Canada screwed for release today?

Just registered here to add on that.

Just came back from one of the EBGames around town and the clerk told me it had been pushed back to Friday.

This is getting ridiculous.

Is a crime to release this game in Canada or something? l called gamestop on the 2nd hoping to get the game early, not a chance. l tried on the 8th, the "NA" release date, no way: "The game is out on the 15th" they said. Well here we are and l was told by several different stores: "There has been a last minute change, it will be out on the 18th." Seriously? What the **** is up with this bullshit? Maybe l'll just buy NHL10, a game that actualy released on its release date.

Yeah this is f'n retarded at this point, I've been told the 18th as well. How difficult can this be???

Pissed.

One store l just called said they hope to have it in later today, so there is hope, or maybe he didn't get the memo.

`The Few` where are you at.....i`m Hamilton Ontario, and Eb Games simply doesnt know as they say.

The guy was pretty cool about it, I could hear lots of noise in the background...most likely happy EA customers getting NHL 10.

I`ve only called one place so far. There are about 7 in the area so chances might be good.

Maybe I should try and have the same conversation 7 times and then buy a hockey game out of spite

BULL-SHIT. Capital B. And S.

update: Gamestop has Heroes Over Europe available!

They have got plenty of NTSC-U BOP

You can even buy a used one,since almost all asian player returned it because some fXcking regional lock.

little update.

im east of toronto if that helps anyone. My local EB said that they could possibly get a shipment in today, but im not honestly holding my breath over that.

I've called just about every other store in the area, futureshops, other eb's, best buy, ect ect.

Some say the 18th, some said maybe later today, others said they've never heard of the game.

I wonder if this has anything to do with that lame french instruction booklet crap that seems to delay a lot of other canadian releases.
