(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I called walmart to confirm that my game would arrive Tuesday the 13th You must login or register to view this content.
The guy had told me the game won't even Ship until friday.
I just wanted to know how many of you guys purchased from Walmart.com?
Did the guy maybe not know WTF he was saying?
Will my game indeed be here Tuesday the 13th?

I don't get it, whats the point in a preorder if you don't get it until days after release?
Thanks!

it'll probably take the money from your account at the time of dispatch, in that case it will do it all monday so you get it for tuesday.

so places take payment early so that can prepare it ready for dispatch if they know the demand is going to be high. if you dont get it in time complain as it defeats the object of pre ordering with them

Exactly, it already removed $64 from my account. Also as you can see it says it's processing. I personally think the guy didn't know what the fuck he was talking about.

they may not have the stock then mate, they may have ran out before the site could update. happened to me when i pre ordered dirt showdown, i got it a week late. that was from the uk equivalent to walmart called asda. if it doesnt change by 2pm monday get a refund and buy elsewhere just do you can still order before the cut off point for next day delivery

Well I have checked the site everyday since I ordered the game. Not once did I see out of stock. I doubt that's the case. I know the hardened is Out Of Stock. Also if they ran out wouldn't I get an email? I suppose only time will tell. Thanks for the help Lew

My experience with Walmart is unless it says your getting it on street date chances are you will not. Though it could be a different story with you. I think pre-ordering is just guaranteeing you will get a copy (though I have never know games to completely sell out like consoles do or at-least not around me).

Personally I always go through amazon... I am never taxed on amazon, so with prime and $2-$4 dollar overnight shipping I end up spending the same amount and don't have to get off my ass or take the time to go get the game. Fuck often times when I go through amazon I get the game a day earlier than I was supposed to.


Though I fucked up and when through gamestop.com for BLOPSII for ps3...

yeah they are cheeky like that mate, same happened to me. they'll take orders and just order more in if needed then send them out . proper piss take. no yo uwouldnt get a email it would stay on processing until they had the stock then it'd be packed and sent which then you'd get the dispatch email etc

Well. We looked in my email and concluded that my copy is already reserved and will get it tuesday. It's kind of hard to explain why I questioned this in the first place, but I looked on my account for wally world and saw it comes tuesday. Then I searched in the search bar for the game and it said it will arrive between Tuesday and Friday. But i'm thinking thats for people who haven't purchased a copy yet. So I think I'm overreacting. But I will let everyone know on monday if it shipped out.
