Canada and the USA Bret Hart

[CanuckJ]

So I'm reading you can get a download code from best buy when pre-ordering the game so that you can play as the hitman right away after purchase. So I went to Best buy today and they don't even have a pre-order available for it and the guy i talked to had no clue what I was talking about.



So I went to 2 other stores and then didn't know either. I'm thinking up here in Canada(I'm in Alberta) since Bret Hart is on the Canadian cover he will be available right away no matter where a person was the buy the game from but I want comfirmation. Does anybody know how I can verify my theory? How can I contact THQ themselves beause they have really dropped the ball in my opioion based on my responses up here.

Marcus used to post here. Maybe he'll see it. I'm wondering the same thing. Can't really leave him out if he's on the cover right? I don't even have a Best Buy here. They did say there was some other way to get him.

The guy at EB games seemed to think that for sure if Hart is on the canadian cover theirs no way he would'nt be a playable character right off the bat.

Edit: posted at the official smackdown vs. raw forums and got this reply:

Canada gets the hitman no matter what..
proof
thats from the WWEGames twitter page

@chrisroy if you buy SvR 2011 in Canada, you get Bret Hart no matter what, that's why that version isn't listed on our pre-order page.

I really hope at some point there is another way to get Bret Hart, I don't want to cancel my amazon pre-order.

He has GOT to be a DLC at some point, you got any connections in Canada? maybe some one up here could buy it for ya and ship it to ya.
