Oh right, that would make the date 11/10/09 if you live in America. I had been wondering about that.

Mine is sitting at the National parcel force hub has been for a few days despite a delivery estimate of yesterday. I guess Game can only do so much if Parcelforce accidently ship it what can they do?

@Berbatov - Yeah I heard the same.

@ARG - Well a dickie bird told me that the message about holding the parcels back didnt get through to everyone in the chain and so naturally some will have got through.... :)

I know people that have been playing it solid to blast through the ranks and unlock all the weapons. I never told the poor soles that IW is going to reset the ranks on Tuesday, hahaha..

Are we actually pretending that game, play etc. are not breaking the street date for every game that comes out with their postal pre-orders and that this is news?

As much as I enjoyed MW I really don't get all the enthusiasm for MW2!

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.

God I hate the CoD series, especially because any news about the sodding game is an excuse to write about it. Gah. Wake me up in 2 weeks time when no one gives a shit anymore :/

Of course they bloody shipped it early. How else can they guarantee it will arrive in time given our postal system! If Activision or Microsoft don't understand that then they're idiots!

This article is just based upon happy customers thinking their MW2 has been sent, when its actually sat in the Parcelforce National Depot not moving until next week. Myns been there since Wednesday. I've checked track daily.

Mine arrived this morning from a well-recommended online website that I haven't used before. And at by far and away the best pre-order price I've seen anywhere. Will certainly be using them again!

Hey, i'm in Spain and i got an sms telling me that i can go to game and get my COD: MW2 whenever i want. The message is crystal clear: Your copy of COD:MW2 for PC is available at the shop you pre-ordered it. Pick it up!

Am i going to mall and coming back with empty hands or am i getting my copy?

I can't understand all the fuss about this game - the 1st was a good but nowhere near a brilliant or classic...Nothing COD 4 was spectacular. It just was a decent COD game...There's to much hype for this, and I bet the single player will be a decent but short game.

There is better out there!

Absolute bullshit GAME. My mate from when I was at school received his copy yesterday (07/11/09) and was playing it, so I don't how you can deny shipping them early...

Some big stores in Greece already sell the 360 version since Friday! They didn't lose the chance to begin cashing in! :)

I had an E-mail on Friday saying that it had been dispatched, I checked the ParcelForce website and mine just said "Express 24". It still says that now. Not sure what it means though.

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 ?
