lol, it's allready finnished, don't u know anything about video games stores? obviously not, the companies tell the stores that till they are ready to release them, like with concols, they have many in the back, but is not allowd to say, go into the back if your ever allowed and look, you'll see, sometimes they even keep games in there for months, even though people say it's not ready, when it actully is, so look once in awhile
If you knew anything about game stores you would know that they get them a day in advance...which is why you get a call the night before a reserve game comes in that it will be in for the next day, just so everyone gets a copy. Games are never the months in advanced...it would be stupid because thats possible time to fix problems with the game. Well some places do No, No places do. Stop trying to dig yourself out of a hole...your just digging deeper.
Actually, companies sometimes do ship their games to the retailers like a week in advance (and no more than that). I've only seen it once and that was done with Halo 2. My brother and I went to Target like three to four day before the game came out and we saw plenty copies of the game on rack behind the class. "Sorry, not until November 9th. If we sell it early we could get sued," said the clerk when my brother asked about it.
I believe there was a rumor that Nintendo shipped the Wii early in the same matter... but that's a system, not a game.
Bottom line: It is very, very, very (x10) rare but companies have shipped games a week in advance of the release date, but the retailers will never sell them before the release date.
