Getting info from various sources that WotG has been pushed back to after thanksgiving (23rd at the earliest). Need confirmation of this info please asap.

edit: Confirmed by POL, due to manufacturing issues.

Some stores are getting a delayed shipping of the PC version (Some even the PS2/360 ones). I called up my gamestop and they said it should be in tomorrow. Pre-ordered the PC version.

I just called my store (One in Cincinnati) and they said they would get it in tomorrow.

Which is good, I'd hate to break my rule about shopping on Black Friday.

My Gamestop said they're not having it delivered until Thursday. I asked if they're open Thursday (Thanksgiving). She laughed at me.

I called EB, Future Shop & a local gaming store today

All 3 said Thursday/Friday maybe..... EB said most likely Monday!

/sigh

(in ontario Canada btw)

It's tommarrow here also. I'm not really shocked as it didn't even ship till today.

All Local GameStop/EB Games/BestBuy seem to be delayed in the Downtown area of San Diego D:
Calling all game retailers to get my hands on a copy now ><

EDIT>> Helps If I add days... Most are saying Friday here.

[Epical]

Our store has 12 copies "In Transit" which means we should be getting them tomorrow.

I was about to cry, thinking I'd missed some great online discount deal. I now realize that price is in crazy euro dollars .

[Kyreth]

*shrugs* OK, some loser factory in China fucks up, we get WoTG on Black Friday. I can deal.

I don't mind. Gives them more time to fix the USB bug that's hosing everyone's framerate over and we'll probably get another client update Thursday to fix it.

I preordered both PC and 360 versions, looks like they only get 360 and PS2 tommorw. I guess I better start patching my 360 cuase so far I only updated PC FFXI.

[bombard]

lol @ Gamestop. They called me saying my preorder was in, i drive 25 minutes to the store to have them tell me it hasn't come in yet. I tried to persuade the store manager to bring it to my house when it came in since he's an idiot, but that didn't get me anywhere. I want my 10 bucks in gas i spent to get there back damnit ; ;

Sucks for those who can't get it until after Thanksgiving... everyone else will have monopolized all the new profitable activities by then.

[Demosthenes11]

Just called and was told friday at the earliest, monday at the latest.
Gonna be fun navigating through waves of GTA-buying moms on friday -.-

[Koga]

Best Buy Mission Valley says they will have the PS2 Copy in but the PC Shipment wont be in till Friday at earliest D:
fucking ps2 users

[kuronosan]

I called my local store today and they said they were supposed to get it today in their shipment, but it wasn't there. It should be in tomorrow, although I'm going to go ahead and guess it may not be there then either.

Either way, SE's blowing smoke up everyone's asses. Way to hype an expansion and not deliver. XD

Seriously. Manufacturing issues? You would know well in advance if manufacturing problems would cause your product not to ship, and if it were a matter of defective merchandise then it wouldn't be delayed 1 day. If it was that serious of a problem they should and would have notified us sooner.

Where did you order yours from? I am also in Seattle. I pre-ordered mine from the EB Games in Pacific Place (downtown Seattle), as I work 2 blocks from there. I just called and they said they will have it in tomorrow (wednsday) for me to pick up.

They feigned ignorance on any type of delay.
