My local GAME won't stock Army of Two

oliath · 13-03-2008, 02:59 PM

I popped in there and asked why they still didn't have any copies and if it was sold out... the guy tried to tell me it hadn't been released yet!!!

I informed him that i had already picked it up on friday from HMV and he then admitted that GAME had had an argument with EA who were refusing to deliver any stock to them..

What the!!?

Anyone shed some light on this?

It was the GAME on oxford street. Not sure if they are all the same.

I think you are right. When I went looking for the game at my local GAME, they still said it hadn't bee released, but it was two days after the launch day. In then end i got it from Sainsbury's for ten quid less so I'm not gonna complain

A few people online from the UK have said that their local games are saying that this game isn't out yet too!!

What the heck is going on?

I also had a friend who kept checking into his GAME to see if it was in as they kept telling him it was all sold out... so i told him to go to HMV and they had loads of copies.

Surely this is damaging sales?.... and more importantly... making less people for me to play online with

yeh you have a good point. I've also been hearing a lot about an argument between GAME and EA on other threads

They're was a dispute about the price EA were selling fifa street to game i think - i'm not sure how that links to not selling army of two though.

I'll try remember to check game tommorow.

its really silly because lots of people are saying that they cant get hold of it cos game is telling them its sold out..

EA if you read this... please grow up and sort this dispute out cos its damaging the game.

The dude told me that GAME had an argument with EA, then he started calling EA. So I told him to shut up, and walked out.

See what I do to protect you, EA. How protective am I?!
