GAME has said that emails sent to customers claiming copies of Modern Warfare 2 have already shipped do not mean people will be receiving it before launch day, 10th November.
"I can confirm that the emails are part of the automated process," a spokesperson told Eurogamer today.
"The tracking numbers were provided as part of the process we have with our delivery partners to ensure that accurate delivery messages are given to customers at all times. We're doing everything we can to ensure that MW2 is with them in time for launch day."
Similar emails went out to HMV customers earlier in the week, leading the retailer to issue a similar denial, declaring: "HMV would never knowingly break a street date."
There are other reports of Modern Warfare 2 getting out into the wild via retail, however, and we're looking into those now. Can Activision stop the signal?

Thanks crofto
A sensible post in an unsensible world. Don't people normally worry about reviews being embargo'd (spelling?) until after the release date? I thought it normally meant the publisher was trying to sell as much as possible for the reality dawned on the gaming public. |

I tried to get a copy when they were being put into the glass cabinet at my local GAME. They were not having any of it.

This hype disgusts me.
It's like X Factor when it comes to Christmas No 1 (albeit it slightly more justified). You can't stop it. I hate you, Activision. I'll hate you even more if you bring out an X Factor: Rock Band game. |

Oh my god...a video game has shipped early?
What will we do?, this will lead to famine, pestilence, war, cats marrying dogs, and the marshmallow man becoming real. Life is over as we know it. Burn your consoles, smash your games magazines..... Give over,it's a sodding video game, who the fuck cares if it comes out early or not? What effect does it really have on the world? Anyone got a sustainable answer for this comment ? |
