    Thanks for the heads up. It's official. Gamestop will sell the game tomorrow. I just went there and they confirmed it, so I pre ordered my copy in full.

    This is the 1st time in 6yrs that I pre ordered a football title. I'm very excited and cant wait

      Yup. At first the guy went thru the whole "it releases 6/1 you can preorder it" then I asked if they got any news maybe in their e-mail & he was like "oh, yup, you can get it tomorrow!" So I can confirm also.

        Just as an FYI for any Canadian BB'ers, I called the Gamestop/EB where I pre-ordered BB and they said they didn't receive any emails about releasing it tomorrow.

        This is also likely due to the fact that I may in fact be the only person in Canada to have pre-ordered this game

          Stopped by real quick at a local game stop in San Diego and asked if they had it for sale today. No luck but they did say just come back tomorrow so I just pre-ordered and gonna end up picking it up tomorrow!

            But I also called bestbuy to see if they would be selling it to tomorrow. NOPEl, they said not till Tuesday.
            I work at a Best Buy in Ohio and before I left work today I checked this "hot news" section on our employee computers and there was a note stating that the release date has changed for backbreaker and to put it out on 5/29 if you have it in stock. My store does not have it in yet and checked other stores in our district on the computer and none of them have it either, maybe we will get a Saturday shipment of them. But just letting you guys know that Best Buy is able to sell them if they have them in stock! Usually my best buy only gets the larger titles in before the release date, every other game we get in on UPS the day of the release.

              Does online inventory work for this? I checked my stores online inventory and the store names were bold for BB.

                Yea, I got the GS text earlier today for my pre-order...but I took my pre-order off the day RDR came out. I wonder if a copy still came in because of my original pre-order? Eh, I still don't want the game, anyway, because I still haven't played the demo. Maybe it will hit PSN THIS Tuesday and if I like it enough, I will get it.
                Just cuz you pour syrup on ish....

                  This is great news. Now I will have an extended weekend to play the game. For only $50 bucks, the demo has proven that this game is worth my money. Football in May; you've got to love that.

                      If BB as well as Gamestop received notice that they could sell the game on the 29th I'm thinking Walmart may have gotten the memo too. Might be worth a check at midnight?

                        If you check inventory, and then go back to the product page, it will list the stores that have it in stock in the product page.

                        For example, when I do that, it's still in preorder mode, so from the store finder page you get no options, but then going back to the product page i get:

                        Store Pickup: Not Available
                        Find it at a Best Buy store.

                        SW LAS VEGAS NV - Available
                        MARYLAND PARKWAY NV - Available
                        Check more stores.

                        Not sure how reliable that is come tomorrow... but we'll see i guess.

                          might be worth it but I wouldnt bank on walmart employees getting or paying attention to that memo lol

                            Best buy as a company update the store stock on the site once a day around 8am and it is usually very accurate so if its showing it is in stock, I would go and check and if someone says its not released yet let them know the date has changed and there is a update in the action center.

                              I'll be looking on here for PS3 feedback before I purchase. Concerned mostly about camera playability and the fact that there was no demo for PS3 but all of a sudden PS3'ers can purchase tomorrow????

                              Just gotta make myself be patient to see the feedback on here....anyone else doing the same or are you all just going for it??

                                The camera for the most part is fine at least to me, even though it could be tweaked slightly in a couple of areas. On defense it is blast.

                                The much larger concern right now is the CPU AI offense or lack there of.
