At Gamestop.com, when ordering the Collector's Edition with the fastest shipping, it says the status is "Pre-Release: 11/08/04".

Does that mean you will receive the game one day early? I doubt that it does, but I have never pre-ordered a game before.

i dont think it will happen
Bungie wants to be fair about it and giving it out early is not fair to others who hav to wait another day

I pre-orederd my copy at Gamestop, and they said it would come in at like 11:59 Nov. 8, just to say it was a day earlier, but I did that so I wouldn't have to wait for the lazy mailman (they stop for donuts and stuff, that's what my dad says, and yes he IS a mailman), I put the games fate in my hands, what if the trunk gets jacked along with your copy of halo 2=your strewed. (hey, that rhymed)

[color=white]The guys at the Gamestop I'm getting Halo 2 from say they'll probably be open until midnight (more like 2 or 3am) November 8th/9th in order to sell Halo 2 the minute it's legal for them to do so.

They better....[/color]

I'll be on my own side.

umm.......and how do you know Bungie's policies about game releases?? Gamestop releases games a day early for people who reserved it.but they only do it for big game releases. i got Ninja Gaiden a day early

the game doesnt get there ON November 9th you know. the shipment ususally comes about a day or two early,like on the 7th or 8th.
