    The Big Early Release Mix Up

    Talk about the early release here. As for now it seems that both a commercial announcing the release of the game and the premature selling of BioShock at Toys R Us and a few other stores, has caused a bit of craziness.
    But as stated the original release dates still stand unless 2K say something about it.

    For now I, along with the other mods will do our best to make sure no spoilers are posted in the main forums or in thread titles.
    We ask you to be patient. I know it's a pain in the butt not knowing certain information, but even if there is no early release date you guys have patiently waited this long, you can wait 7 days (10 days for our friends over seas) and I commend you for it.

    Just Kidding

    I think you just want the limelight. YOU have to make all the official threads. First the demo thing, now this...

    I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY WITH YOURSELF!

    Ever since the release happened, I'm sure alot of Toys 'r Us stores had a lot of phone calls.

    Hmm if its not being sold massively tomorrow oh well, but my main concern is Game/Story stabability now that people have the game, like someone said earlier its like Harry potter, people will start posting spoilers and things that will ruin our experience, in return it will lower users on these forums and other forums, the only options seem like:

    A: Going ahead with the break and give the green light

    B: Suppressing the current sales and pulling the launch closer then the 21st

    or C: Stoping current sales and Continue on route for the 21st

    personally i could care less what they decide as long as i get the game eventually, and no one spoils it for me or anyone else, so meanwhile if 2K wants to lower the fire on this topic.... Release the Pc demo soon lol, then everyone will kinda forget about this... ooo look at the pretty water.....

    I won't lie, I will check my local one. Even tho I want the LE version. Just too see what they say and if they offer it.

    Finally one thread, this should clean things up. My 2 cents...release it early 2K!!! Though you have given us a demo this week, so I feel spoiled now asking for an early release.

    Even if it's released early it wouldn't matter for me. I don't get my pay check till friday. So congratulations to those playing the game. If you spoil anything I'll rip your eyes out of the back of your head.

    Makes sense to release it while its out there. 2k might be in for a spot of damage limitation

    A. Avoids people downloading it illegaly for those that cannot wait

    B. Avoids people ruining the game for others that don't have it yet

    etc,etc It all adds up really. Guess we will find out plenty more tommorow.

    this also makes PC gamers COMPLETELY forgive for the demo mix up, if this is true, then OMG I LOVE YOU 2K Boston/Australia and yes you too Elizabeth, i bet us PC gamers can finally feel sorry for causing a Rapturian like Uproar when the 360 demo was released

    I wish he would say what channel he saw it on. I'm in the Toronto area, and right now I'm waiting to see if I can catch the commercial. I want to see it with my own eyes, before I believe it.

    To tell you the truth, I hope it releases on the 21st. I was really looking forward to waiting 1 more week while the reviews pop up and getting it 1 day after the release at my sisters after a 6 hour car ride of pure "omfg."

    Ehh, whatever. I'll still wait till I get it then, next Wednesday. IF this rumor is true.

    All of this craziness reminds me of a Simpsons quote
    Kent Brockman:Professor, without knowing precisely what the danger is, would you say it’s time for our viewers to crack each other’s heads open, and feed on the goo inside?
    Professor: Yes I would Kent.
