Re: MW2 being sold at Big W tomorrow.
I highly doubt it. From now until tomorrow, one of the bosses will have to make sure that a copy isn't sold until next week.

Good luck though. If I didn't have 2 copies pre-ordered, I would check my local Big W to try and get me a copy.

Very likely. But then again, as the same with ODST, why do these stores receive 'AAA' titles one week in advance?

Will probably call up Macquaire Centre BIG W tomorrow, just for the hell of it.

I highly doubt it will be on the shelves though ...

Nah. I highly doubt this would happen. I've worked in the home entertainment section of Big W before and the boxes that come in have embargo stickers all over it. And if that's not enough, the head office sends emails to every store stating not to sell them

All that means is that MW2 is part of this weeks catalogue (because it comes out before next weeks - ie next thursday). They won't be (deliberately at least) selling it before street date. $82 isn't bad though.

Most likely it would be in the Big W weekly catelogue but why does it say starts tommorrow - ends 11 November? Shouldn't it says something like this, starts 10 november - ends xx november? I just find it confusing how there is no street date on the page, kinda seems that some people will have a lucky day tommorrow.

No. Because everything else in the catologue will be on sale starting tomorrow. Perhaps there is some text missing near the pic of cod which should say ' not available til...' but i dont have the catalogue to check..

Yea but if everything was on sale that day, there should definitely be a note or something that has "releases Nov 10" on the MW2 advert.

Re: MW2 being sold at Big W tomorrow.
Maybe people are forgetting that the people who run the BigW catalaogues likely aren't obsessed with video game release dates and other such finnicky details?

Everything in this weeks catalogue will have had a blanket thrown over it re dates.

The catalogue starts tomorrow. MW2 falls within that catalogue period. How many 13 years olds in this thread?

Hopefully that means they're foolish enough to sell it tomorrow. I'm not too fussed either way, I'd rather pick it up at Kmart for $79 and save myself $3. Yes, I am a tight ***.

Didn't think dogs could be employed. Good on 'em. Stick out tongue [:P]

I called two stores.. ladies on the phone corrected me replying with "Did you mean CoD: Modern Warfare?" They have no clue what's going on. Cool [H]

Re: MW2 being sold at Big W tomorrow.
correct, all it means is, the sales start thursday, and its in the catalogue cause it will sell during the catalogue selling period. However it wont actually be released untill the due date. Its illegal for them to do it.
