    ASB '05 at Best Buy on 3-14-04?

    I have pretty much accepted the fact that the game is not supposed to come out until 3-23-04. Well, we got our Saturday paper today (but it comes with Sunday ads in it), and was browsing through the Best Buy ad, and they have ASB '05 advertised in there! It didn't have a "available xxxxx" graphic over it either. I didn't heed it too much excitement due to the fact that Best Buy has done this before...advertised a game coming out and saying it is in-store, when they don't have it. Heck, even BB website says "available 3-25-04".

    However...I went into the store to look for something else and asked an employee about it. He said that he has seen it in the back, and they are waiting to put it on the shelves Sunday, March 14, 2004. I asked if I could buy one right then. He went into the back to get it for me, but apparently, it was being inventoried, so I couldn't get it.

    I fully intend to stop in tomorrow and check on this! Most likely, Best Buy is once more mistaken, but I will cross my fingers and hope against hope.

The rset can be a ttoal jmulbe and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

    I am curious what they tell you. Considering ASB_Man as said he will let us know as soon as the game goes gold .

    Unless that sneaky ASB_Man has a surprise in store for us

    However, I have never heard of a game being released on a Sunday.

          Maybe he was confusing it with MVP.

                If any of this is true which I highly doubt, that would be the bomb. There is a possibility that I would be streaking in the street, lol.

                            I just looked through my weekend paper and Toys R Us has ASB2005 (XBOX) as an online order only. Best Buy has it in its ad in the video game section, ASB2005 (XBOX). So I assume ASB2005 will be in stores tomorrow? I believe companies pay to have thier ads in Best Buys circulur,, so maybe this is not a type-O.
