Today at 10.00am I rang my local Harvey Norman computer reatiler and asked have you got MTW yet? No but the Sales Rep from Activison is standing right here next to me, I'll just ask him now.
Quote" In the next day or two, definately no later than the 3rd September". straight from the horses mouth so to speak. The Harvey Norman guy, no names privacy, is the franchisee/manager of that section of the Harvey Norman store.
I have preodered and as soon as the stock is in my name will come up on their computer stock list and they will put aside a copy and call me. Hopefully I wont be at Work For The Dole that day and Ill be able to race in to town quite literally to pick it up.
I hope that makes us Oz members feel a little bit better, but will the anticipation kill us or can we surevive.

My local Harvey Norman was offering $10 off if you preorder MTW.

Don't get too excited,

I hope reports of 3 september are correct,
but I've just come home from EB and they have no shipping record for it yet,

meaning it may well be in country, but it's not being sent out yet.

They also said if Activision quote 6th septemeber, then Activision will keep to that schedule,
if it means they sit on their ass for a few days, then thats what activision have done in the past, and they don't expect any different this time.
I HOPE ACTIVISION SUPRISE EVERYBODY!!!
i truly do!
just don't count on it

I just trawled past K-Mart too, when i asked at the counter the guy checked...
and the boxes on the shelf are 'advertising',
just K-Mart never bothered to put the stickers on 'em...

All other outlets around here confirm 6th September.
