    Default Where to buy Hard Copy...

    I hate to create another one of these post... however, I'm looking all over for a place to buy the game today, but can't find any. Ideally I was going to use my Best Buy gift card for it... but it seems that they will not be getting it till the 25th (that's what the website said... could be wrong though).

    I know that the release does not always stand for the day you can purchase it at a store, but wasn't it suppose to be relased today, Feb. 23rd?

    If anyone knows where I can get it... or have found it at stores today (be it Walmart, Best Buy, EB-Games, etc) please post... if not, let this post die!!!

    ps... im the USA (EAST Coast!)

    For whatever reason this was considered a low profile release by many retailers hence it is arriving thursday or friday for most of them

    you could just buy it off Steam

    my eternal thanks to the EB team for making R:TW such an epic game, and to TWC and all other modders for pushing the boundaries with each Total War title .

    alot of people prefer not to so they can have the box version, discs etc and not have to go through the hassle of downloading a huge game through steam.

    Depends on the person i guess

    For an opening day release on smaller titles, you usually have to go to gamestop or EBworld.

    South Carolina nothing here guys...

    Although I did find ETW at walmart on release day hiding under the metal rack in the software title section, maybe worth a try.

    Anyone go to walmart yet?

    In Oklahoma here...checked Target, Gamestop, Best Buy and several Wal-Marts. Nothing.

    Gamestop says 'maybe' tomorrow and Target has an in-store sign that reads "available 2.23". But they 'don't know' when it'll be in...

    Regardless, if I get it tomorrow I'll post many screenshots...

    I'm in Summerville and Walmart has it on the shelf 2:30 here
    In the garb of old Gaul, with the fire of old Rome,
    From the heath-covered mountains of Scotia we come;
    Our loud-sounding pipe breathes the true martial strain,
    And our hearts still the old Scottish valour retain.
