert Gotfried?

ROFL. I logged in too. Works fine I guess. THE GAME WILL BEGIN WHEN 1 MORE PERSON JOINS GAME.
Listen like I was telling =HR= Snake earlier, order through Amazon guys, no bells or whistles no frills. Order next day shipping, Amazon gets its supply, they dont take the time to warehouse that crap, time is $$$ with amazon. Your order processed, wham-bam this needs to go here pronto. The last 4 games I ordered all came a day early. Unitl that cycle breaks, i swear by amazon.

I GOT MINE!!! :flipoff:
I went down to the local wally world and convinced the guy to go look in back. He said he had them but it wasn't released till Wednesday. I showed him the Wal-Mart website on his computer and showed him "Ships" 6-21-05. So he went back to the back and got it. Said if the computer/register would let me buy it I could have it.
:rockon: :rockon: :rockon:
Of course it did. :D He only found the CD version instead of the DVD version, but oh well it's only 3 discs.
Now if I could just get my ********* internet to work, I could play online. :wallbash:
oh well :yuck:

saturday I go to EB games to ask when it will be out for sure. They say tuesday morning at 10am for sure. I preorder my copy and he says that I am lucky cus they only had 3 more avalable for preorder so I am very happy. Only 3 short days later I go to kirs house and we both go to EB games to get our copys that they promised would be in today. We go up to counter and ask the lady there for our copy and she looks at us like we are crazy. She says it is to come out tomorrow. I am like the guys told us today only 3 days ago. She says they were wrong and if she hadnt been so hot I would have tried to strangle her right there. :jerkit:

06-21-2005, 11:41 PM
So yeah it's out....BUT I CAN'T GET IT!!!! Why you ask? Because my mom decided to move my car while I was watching the pistons/spurs game tongiht, and ran over my little brothers Razor scooter that was laying in the driveway....End result: About a 1.5 ft crack from the back of the front passenger side fender all the way up and around to the head-light of the car. + a hole about the size of a baseball right beside the front passenger side blinker. And what do my parents say to this. Oh oops..sorry. So you can guess where all my money is going this week. Unlike most other college student, I work durring the year, save up and take the summer off. After all when I graduate there are no more summer vacations, why would I want to work the whole time during my last one or two? Well my savings are about to be raped by the body-shop so I guess it's time to start job-hunting. God I need a pint. :angryfire:

ok the late night guys at wal-mart are inbread retards. i went there asked the dude do you have BF2 he got this big sh.t eating grin on his face and said no that they dont have it yet. i asked let me guess you'll have it in the morning and he just smiled that dumb ass look again like it was a big secret that they were going to wait to stock them for the morning......think that may be the last time i go to wal-mart. OH and the first lady (i use that term VERY loosley). she didnt have a name tag on and she was just looking through the CDs and i asked if she was working. "she barked yeah what do you want!" i asked about the game and she said that "stocking games is not her (again "her" being used loosley) job"
