I know rainbow six vegas 2 has a date to be released tomorrow 3/18 but is this date a street date as it will be in stores already or a ship date?

My mom went up to Gamestop to put the rest of the money on it ($10) and they said it wont be there till Wednesday so 3/18 is just the ship date. That really pisses me off!

Given the frequency of this question, we really should devise a drinking game.

Yea, its pretty retarded. My mom told me this so she might be lying because I dont have my license yet so I wanted her to take me up to Gamestop so I could get the game right after school and she wanted me to wait till she goes to the gym with her mom but they wouldnt be back untill about 6:30 and I dont want to wait almost 4 hours for Vegas 2. When I reserve a game, I want to play it right when I get home lol. So Im going to call up to Gamestop after school tomorrow just to make sure.

It all depends on how far the Gamestop is from the distribution center. If they are close enough to it then sometimes they get their games on the ship date.

The discs aren't necessarily pressed and packaged in Canada. Most games are pressed in Mexico.

I'm talking about the distribution center people!! I'm not talking about where Ubisoft is located. Ubisoft develops a game (in this case it was Montreal), they then send a finish game to a company that produces the disc, packaging, and instruction booklet. It is then sent to a (or many) Gamestop distribution center(s), which then send the game out to Gamestops within their territory. These distribution centers have to have the game prior to the ship date. That way they can SHIP it to their stores for arrival on Wednesday. Sometimes these distribution centers will get the retail copy of the game a week or two before street date. Therefore sometimes the distribution center will ship the game out on Friday before launch, and some stores will start selling them on Tuesday. Its not rocket science, its just common sense.

I call it Release-date amnesia, it's an epidemic.

Customers usually realize the whole ship-date thing for one game. Then, they get so excited for the next one, they forgot everything they learned about ship dates the first time. It doesn't matter how many times you go over it.

There seems to be no known cure, unfortunately.
