- hooges, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0At BestBuy.com you can now buy controllers, as well.
- briansalo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's a good idea, just so everyone can most likely get the games they want, rather than having a rush of people fighing over copies of Perfect Dark... Even though they'll probably be out-of-stock pretty damn fast anyways =P
- JasonD76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Great, I can go drop a couple of hundred bucks on some shiny pieces of plastic and then take them home and stare at them for a week....whopee.
- Superfluous, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0is elder scrolls IV going to be an xbox exclusive?
- Morph_Ball, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"is elder scrolls IV going to be an xbox exclusive?"
No, it's going to be on PC as well.
Well, okay. So, the only titles on that list that I'm actually looking forward to are Dead or Alive 4, Quake 4, and Call of Duty 2. Awww shoot! I just found out that I can't afford all this crap.
Wait... I always knew that~ -_- - Anth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What good would buying the games early do you? With the controlers I can understand - you can plug them into your PC (right? I thought I heard that somewhere).
- snyy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"I really hope Xbox 360 is the next Dream Cast."
you mean the best system ever - nstern2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Cool, my buddy won an xbox from Pepsi so we can buy games for it when he gets it.
- stilesja, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Uhh.. no one seems to get this. If they have the games for sale before the system goes on sale, people buy them before they can read if they suck or not. Its a way to juice more money out of gamers. Why else would they offer games for sale when there is no way for anyone to play them. They capitalize on the hype. People go buy these games because they know they are buying an XBox. By the time the Xbox is out all the gotta have it freaks had a chance to buy all they games they thought would be great. But they will only know for sure when the console is released.
This whole business says to me that game developers are worried that these titles will not live up to expectations. - LOKIOLR, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Actually these are the street dates across the board. Everybody will get them on the same day. Here's the line up:

Elder Scrolls IV - Falcon4093, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0No punctuation because he just cut and paste from the joystiq article.
You can skip the joystiq article and go directly to the pictures/story on GamingNexus here
http://www.gamingnexus.com/Default.aspx?Section=FullNews&I=943 - Drood, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow! Ever hear of punctuation? Was wondering what "Call of Duty Condemned" was.
- Friedle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wal-Mart is selling them on the 15th too. Sounds like that the official on-sale date for the games.
- tastypastry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I really hope Xbox 360 is the next Dream Cast.
- Zeush8su, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0some games will be available at EB as early as nov.1,As soon as the UPS guy drops them off they can go out on the shelf and pre-order copies will be handed out.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0what is with this BestBuy spam today??
- Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I was working at Best Buy when the DS came out and we got some games early, the website was selling them, but our superviser still said we were allowed to sell them until the system launched.
- paulbram, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0M$ sucks at failing!
- tastypastry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0But dont get me wrong, the Dream Cast kicked ass, i just want to see Microsoft fail.
- kazanma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0With XBox 360 console shortages being predicted, I wonder how many people will buy games ahead of time and later on can't find a console to play the games. It will certainly increase the demand for the console.
- G-RaZoR, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0They always do this. They don't get the dates right. They will release the titles at the console launch. Many stores did this with the PSP, but everything was taken care of. Don't get your hopes up.
- Tyler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Best Buy stores ae not allowed to sell them untill they sell the systems, they do not want unhappy customers buying the games then not getting a system incase of any shortages. There are no hard numbers on how many systems anyone is getting yet.
- chrpnkchu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Best Buy is allowed to sell the titles as soon as they get them. The only title with a street date is King Kong. None of the other games have a street date. Most stores will sell the games as soon as they come in.
- .mark, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Who cares? I'm waiting for a PS3.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0punctiation allways helps
- logost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"M$ sucks at failing!"

- adml_shake, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Who cares? It's freaken best buy.
- Scopitone, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Yeah
