that sucks, I already pre ordered, why would they put it out a week early? That means some people get to play it before everyone else, there was a bonus for preordering in store too, but it was RTTS points, sucks that you have to decide between the 2, cuz I was gonna do franchise too

This would be such a great option if they actually D/Ld it to your HD right when you bought it, then gave you access to it at 12:01.

It would be updated and ready to go right away, I wonder what keeps them from being able to do this?

I guess people could change the date and time on the PS3, disconnect the internet and have access right away?

Unless they had a internet time check before activating built in? Good question...

I have to think that it simply comes down to the fact that that would be a lot of programming work, for a return that is arguably minimal.

Some sort of activation code system would take hours, maybe an entire day, to code, at the very least... And that's just so a somewhat small group of people can enjoy The Show like 30-60 minutes earlier.

I mean don't get me wrong, it'd be great... but if I were a developer I don't think I'd do it.

Steam has that preloading feature on PC.
