Why is this Game Shipping on a Friday? (14th)

[Ankido]

If you ordered online you better have chosen over night because your game is not coming in until Monday which really sucks for Friday release. Amazon is actually really good out here in California. I ordered over night because of the 5min demo. I didn't know you can walk in store and get it. So $70 right there.

Newegg has the release date listed as the 12th. I've got good faith in Newegg that they will ship the game on the 12th and it'll be here Friday morning, without overnight shipping.

Amazon and Gamestop both have release day delivery options and they're not that pricy at all. Amazon is $5.98 for non-prime members to have it shipped with release date delivery, which is a dollar more than Standard (not the free option).

Sure, some people ordered from Philsgamesonline.com (random made up site) that will ship it normal and some will have to wait, but I doubt the problem you're suggesting will be that widespread.

I agree. $5.98 is not a bad price to pay when you include the fact you are paying $56.99 for the game with no tax.

They do have tax though. At least they did when I was considering ordering it from amazon earlier today.
