    Not I, but getting to that point if not for Best Buy and Circuit City!  Wal-Mart has a better PC selection than Gamestop and EBGames do now........heh

     

     

     Also gotta remember Wal-Mart may not be huge in video games, but they are extremely huge all over the world, so if there was inside info to be had Wal-Mart would be one of the 1st to know this!  They have somewhere between 40k and 50k stores in the world.

     

    Wouldn't surprise me to see the game pushed again, its not ready anytime soon!

    Truth right there. Not sure whats going on with EBGames/Gamestop but their PC games section got turned into a castrated bargain bin 1 small section in the back of the store offer.

    FUNCOM - putting the FUN in disFUNctional !

    they are focusing on console sales because they are more lucrative, especially for used titles as pc games often have cd keys that can't be reused.

    I do buy games from walmart as they typically have lower prices than bestbuy and ebgames (which has f'ing retardedly expensive prices).

    You mean squeaky clean Wal-Mart ( what a crock ) is actually carrying the game? Astonishing.

    Give it some time. The religious right here in the US is too busy making up their minds if McCain is conservative enough for them (and praying he doesn't take Romney as VP) to represent them in our upcoming elections. Once the elections are over they'll have more time to go back to dictating the morals that other people should live by and can get to writing nasty letters to Wal-mart.

    Who has completely misled you or what have you misunderstood to think that the religious right has anything to do with censoring games?  You are seriously misinformed.  When the politicians were raising hell about GTA:San Andreas, Hillary Clinton, a socialist and Democrat, was in charge of the majority of the people raising hell.  See: http://clinton.senate.gov/news/statements/details.cfm?id=241138 OR http://www.nationalreview.com/pfeiffer/pfeiffer200507250800.asp

    If you were misinformed enough to think that the intent of the religious right was to tell people what to do, well then I am glad to straighten this out for you.  If you are just a republican/right wing hater, well then join the rest of the folks with Bush Derangment Syndrome.

     

    More on topic, I haven't seen anything from WalMart as to a move-back date for AoC.  I have one of their preorder cards that I paid $5 bucks for this game, and I am still being told to come by at midnight on the release date. 

    And for those who were wondering why someone would buy something like AoC at Wal-Mart, it is the closest "big" store within 45 miles of my area.  The Midwestern United States is like that sometimes.

    AoC can only pray it will be released in time or at least before autumn 2008. Otherwise it will be blown out of the water by ...no not WAR.. by Spellborn.
