Yeah, a while ago. I think it should be winging its way to me tomorrow, after which I can hopefully soon join in on the discussions.  I have been actively avoiding anything/everything until I have actually played the damn game!

Pre-ordered the PS3 special edition a few months ago from Amazon, waiting for them to actually ship it. The site says that the delivery date will be the 26th...but that's tomorrow and it still says "shipping soon"

@Chop: @DonutFever: 
Aw, for the love of... I'm reading some users on other forums saying that their EB Games/GameStop might not have the game tomorrow. I've not had a problem like this for a game before at the EB I buy games from, but maybe this is different? Christ, if they don't have it I... 
 
Ugh, I'd probably just go to Best Buy, buy it from there and cancel my EB pre-order. But then I'd lose out on the Love is Over edition which I really wanted as well as the art book and the OST. GODDAMMIT FATE DON'T SCREW WITH ME.

Just got the call from Gamestop about an hour ago that "Catherine will arrive tomorrow morning" in the most annoying voice. God damn who decided to have her do the automated messages.

HEY THIS IS ASHLEY! CALLING TO LET YOU KNOW THAT... CATHERINE!!! WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PICKUP TOMORROW! PLEASE BRING ANY TRADE INS FOR THE PURCHASE!!!

Amazon preorder is on its way! Until then EDF EDF EDF!!!

It does; I knew that. I'm just wondering if he'd still get those standard pre-order bonuses even though he pre-ordered the game a single day before its NA release.

I actually tried to preorder from GameStop on Saturday, but apparently they stopped taking preorders on the Love is Over edition two weeks ago.  (o_O)  So I went home and preordered from Amazon.com. (^_^)  Silly GameStop.

Mine shipped from Amazon today, can't wait for tomorrow evening.

I might have imported it if I was not completely out of money. I'll have to wait for a european release.. and then after that maybe I'll wait for a price drop depending on what people say.

Still waiting for the European release. Might get the deluxe edition if they'll even be available then.

Preordered the PS3 version at EB/GameStop since I'm short on money and had some games to trade in. Hoping I'll actually be able to pick up my copy tomorrow :/

Preordered the PS3 version on Amazon, won't get it till next week though.

I pre-ordered the Love Is Over edition. But i will only get it at the end of August because Brazil sux.

I preordered at Gamestop and just got the message earlier today that my copy will be available tomorrow.

I pre-ordered back in March I think? It's not out til the end of next month here though and seeing how it's been received so far, I'm considering dropping it.

I don't import games so I'm just waiting to see what kind of special edition Europe gets. Also, as much as I really want to play this game I've already got enough things on my plate.

how it's been received so far, I'm considering dropping it.

EB just called and said it's been pushed back 'til wednesday for me... Argh.

Positively?

Eh. Not interested in the game. Kinda feel bad though, a unique game sells like shit again. *Sighs*

Preordered the deluxe edition awhile ago, comes in tomorrow. Had two preordered but my 360 broke down so no point in buying both versions.

What makes you say that? I thought the game has been received and anticipated fairly highly. It's an Atlus title, so it's not like they're expecting millions of copies to sell. They don't really require a large number of sales to turn a profit and have already far exceeded sales in Japan.

Do you live in Canada?

Yep.

Me

Getting mine imported ASAP. C'mon FedEx, don't fuck with me now. The last experience I had with courier was pleasant, so I'm hoping this is too.

Yep.

Yep.

Awesome, the chance that my EB doesn't receive it tomorrow rises.

I live in Canada and have not received any call whatsoever. Guess I'll go to the store and see if they have it or not, most likely they will though.

That does sound pretty awesome.

I did gotta wait till wednesday to pick it up due to an issue but its cool.

I did. Going to pick it up before work tomorrow.

I am interested in the game especially the story. But when I played the demo I was less then thrilled with the puzzle aspect guess I am not a block puzzle kind of guy. But part of me still wants the game but as far as getting it right away that's a no. But keeping a open mind cause like I said really interested in the story (plus I really like the team that did this game).

Amazon still says "Shipping Soon". They're killing me!

I'm more excited about finally getting the Catherine Novel. But I do have both deluxe editions coming tomorrow

I preordered the limited edition months ago. :)

Preordered it! Not sure when I'll get to play it, though.

Out for delivery! Woot.

Pre- Ordered the deluxe a long time ago at EB. Never got a call, but the only time I ever did was for the 3DS.

Went out looking for it last night at some of my local non-chain stores who sell stuff early and they never had it. Said that they've been getting shafted on new releases lately thanks to the Canada Post strike.

I'm out of town for work today so I won't get it till around 7 or so tonight when I get back into town

I preordered it at gamestop.  They told be I would be getting preorder bonuses but he did not say specificly what.  and yes i live in NA.  If I remember to, I will post tomorrow to update whether i get the bonuses or not.

FUCK YOU GAMESTOP (CANADA). I go there, which takes me an hour and a half due to bus, and they say they don't have the game and don't know when they'll get it. Now I'm a pretty nice guy a simple sorry or we'll call you as soon as possible would have been the world to me but all the guy said when I walked in was," Nope we don't got it. Maybe later." Seriously the only reason I pre-ordered there was for the art book and CD, thanks for reminding me to never do that again. I'm so fucking mad right now.

In Pittsburgh and I preordered the beginning of the month from Amazon and according to the shipping status it is "Shipping Soon". Sigh.

Just had my Love is Over preorder from Amazon delivered to me at work. Life is good.
