where in canada are you?
I’m quite sure Ontario hasn’t gotten the copies yet.
I was told they’re coming Friday. ):
I feel you guys. I had to bus to 4 different gamestops. Most of the Gamestops only had two or three copys and didn’t even have enough for their pre-orders. Its amazing for such a good game.
I know of 3 places that had them in the gta on Wednesday;
The place I got it from
A place that sold the last copy to the guy ahead of me (they had more come in)
And one other place where someone said they got it
Say word… Well I’m lazy to mission that far (:
Hopefully they’ll have it tomorrow where I’m at. They said Friday, so I’ll take their word for it.
i had mine reserved because i kinda had a feeling this would happen. i picked up my copy tuesday and this guy in line behind me interrupted as the gamestop employee handed me the game. he asked if they had any for ps3 and the employee said none that arent reserved x_x its called mad underground hype, gotta keep an eye on the “under the radar” games
Dunno if this was posted here yet, but every single shipment to Canadian retailers was delayed in customs for some reason, so they should either arrive Friday or Monday.
^
that happen with another game…
which one was it…
Just called my local gamestop, said shipment should arrive around 2-3pm.
Hopefully they’d have it this time. Just built a stick to play BB
I got mine at the SCII midnight release. It sucks that other people are having issues with finding copies though.
Called 2 local EBs here in Ottawa… both said they expect it today, but only 2 copies or so. Crazy.
Yeah Future Shop/Best Buy haven’t updated their sites yet so it says no info available when you check store stock. I’m about to go on a game hunt at every Gamestop, Wal-Mart and Future Shop/Best Buy in town.
Nothing here in winnipeg. The 2 local ebgames had 2 copies each for preorders, and i just preordered it YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS GOING TO PICK IT UP BUT THEY HAD NONE IN STOCK!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!
So… went to the 3 Gamestops/EB Games around here, they all had just enough for pre-orders. Future Shop and Best Buy have not received a single copy yet, nor has Wal-Mart…
Massive fuck up, way to have an official release date be 3 days late for pre-orders and 6 for non pre-orders…
I understand what a lot pf people are talking about when it comes to finding copies of BBCS because my local gamestop said they weren’t sure if they were gonna get copies on the U.S. release date (July 28).
They did happen to have copies after the fact but I think one of the main reasons why it’s hard to find is because unless you didn’t preorder BBCS it’s most likely going to be hard to find it because rare games like BBCS and 3rd Strike are mostly intended for hardcore fans and they don’t make a lot of copies for the mass market because hardcore video game fans don’t even make up half the market.
So to anybody still trying to find BBCS I wish you all good luck because this is similar like last year when the original BB came out when it came to finding a brand new copy. You can try online but they are probably are gonna say things like “not available online” or something like that.
Go amazon or something. Gamestop and EB only ordered as many as there were preorders, with the exception of a few extras. Both me and my brother managed to get the last copies for our console though I had to travel 40 miles to get mine.
40 miles? Respect.
I hadn’t imagined that this game was that hard to find. I almost never Pre-order stuff and I tend to think I can get it by just walking in. I almost didn’t get my copy of the game.
I walked into the Gamestop the day of and asked if the guy had any copies. The gamestop employee said that the UPS man had come with the shipment yet and wasn’t sure if I would be able to buy one when the mail came. When I asked him why, he said that some kid had already pre-ordered three copies.
I asked if the store would have any left after that guy got all three copies and he said yeah, but the shipments not there yet. I asked if I could buy it and he seemed hesitant at first, but he let me purchase it anyway before the shipment came. I had lunch, came back, got my game and threw the deuces.
Strangest experience I’ve had buying a game yet. Who preorders three copies of the same game? He must’ve been distrubuting to friends.
One more day until I can hopefully get my copy. Future Shop and Best Buy are supposedly getting them in tomorrow, hopefully Gamestop/EB get some in too just in case because I don’t think I can wait another fuckin week.
Chiming in from Canada here. I put in an order at Video Games Plus late Wednesday. They shipped Thursday morning. I’d have it tomorrow if not for the August civic holiday (no mail service).
