Gamestop has ALWAYS recieved games the day after the "release date". Big stores like Wal Mart receive copies early and that's why they're able to sell them a day earlier than Gamestop. I have no idea why this difference exists, but it's been that way forever. :P
The only exceptions I know of are midnight releases and perhaps some of the few bigger games that didn't release at midnight, but I'm not sure.
