Belgirion Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 just reserve it from a store near where you live...that way you don't have to worry about how long the game will take to ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UseDaAgression Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 They would probably ship it on the 28th anyway, but im calling cause i gotta change my order anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowbieOne Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Well, I preordered JK2 at Gamestop at my local mall about a month ago. At that time the date was April 3rd. But they have most definately changed the date to March 29th, so if EB has April 2nd still, give them a day or two and I'll bet they change it the 29th.

Squalliss Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Why you people order online is a mystery to me. Unless you have no EB or other game store, than sure it is right, but if you have a local EB or something you WILL have the game faster that way. The official in-store date is March 29th, 2002 - which means it will be in the store at the latest for March 29th, 2002. Ordering online means getting the order processed and then shipped out. Takes more time to get to you, unless you have overnight shipping which costs way to much for my taste. In my own experiences, in store shopping is much better when pre-ordering stuff.

ps2maddenman Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 I E-mailed eb about this earlier this morning, the response was that they get their dates from the vendors and they will change it soon "if the date is true", but the guy was friendly and said he was forwarding my message to his supervisor. He said wait around 4 or 5 days and it should be updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasuki Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 they don't have to process it if its preordered since I think cause its already done ahead of time. Thats why people pre order then they ship it the day they get it in wharehouses so it ahead of time I believe and the actual release isn't always the day stores get stuff. I had to wait an extra day after release to get max payne plus I don't got a car or liscense or permit. Darn that permit test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZePhyR Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 Preorders will probably arrive when the stores get theirs, so we may even get ours a day earlier cuz stores have to stock the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you have no EB or other game store, than sure it is right, but if you have a local EB or something you WILL have the game faster that way. Well, when I lived in Colorado I'd usually get my games from EB online 2-3 days before the stores got them. Including the local EB. Another reason I order online is the fact that it's usually cheaper. If I go to a store I'll usually pay $49.99(US) plus tax, not to mention the gas to get to the store. Usually when I order online it's at least $5 cheaper and I'm not paying tax, though I do have to pay the $4 for shipping. But it's still cheaper, and easier especially if you live in the middle of nowhere like I do right now. To be specific about why I ordered JK][ from EBgames.com: The free shipping and T-shirt of course. And the $10 off was just a bonus One interesting thing now that I think back on the games I've ordered online. Every game I've ordered has been a PC game. I've never ordered a console game. Guess it's just a tradition for me or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vrelic Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 Every game I've preordered has hit my front door around 12pm the day (and sometimes 1-2 days BEFORE) it hit the shelves.. I know you could preorder them IN STORE too, but it would be just fine if I got it at my door at 12pm the day it arrived in stores. (Also the extras like the tshirt and 10 dollars off are nice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altecs457 Posted March 15, 2002 Share Posted March 15, 2002 ebgames.com now has 3/27/2002 as the ship date, if this is true with the overnight shipping I should get the game on the 28th, one day before the stores! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear EBgames.com Customer, Thanks for pre-ordering Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast from EBgames.com! As an added benefit to ordering from us, we'll keep you informed of ship date changes. We are writing to let you know that the publisher has set a new ship date for Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast of March 27th, 2002. As always, EBgames.com will not charge your credit card until we ship your order. This means that, if I'm close enough to the shipping warehouse, I could be playing it on the 27th! :D [edit: I selected the quickest shipping option] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
