More Info on Australian Release...

Rang up Harvey Norman today to speak to a mate of mine about it... And he said that there had been some legal issues that HES/Sidhe have to clear up first, of course he didn't tell me, but he said that he had been telling people that it will be there on the 12th, but they expect the end of December...

I rang up a mate in a local computer store, and GameDude in Brissy, and they said the same thing..

Can anyone confirm this?

This is BULLSHIT...................

I am not waiting till the end of DEC for a game i pre orderd at HV 2 months ago.

I'll sell my ps2 for a xbox and get a xbox NRL game from EB if I have to......

I rang EB Carindale, Brissy about 5 minutes ago (11:00am) and they told me that all platforms will be available on friday morning opening at 9:00 and they will be giving me a call on Thursday night.

Thats awesome!! I live just uo the road from Carindale so if my KMart doesn't have it at 8am I know i'll be able to get it from EB at 9am. Very Happy! This is going to be the best day of my life! I have got half a carton of Johnnie Walker cans and a couple of doobs I will be in heaven!!!

I hope i get it on December 12 so bad, i'm planning to go into Harvey Norman early, i hope they ring me aswell on Thursday night.

I can't believe that GPstore.com.au are getting the game on Saturday or Sunday (dispatching next Monday) - especially being a "computer item" only retailer and extra especially that they are a subsidary of GP in NZ which dispatched the game earliest in NZ.

I thought it may of been due to the fact they are situated in Queensland, but EB stores in Brisbane are selling them on Friday morning.

Would anyone know why this is the case? Anyone in the know??

To me it's not the end of the world getting it next Tuesday, but i'm a bit peeved that i made the wrong choice of retailer - when Games Warehouse and topshop have been impecable in previous purchases/dispatches.

i just recieved a call frome eb games at woden saying "we are 98% sure that we will have nrl on ps2 for you to pick up on friday, also when you pick up nrl you can purchase smackdown here comes the pain or true crimes or prince of pursia for $50"


IM EXCITED!!

 

[Raider_69]

kiwi_man i would suggest either True Crimes or Smackdown, that pursion thing is crap!!

i made the call to EB and they told me that friday i can come and pick my copy up, they open at 7am so i told him see you a 6am
