Otaku-Gamers.com notes tgat if you happened to be in London or Edinburgh on Tuesday then you may have noticed that GAME were already selling Project Gotham Racing 2 to the public, which was almost 72 hours before its official release.

This isn't the first time GAME has broken a release date, they did the exact same thing with Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness in order to boost sales.

very stiff, since when i worked at best buy, selling something before release resulted in a 10 - 15k dollar fine per copy sold and usually ment whoever put the media out on the floor ahead of time lost their job. Thats gonna hurt.

Ok n00b! :)

What he meant was that gaming companies wont be sending their games to GAME (the store) early anymore, so that they won't give them out early.

Understand now? :cheers:
