I had to go to Walmart this morning to buy some shampoo.Of course i was checking out the games in electronics , when i noticed that my neighbor was working in the electronics section.

She is a sweet old lady and i told her i had to do some shopping for my little brothers birthday,cause I was gonna be working really late every night this week.

I told her that he really wanted this new game called World of Warcraft but i didnt see it for sale anywhere.

So, she said she would go into the back and check and see if it was there, and less than 1 min later she came back with my copy in her hand with a big smile on her face and told me no one had unpackaged them and they had a whole box full of them.

So basically , i would have to say im the first person in America to have a copy of Wow

    Even if you cant play its thats pretty funny. I remember the person that gave a little girl a harry potter book before it came out and the guy got in huge trouble.

    Hate to burst your bubble but hundreds of people have had it since friday, maybe even earlier. Walamart is very lax with release dates.

  • RhevinRhevin Member UncommonPosts: 611

    Well, at least he's the first one here on the boarsd that has it. But, it must be a great feeling knowing you have it gaurenteed (sp?). Lucky bastige.

    Damn that is a ugly sig.  I think I've seen it on about 10 different forums here in the last few days.  Bored are we.

     

    And yea I know of people that have had the game for 3 or 4 days atleast.  Any store that gets caught selling them early though can be fined a large amount of cash.  Wal-Mart usually is the worse offender at doing this since they normally have little old ladies like this one working that don't have the slightest clue as to what is going on.

    Wow .. where do you live man?

      As far as I know, here in Florida, Walmart would get charged a $500,000 fine for breaking a release date... not that rules have never been broken before ... but .. a ton of people already holding a copy? .. seems like it would get the attention of places like Gamestop.

    My Walmart sucks, they don't even have it in yet, this crappy town probably wont have it until two weeks later or something image

  • lilmanrunlilmanrun Member Posts: 42
    If waht you say is true... Then the person who gave it to you could get fired and walmart could get sued.. so i wouldnt be telling many people about it.

  • starman999starman999 Member Posts: 1,232

    Yeah the guy at EB told me he would have the copies on monday but he cant sell me one because he would get fired.

    I thought the game was not going to release till wednesday but hastings and Best Buy here are advertising that they will be selling it on tuesday. Whats that all about?

    It is being released on Tuesday because Tuesday is the 23rd....not Wednesday.

    Haha, well, I hit up around 17 forums yesterday, if you've noticed around 10 you're doing a damn fine job on the forums as well.
