Ya just heard that the new release date for us is Sept 18th...maybe...could be a stock issue as Ihave been told that Walmart gobbled many copies and places in the USA and Europe can't get stock??? to many stories and bullshit to know what is going on...I don't see any comments from this guy Anton on these forums we have been asking what is going on since Sept 8th...no comments from Anton!!!

Well, this really is a publisher issue, so our beef is with 505 Games...

I would like to let them know that yes Canadians do in fact get angry, and you won`t like us when we`re angry.

At any rate, I wouldn`t mind hearing from Anton, if only for a little sympathy.

p.s - still really pissed off!

They put priority on that new NHL 2010 game ! that's why

If its anything like the UK the actual release date is always a day later due to store bull****. They have the "release" date as the actual date they send out or sell pre-orders. The actual shelf date where you can just walk in a buy it is always at least one day later.

How does that explain the release date for Canada being changed three times in the last week...Sept 8th ,then Sept 15th,now today they say Sept 18th...???

I am in contact with a game store and they have no clue what is going on.

What really shocks me is that this is a 505 games official forum and not a F......g word from this company...don't tell me this guy Anton hasn't seen some of these comments.

I want to know if i am wasting my time waiting for a Canadian release which may not come for a long time if at all

All it would take is a comment from the company rep who must know what is going on but hasn't got the guts to TELL US !!!

This is actually the best theory so far. When I read that my first thought was that it's totally possible. I'd say more copies of NHL games (especially 10) get sold in Canada than the rest of the world, combined.

I'll bet its like 90% of the Hockey titles are sold in Canada.
