I now have a feeling we won't see this thing until 2009. Good job Konami.

Amazon still says the 11th, by the way.

Best buy showing the 12th:

EB shipping the 11th

I may check my local EB/Gamestop Monday to make sure.

I hope we see this next week.

Amazon, Best Buy, EB all give me hope

Thanks guys, for finding those.

I was one click away from paying more than double yesterday at shopto.net. I even emailed the site to ask how long delivery would take. They responded in minutes and said 7-10 days and it would go out Monday.

I guess I'll hold on now that these three sources seem to be in agreement. I gotta have my PES.

I'm loving FIFA 09 but its lack of late game offensive formation changes and unintuitive position for position subs are killers for me.

You might have region issues ordering a European copy too... might want to check that.

If the release date stays solid on Monday, I wouldn't worry. We should see it later in the week here in the US.

I may preorder from EB/Gamestop Monday so they order a copy for me. Usually pre-ordering is pointless, but for games like PES they might not get them in right away. I want to sell back Fifa 09 as well and get what I can for it. Terrible AI issues ruin the offline game for me.

You may have something there on the pre order because the 2 gamestops I called didn't even know what PES09 was.

You can buy games from overseas with a PS3 because its region free. Last year I got PES08 from sendit.com in Ireland. Great to deal with

Just placed my order on Amazon. Thought about it all day, trying to decide whether it's worth it or not. After the playing the demo more and more, I finally decided to just go for it. Only $40 on Amazon with the pre-order special and free shipping, which takes longer, but costs $5 less.

Just went to my local Gamestop and pre-ordered it for 360. The shipping date is still Nov 11th according to them. They had it right on an in-store ad as well. I should have it later this week hopefully.

Can't wait to pick this up in a day or two!
