This shows that the shipping date has been moved forwards to the 23rd. I wonder if this will effect Europe (currently 9th November). I really hope this is true, I'm really looking forwards to this game, it will be one of the best games coming out this year for PS3

Awsome news, I might be able to get it sooner.

lol, Ps owners dont give a rats stinking ass about smg.

 Maybe they brought it forwards because it would be ready on time then, and they want it to come out as soon as possible so that they can drive sales earlier rather than later

What kind of numbers are we expecting from this game? First week US I say around 300k, first week Japan around 50k.

@soriku

I dont agree with you so much.. Im going to buy SMG and ratchet and clank.. wont be a problem for me. Isnt mario galaxy coming out in december?

Mars, I don't know what planet you're living on, but anybody with a Wii (and some cases people who don't have one yet) will be picking up SMG. Myself included. I just want Ratchet first. Loves me those weapons.

The game was delayed a week then pulled back to original release date.. interesting.

Read what i said, Ps owners.

Soriku was talking about Sony scared about Ratchet not selling well enough with a more hyped platformer being release next to them so that is why they moved it back.
