GameStop Snubs Killzone 2 Out of a Midnight Release
With the release of Killzone 2 just a matter of a few weeks away, GamingFront.net have discovered that due to low pre-orders most GameStop Stores will not have a midnight launch party.
Over the past few weeks GamingFront.net have been plugging away trying to find out just how well the GameStop/Killzone 2 pre-order promotion is going. Now it appears as if most gamers that pre-ordered Killzone 2 will have to wait until their local GameStop store opens the day of the 27th.
Numerous GameStop locations throughout the west coast have stated that there are just not enough pre-orders of the game to warrant a midnight release.
This all comes on the heels of what many have perceived to be an absolutely botched pre-order promotion for Killzone 2. Gamers in North America that wanted to play the Killzone 2 demo before the games release had to pre-order the game from GameStop. The only problem is that all anyone has to do to play the demo is download it from the European PSN store. To make matters worse, GameStop has been accused of under advertising the game. At most GameStop stores nation wide there is a severe lack of advertising for the game. Often times the only note of its release is on the coming soon board.
Did GameStop/Sony botch the pre-order Killzone 2 deal? Let us know what you think
