That's an estimate, you should get it a day after it ships.

IF ITS TRUE THEN EA WILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO GIVE THE GREEN LIGHT! man i will be mad if this has happened because we have to wait till next week so my question is If this wal-mart thing is true will EA Make us wait or are they required to let the other stores sale it early if so i will be calling around starting tommorrow thanks p.s i am sorry i posted this if this is not allowed then take the links out i am sorry mods but to prove my point copy and paste these links thanks now can someone tell me if these guys are telling the truth or if they are lying thanks http://easports.boards.ea.com/messages?14@@.3bd758d1! brand=www.&ticket=0&decode=999 http://easports.boards.ea.com/messages?14@@.3bd7571a!brand=www.&ticket=0&decode=999

After reading what the one guy on EA's site had to say, I'm pretty sure he doesn't have the game. He didn't give any detailed information that we haven't read in previews and was unable to prove that he had the game.

Unless I see some proof, then I really doubt anyone has the game. Anything's possible (ie: NCAA fiasco), but there were a bunch of guys who proved they did in fact have the game.

I'm gonna be at the beach from the 8th to the 13 so i have to wait 4 long days to play it.

Just wondering for you guys with past Midnight releases. How long does it usually take to get in and out with the game. I know it depends on town etc. But if i pay in full i know it helps sometimes to get the game quicker. But i was just wondering if some of you guys with some midnight release experiences could share some stories about how long it took for you guys and roughly how many people where there. I might just decide to go after work with a friend of mine if i feel the midnight release will take too long.

When I waited out at midnight for Halo 2, they had separate lines, those who paid for it in full and those who didn't.

I didn't pay for it in full but still got in in about 20 minutes.

My EB isn't having a midnight release for Madden, but they are opening 2 hours earlier. So I'll just get it then.

Preordered mine through GameStop.com with overnight shipping...so I expect it August 9th...regardless of the rumors.

Why would you order it from there?
