Not to rain on your day or anything but we are thinking NOV. 9th is when everyone will get the game. Just to let everyone know, halo 2 is shiped to game releasers on the 9th and will be ship to stores 2 to 3 days later. If the store has a good maneger he will go down to the relseasers and get the games him self. Other then that they will ge shiped 2 to 3 days later.
Prof? Find a game that will come out soon and on the released day go down to the stores and they will tell you all about the games release date. And it's NOT just for the game I was tring to get (rainbow six 3:BA) It's for all games. sorry. so for all the people that wanted the game on saterday, your dreams come true.

-S

No, Halo 2 is the release date. In other words, when the game is made available to the public. Retailers will actually have the game at least a couple days in advance.

Edit- Also, keep in mind that Halo 2 is a MUCH, MUCH larger title than other games, and Microsoft will see to it that the major outlets all have their copies ready. If the game doesn't arrive on time in your town, it's most likely because of the store you buy the games from.

Actually it will be in stores on the 9th, if you go to ebgames.com , it ships on the 8th, and the stores will recieve it on the 9th as is all games. Every game I have gone to get is always out the day after it ships...

actually it ships to stores the 8th (or so they say) which means either you can get it that night or some time the next day.
