Seriously, the game came out like what, a couple weeks ago? I've tried every store in town - completely sold out.
Sux for me.

My EB had no copies of WoW so they put all their copies of DAoC and EQ2 on the shelves and they weren't moving at all.

Ya every place had copies of EQ2 and DAoC, but no copies of WoW. I don't understand why stores get so few copies of a game they KNOW will sell out.

Me neither... I still fill sorry for Mythic, although all they did is cater to the whiners.
Lucky I still have my 2 accounts, if WoW ever bores me, ill have something to do, other than EQ2, which is worse than DAoC.

Im gonna try ordering it then, thanks though Ninja but I would like to have the CD's in case I need to format or something.
I've honestly never ordered a game online before, you guys got any prefrences for which places are fast/reliable?
I've always been about the instant gratification. Waiting for something to ship for me is like torture.

I hear a rumor that they recalled or had the retailers take them off the shelves due to over population.....
This was just mentioned by a guy at work, not sure how reliable the information is but he doesn't surf Realpoor so he musta heard it somewhere.

Im almost guessing this is true, I just called Gamespot again today and the guy said they definetly wouldn't have any copies before Christmas (9 days away). Which is insane considering if they put in an order right now they would have copies day before then, so they aren't ordering any more copies.
