I destroyed your poll for one with a day 1 option

because I will be buying it whichever way is quicker. whether that be driving an hour to the nearest game store, or waiting for steam/DD/gamersgate

I'm not going to play it ever because I think that game will suck.










:roll: Obviously that's bullshit, and to say that I've been salivating for this thing is an understatement, so the correct answer would be assoonasicangetmyhandsonacopyinanystore!
A few more days to go, y'all! :chug:

Pre-ordered a couple months ago. Kind of regret that because I have release date delivery, but I'd rather go to gamestop at 9 in the morning than wait till the mid afternoon :(

Day 1...well, Day 1 of the Australian release. Last year my local stores broke the street date and had the game out on shelves on the US release date, so hopefully they do that again this year.

Preordered it via amazon.de. Amazon usualy delivers on release day or the day before. German release date is Oct. 7th so I'll have my copy around Oct. 7th...

I would preorder and have it shipped, but the Fedex/UPS trucks don't come around here until the evening since we are the farthest away from any distribution center possible. I'd rather see about a digital version or run out to a store during that time.

If Onlive is getting 2k12, I'm going to demo that at midnight and again when I wake up, just like last year, until I can get the real PC version.

That's exactly why I ordered it through gamestop, they get it delivered on Oct 3rd to ensure you get it on the release date, I took this day off from work :wink:

Rent it from gamefly, report the game as missing, keep it for a year, then finally send it back when 2K13 comes out to stay under the "5 missing games and your account is cancelled" threshold

do u have to have 5 games missing AT ONCE to get ur account canceled or does it still get cancelled if you have lost 5 games over the course of your account but have still returned some of them.

That's just shady, why not just go buy it for $20.00 that's an even better idea :lol:

bowdown, It's at once, and I'm not sure 5 is the exact number. First time they cancelled my account, I had like 8 or 9 games at home, and the last time it was only like 5. It's shady but it means I can have five games out at a time for only $16 a month.

It's worth it with that method - at least if you're like me and live in a city with a Gamefly warehouse in it. Unlimited games for a year for the price of three new titles is not bad at all. 2K7 and 2K9 are the only 2K's I actually own

I might just preorder it @Amazon like I did the last few years. It's usually on time (the seventh is a saturday, that's okay for me) and they even make it cheaper if any store sells it for less money.

IIRC the 7th is a friday. ;-)
