People who are planning on Pre-ordering madden
 

I discovered a promo code for free overnight shipping. It's "free1day" at [url]www.ebgames.com[/url]. Pretty sweet, it just worked for me.

thanks for the info

thanks, I pre-ordered it last night.

thats sweet. becuase the game doens get into stores until the 12th, so i get it two days early, awesome.!!!!

and it is ordered, thanks!!

yeh, anyone who pre-ordered it at their local game store is going to be getting it on monday the 9th.

a buddy of mine ordered ncaa 05 online from ea games and he didn't get his until 3 or 4 days after it was already released in the stores... ye be warned

from ea games, or eb games. I can see ea games doing that, but not eb games.

u sure about that. Games do usually come on tuesday, but it says it doesnt ship until the 9th? how could the stores get it before that?

This is what I heard. Apparently EA Sports have some sort of arrangement where EA ships their copies to EB a few days earlier. This way, people who pre-ordered madden online will actually get the game on the 9th, with the overnight delivery option. I found this info on [url]www.maddennation.com[/url]. It's a madden forum site.

I know our district ordered the games same day shipping and the managers r gonna head to the distribution center when the shipment comes in and then turn around and start selling them that night. plus the ship dates online r for regular customers not the actual stores cuz sometimes the stores get games 2-3 days before they start shipping to individual customers.

Glad it worked for you guys. Hopefully we will get it on the 9th.

I did the overnight option to my local store, I've heard it gives you the best chance at getting it early. Who knows, guess I'll see.

im sure as s oon as someone gets a copy there will be plenty to be said on the board.
