I've been making the rounds to every store in my area this week. If I go early in the morning, I'm sure to call them later in the day just to be sure. Pretty sure they're starting to recognize my voice.

Gamersyde is simply brilliant. These guys are masters of doing video games justice when viewing online. This comparison video does an excellent job of showing the improvements to textures, resolution and framerate, bravo.
Edit: Shouts out to EHTONK, great video work sir!

I've been doing the same. It really surprises that the non gaming stores I've gone to don't sell it early, seeing as the people working on the media section are clueless on video games.
Gamersyde is merely hosting that video. It was made by someone that also posts on GAF.

Yeah a lot of people don't realize you can post any 60fps gameplay on Gamersyde.

I went to my local game shop this morning and they had them all in a box on the counter. I asked if I could buy one and the guy said they're not allowed to sell them yet.
So, I looked around the store for a few mins when I noticed he had walked away and a young girl was there now. So I tried my luck a second time and she took one out and started ringing it up!!
I thought I was in luck!
The first guy, who I presume was the manager, came back and told her not to do that and that "this guy" (me) had already tried to buy one today.

Did they follow you around the store, you know, just in case you wanted to buy another street dated game?

The guy was staring at me until I left.

Just like that. I was waiting for him to do the two-finger-eye-point "I'm watching you" thing.
How many blue robot women do you think they get in there?

Think I'm going to visit Chinatown, they usually have game early.
Amazing comparison tool. Gamersyde is the best confirmed once again.

What the heck? That sucks.
Shit. I just pre-ordered on Amazon with prime thinking I'd get release day delivery but instead it's showing a July 31st expected delivery date. BOOOOHopefully this changes...
That is odd, maybe because you waited too long. Mine says:
I did preorder about a month ago tho..

I assume I can start the download from my phone while I'm at work, right?

You're right, hats off to EHTONK! I'm checking out more of his comparison vids now, great body of work.
Aside, Gamersyde deserves big props for the video player that supports these sort of high quality, high framerate comparisons.

Yes, but make sure to have your PS4 on standby.

Oh, she's always on standby.
They already discounted the game 10 dollars for everyone. If you want more of a discount and still have your old ps3 copy gamestop is having a great promo. If you bought it digital, tough luck sorry.

My store in Manhattan ego ALWAYS sells their games early said Sony is being real funny with the game. I called them Friday. He said maybe today though.

Gamestop has it for £29.97. It's where i have mine pre-ordered. I've been checking on HotUKDeals over and over but I can't find anything better.
They are out of stock now though :/
Thanks.

Well once it flips from pre-order to released you can download it remotely. Like they said just make sure you have your PS4 on standby and use the website to put it in your download queue.
right? come the fuck on
