Namatacka Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 So, I come home from work to see a nice shining copy of New Vegas sitting at my desk. Pre-Order has come early from Game! Hooray! I rip away the packaging, click install, and get confronted by the Steam "You cannot install this game yet as it has not been released." I has it in my hands! So yeah, just a rantette. Anyone else in the UK get their pre-orders early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delusibeta Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 You do realise that staggered releases have been common since day dot, and it's only recently that they've been able to enforce them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namatacka Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 Of course, which is why it's not a problem for me. Sometimes it's just nice getting home to a copy of that game you've been looking forward to sitting there waiting for you a day, or two earlier than you expected. It's like Christmas ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soot00 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Retail is kind of the same way. When I first purchased Fallout 3 on release day, Best buy had a locked cabinet full of endless copies of Fallout 3 but there was a sign pasted on the front. DO NOT SELL TIL <insert Date here>. So I assume a few retail stores get copies in advance of release date but can't sell it even tho they have hardcopies. My recently purchased Gamespot copy of New Vegas is same way. This time there is a nice sticker on the box that says, DO NOT SELL TIL 10/19/2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
