Ok, lol I coulda done that *smacks self in face* but thanks for lookin it up for me

[xXSniper1432Xx]

no problem

Just use the 'check store stock' option. That should also tell you when the game has arrived.

All the local Best Buys and Future Shops near me have not shown it as 'in-stock' yet and their release dates still say Oct 17th.

[BlackOps_Ollie13]

I recall reading somewhere that a Best Buy employee said he checked and they were expecting a delivery of BF2142 on Tuesday night (10/17).

[Talus]

Yes, most stores will probably get getting their shipments today. I am sure quite a few people have already capitalized on this as I have seen a HUGE increase in the number of players on the 1 BF2142 live server and they are names I do not recognize. Basically, the server is always full now 48/48.

I was told the best buys across the street from my office would have it on the shelf early Today: Tuesday.

[vospader42]

kool, ill go check it out tonight and see if they got it

Most stores dont get there daily shipments till 2 or 3 pm. EB is the exception, most times they get theres at 12.

This is correct. I just came back from an EB and that's what the sales rep said to me. BF2142 is arriving today, but since it's raining hard...the Purolator guy is running late (approx 1 hr). I'll just have to make another trip later this afternoon. :D

All of my local (Kansas City) shops are saying tomorrow around 1pm.

[Orphious2006]

I just came from EB games, GameStop, and Walmart....Walmart didnt have a clue but EB Games and GameStop bith said that the 17th was the ship date eaning they would have it tommorow.

[ELI]

[KhanMan]

In Ottawa, ON the game is not at Futureshop, Best Buy or EB Games... you may want to try later in the afternoon to call the stores but I was at all 3 and no dice!

[dL.]

For Best Buy in Canada and Future Shop, the flyers say Oct 19th. How would I know if it is available today, tomorrow, or Thursday indeed?

LOL I'm in Ottawa and I jumped on here to see release status - I wasn't expecting to find a local report... thanks bro! I expect it will be in tomorrow; But, Walmart and FutureShop have been beating EB games by a day for the last year or so.

I just got off the phone with the best buy near my house (Houston, TX) and they did not have any in yet, and did not know when they would come in, but they were on order...the pre-orders only. Shelf copies were not being shipped to that particular store as of yet.

My bestbuy still had like 6 preorder boxes Sunday. All it is is a code, I knew I should've bought all of them and then emailed codes for paypal to people who aren't near best buy stores.

[Freakboy]
