Are you getting that for the bundle? I see pre-order only for the game itself.

And Costco.com doesn't even show it as coming soon or available anymore. Yikes, looks like this will be as tough to get as imagined.

Son of a bitch. I had it in my costco cart this morning, and then before I clicked send I went to lunch. Came back, and they took it out of my cart and off the site. Son of a bitch.

Just got a call from FYE that mine will be ready to be picked up at 10 AM tomorrow. I've got $5 down, 10% off with my backstage pass and the rest will be paid for with gift cards. I'm happy.

Some of you guys might want to check with a local FYE to see if you can do a last minute preorder. Any time I've preordered a game at FYE, I am usually the only one on the list. Except for GH3, which had a grand total of two.

Might be worth checking out.

I just searched for my local Sams clubs. It lists the 360 bundle for $149.
I live in Colorado and you can select the stores for the state. There are about 4 stores that have the 360 bundle listed and 2 are close to my city. This is strange why it wouldn't show up for other cities.

I placed my preorder after the price dropped from $200 to $170.

My FYE said they don't carry new games anymore

I got a pre order in at video games etc. which is a small chain in my area. The sales people claimed nobody is going to want the game, and I shouldn't even bother. I still did of course.

I just got an automated call from GameStop that I can come in and pick up my game first thing in the morning. Commencing to rock in under 15 hours!

Got my Amazon shipping notice today and I should have it Wednesday. Though we have to leave for a 9 hour trip to my parents for Thanksgiving that night, so I won't be able to play it until Tuesday of next week. Ah well, at least I don't have to worry about finding it.

I'm wondering why some of you didn't just pre-order from Amazon a while back. You could always cancel it and 2-day shipping was only $15 for me.

Amazon shipped mine today (PS3). It was only $4 for me to upgrade to next day, so I'll have it tomorrow.

I didn't because I just didn't imagine demand would be what it is for $170.

Me = wrong. I'm still trying to decide whether to go to Wal-Mart and see if they are planning on letting some go at midnight.

I had a pre-order through Amazon, but cancelled it with thoughts of getting it at BB for the Rewards points. At least my local store isn't opening early, so I still hope to place an order online for pickup

Yeah, I got the call as well. I called to make sure it's cool if I wait to come in during my lunch break at work, and they said that's fine and that it'll be there.

That is what I'm hoping to do as well. The one I'm going to go to tomorrow opens at its normal time. So far, though, BB's website only says Coming Soon for the bundles. No store pick up or shipping yet.

Stupid me is getting sucked into the hype and I can't decide whether I should try to get one tonight at the midnight opening. I have no friends who play so I will be playing single player which I have heard is disappointing even knowing the game is setup more for multiplayer. Since it isn't one of those things I can't open and return I am stuck.

For all of us that are picking it up from EB/GameStop, don't forget to use this 10% off coupon (check out the link for instructions, etc...):

Looks like there is a chance that the big Band World Tour feature will not make its way into this game as an after-the-fact patch for online play.

Also, no hyperspeed option, for those interested in that.

I'm already hearing reports on different boards of 20+ people already standing in line at various Best Buy stores, and other such retail stores.

I'm also reading on two different boards that many WalMarts across the country aren't even going to have the bundles tonight, only the game, because they are saving the bundles for Black Friday.

Hopefully. Otherwise they have a long wait until 10am.

No, they are still there. Do a search for location of Ft. Collins and Loveland, Colorado. They are still online.
