Probably a new store stockier. Saw them in storage, and just put them out.

Aye, I imagine that happens all the time though, with things getting put out early before the release date, not matter what it is (DVDs, books, games). And with the shipments, it really depends on the site. Like the site they kept mentioning said "We'll ship it to you when we get it" so its just how it happens. Yes, its unfortunate for us who preordered it, maybe the wrong way/wrong store, but what else are we going to do?

Yeah. It makes me mad though.

There's a comic book store that sells console games near me.
It's known for selling a limited supply of copies early.
*sigh* if only it sold PC games.
i would of bought my game from there and save myself from paying shipping fees.

These stores should be disciplined by EA!

It's illegal for them to be sold early in Aus - I believe the stores cop a fine if they breach the code.

I totally expected it to be sold today... well not sold... I expected people to get it SHIPPED to their homes early, but I'm dissapointed in the STORE for selling it early. Ah well. You only have to wait until TOMORROW, guys, cheer up! I gotta wait until Friday!
