The limited, Legendary, and console bundles I can understand but the standard edition? It's not like it's that hard to print the discs and packaging.

I highly doubt we will run out of regular editions, I think we'll be plenty good on that but we were warned from corportate to let people know to be on the safe side. They said demand is massive.
Personally I think people will be fine on pre-ordering regular edition, but like I said any console / special edition is 100% sold out and anyone who thinks they're getting this game on launch day by just rolling up to Gamestop without a pre-order doesn't have a chance.

Haha come Tuesday the 14th in the afternoon we are gonna hear the screams of a million angry gamers that they can't buy Halo Reach until its back in stock.

like I said on your wall we were literally turning away pre-orders for the game from our store today and people couldn't believe it. They thought we were being jerks or something but we literally can't take pre-orders on those three versions. Everyone knows how much we as a company HATE turning away pre-orders since it boosts our numbers and performance.
To put that into perspective we never sold out of any version of Halo 3 or MW2 in pre-orders.
|
At the stores you work at did you have roughly more or less pre-orders for MW2 (360 version) then Halo Reach?
|
MUCH more than MW2.
Put it this way, SC2 was a huge game and at the MIDNIGHT launch of SC2 we had way more Reach pre-orders than Starcraft 2 did on its launch night.
Obviously my store isnt a reflection of the entire company but after seeing what I saw today there is no longer a doubt in my mind we are about to see a new record on first week sales for a single platform.
