Same here, well probably a little farther but with in an hour, it's a small world. I wonder if I could go to my local meijers and pick up a copy.

Well, that Meijers didn't have anymore left. He said they were gone earlier today. Sold, or removed from shelves? Who knows
For those local to Michigan, I also went to Canton and Westland, and they didn't have any either.
Oh well

And I won't believe how many copies of Turok Evolution these stores have coming in. Boxes and boxes full of Turok.
Maybe a decoy? heh

That's what I was thinking too. I read that someone has already been banned for going on live before the 9th. I'm just not so sure these customers should be punished simply because the store sold them the game early. Gonna really suck for those people who don't even have the option to change their eeprom.

For a highly anticipated game, I think they did a great job of holding it in.

Bungie screwed up??
1) Halo 2 never had a release date. November 9th was the first one.
2) Bungie didn't tell someone to leak the game early.
3) With all the preorders and the demand, stores had to make sure they got enough copies to satisfy most people. It's not Bungie's fault stores break rules, and sell the game early. Stores usually don't get one huge shipment. They come in groups.
Bungie did zero wrong.

yep, i found that out in person. just the thought of seein that exact store being soo close to me, got me a lil crazy. i mean what are the chances that out of millions of stores, the one that "leaks" halo 2 is in your hometown? whne i asked the lady for a copy, she was very strict about it, and i even showed her a print out of the copy shown here. i tried to convince her that it was already released, but she knew better. not even a bribe worked
o well, less than 4 days till release

| Man, I ordered my copy online, so I may not get it until Friday... is it wrong to "download" a game because you're too impatient to wait for it, even though you're still buying it? The US version is now out online, so at least the game saves would work. |
I dunno man. That's one of those things you have to question yourself on. Your call.

Yes, I am always at ebgames.com
Let me set this straight..
4/1/2004
9/1/2004
Those are not real release dates for Halo 2 at EBGames.com. Those were the rumored release for Halo 2. Like, Spring 2004 or Fall 2004

Those mentioned in the article.. work for MS. Guys like Ed Fries (well not anymore). I don't see anything related to Bungie telling IGN when Halo 2 was coming out.
