This is my first time pre-ordering online. I live in Hawaii, will I get my game on the exact date of release or will you ship it on that date?

You live in Hawaii, why are you playing games? Get out of the house, go to the beach, surf, board, etc... Do what most of us can't do... and thats why we are home playing games :(

If you have an Xbox One, you could just got digital with it or Gamestop. Right now Gamestop is offering "digital" pre-orders. Basically, you're buying $60 in XBL credit that you redeem on the Xbox Games Store, but you still get Gamestop's pre-order bonuses.

You will not get it on release day. From Amazon release day shipping info "Note: Release-Date Delivery isn't available to Amazon Lockers, Alaska, Hawaii, international destinations, P.O. Boxes, or APO/FPO addresses." Link -

As long as you pre ordered like you said and either have a prime account and selected the free shipping or if no prime paid for the release date shipping you will get it on the day of release :)

No, even if you live in the contiguous US, this game does not qualify for release date shipping unfortunately (because the Monday prior to release is a holiday).They will ship it the day it releases instead of early like most big games.

I would not trust it. I bought Titanfall on pre-order and it did not show up till the next day. When I called to ask why it was late Amazon said it was not their fault since it had been shipped and UPS was to blame... But I can't call UPS. Even though it was only 2 hours from where I live it took an extra day to arrive. I honestly recommend if you want to play it the same day go to the local game shop and pre order it.

Nope. I have, on several occasions, pre-ordered games from amazon and they never come on launch date. Best way for launch day is gamestop.

I live in Hawai'i and can confirm that pre-ordered games will not arrive on release day. They will get to you at least 2 days later.

Being in Hawaii I do not think you will get it on exact day of release. If you look it only talked about continental US for day of release arrival. You might want to ask Amazon directly because you might be disappointed.

I wouldn't panic, the couple of times I've been upgraded to Release Date delivery I don't get a shipping notice until fairly late in the day the day before.. then it gets overnighted to me, and it's up to UPS to screw the whole thing up. (which they've done. ;) )

Barnes and Noble have a posting stating "Available for Pre-Order from GameStop This item will be available on February 1" http://videogames.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?z=y&cds2Pid=19125&ean=722868643150 Lets hope it is true.

I preordered this last month and since I'm a prime member, I selected 2 day shipping. Just got an email last night from Amazon informing me I'll get it on release day. So, what you may have to do is go back into your order and update your shipping preference. But you CAN get it on release day.

I agree. I too pre-ordered in early Aug and I also received the moved up email only to find out it was later than stated. As long as I get mine in time for Christmas I don't care, but at this point I am a little worried that I'll even get it by then. I hope that Amazon takes the lessons learned from this and other hot pre-orders like the Wii Fit to heart and improve on their service level standards.**Update**I was checking my account for another reason and I see now where I should be getting mine by the 24th of this month. Odd. But good news for me, I hope it actually ships then. I agree. I too pre-ordered in early Aug and I also received the moved up email only to find out it was later than stated.

I placed my order as soon as Amazon had it available as 'Pre-Order'. When the order was placed, my order status was "Not Yet Shipped". As of Thursday, the status has changed to "Shipping Soon" Don't know if that helps, just FYI :) Edit: my order just changed to "shipped" and will arrive Monday!

Hi. I preorder it on 6/8/2009 and my account says I should receive it on July 13, 2009 - July 17, 2009 ...Arghhhhh !! Lost Time...

It seems the release date is June 6th, but I'm not positive. I've pre-ordered. I'll post back once I get the ship info.

Did they say anything about the estimated shipping date? I want to pre-order one, but am afraid it might arrive after I leave the country.

My experience in the past is Amazon aims for you to get the device the day its available to the public. My preorders in the past have arrived on the listed "available on" date. I'd try contacting Amazon directly though- it seems to mildly vary from product-to-product as to when preorders are actually received by the buyer.

I just ordered today and my order page says it will ship today. Will I get an email notice if it is pushed back? And has yours shipped yet, or still set for Aug 28?

I ended up cancelling my pre-order on Amazon and ordering on Newegg (same price; free shipping) earlier today. Status of my order: shipped. Sorry, Amazon. You're still showing this item on pre-order, so I went where my money will actually buy a computer, not just the promise of one some day in the unspecified future. In the end, it might be that my order from Amazon would have arrived on the same day. However, I prefer the certainty of knowing my computer is already on the way from Newegg versus the uncertainty of "pre-order."

I preordered mine with overnight shipping on May 22 and my account says I should receive it on the 29th!

it is now 4pm eastern time and mine stills says not shipped yet so knowing amazon it will say this until the April 12 (my expected arrival date)and then get changed even though it is already obvious it is not getting shipped because they have already updated this site from saying backordered to 1-3 months heaven forbid amazon actually only preorder the amount they are getting and not make false claims, I spoke to them and they stand by the computers saying it is getting mailed out today yet when I asked if they can double check they put me on hold 20 min then hung up

But when? When is this going to start shipping? Is there an official release date?

Haven't got any shipping confirmation yet, so don't know. Might have a better chance running to GameStop to grab one on release day.Update (05/05/2014):I got an email that delivery will be on 8th. I called up customer support and he assured me that he will make changes in the order so that it will be delivered on the 6th. The delivery now has dropped down to 7th and still says it's "Preparing for shipping". Don't think I'll be getting it today. I used one day shipping.
