Street Date Smash: Drake Delivers

Kotaku AU

uncharted 2 early deliveryWell, not quite. We’ve yet to hear of a retailer putting Uncharted 2: Among Thieves on sale before tomorrow’s street date. But we have heard of one retailer delivering it early.

Kotaku reader David sent in this pic of his copy of Uncharted 2, complete with branded satchel. He’d preordered it from GAME over the weekend and it arrived this morning.

Anyone else managed to get their hands on it early?

    @ http://www.game.com.au – their website suggests it’s out also… they might mean online only, but by the day is out, it might be out completely…

    Calling all JbHiFi’s, not happening. Even the ones mentioned in this thread (though who would admit it over the phone) will try my local at 5pm, see what happens, I’m pretty sure they don’t want to face the fine.

    Please wait until tomorrow. I’m already being called JB groupie by the too cute rawk chicks with Kirby tattoos behind the counter. If I rock up today, after picking up Brutal Legend yesterday and then AGAIN for Metroid tomorrow how will I look?

    Who cares, I think I’d rather wait till the official street date so I can get the special steel book case from JB Hi-fi.

    It isn’t Halo or COD so it doesn’t really matter.

    It’s just like any other street date smash for regular games.
