episode Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Guys, there is no rumor. I've talked to every manager of every major game store in the NE. EB, GS, and BB acknowledge that D3 has no street date, but for some reason BB won't sell it. My GS will sell it ASAP on Monday, and EB won't get them in stock until Tuesday morning. This, of course, is for my area. And your area is?

Lanky Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 i can see them holding it back till all stores get it on a "your store in bla bla has it and is selling it, why dont you bla bla bla " causing more headache.also if i were a compeditor, id go to their store buy them out of stock, then sell them in my store, they would be purchased from best buy, but Early Bird Cash only in mine, lol, and id advertise it. lol lol, your idea is sensless unless you sell them for a profit, but then its unlikely many people will buy them.

Hell-In-A-Handbasket Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Uhm, that doesn't make sense as a competitor ... Best Buy would still be selling everything, they can care less what you do with it afterward. but if there was a fine for selling it early, they would get busted, i wouldnt, there is where i was going with that, sorry for not clearin git up, it was kind of vauge Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/197042-doom-iii-is-out-there-w00t/page/34/#findComment-584275211 Share on other sites More sharing options...
episode Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 There is no fine for selling any product early. Never has been, never will be. The only sanctions a company might see are from the companies that are distributing the game/movie/music. What they do in that case is make sure the store in question doesn't get stuff in early for a while.

episode Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I'm interested, what did it say about "fines"? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/197042-doom-iii-is-out-there-w00t/page/34/#findComment-584275254 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorcho Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 The game is way to dark. The graphics and models look very detailed but I think due to their desire to bring fear and atmosphere to the game they over did it. I mean come on, who wants to run the whole game with a flashlight. this is by far the greatest mini-review of any game, ever. a close second is my friend's brother who complained how burnout 2 didn't allow for people to get out of the car. cheer cheer!

Hell-In-A-Handbasket Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I'm interested, what did it say about "fines"? about the store itself would get fined anywhere form 500-1000 per unit and put the company in jepardy of beign able to sale the lables movies. it was a bunch of crap,but cuse the DM was a dick and would prolly fire us ont eh spot we didnt.

episode Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 yeah I've never heard of it actually happening. usually its just a scare tactic by a companies corporate office. ive worked more retail than i care to mention and ive bought tons of stuff personally weeks before street date and nothing has ever come of it. and this is usually using employee discount weeks before the game came out. if i was still with best buy id have bought probably 5 copies of doom 3 already Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/197042-doom-iii-is-out-there-w00t/page/34/#findComment-584275274 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nvidia247 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I went to my local best buy in the Bay Area and they didnt even have any pre-order boxes, they said they won't get it until the 3rd or the 4th. I didnt push the sales guy on it, but I would bet that they will recieve the shipment monday if they didnt get it already.
