Today on September 12th, 2007, Ninja Theory's spectacular PS3 title Heavenly Sword was supposed to hit retails stores everywhere. However due to shipping errors (including all my local Gamestops) shipments have not been received.


The problem is a delay with the distributors and what was supposed to be a release today, won't actually happen until tomorrow.

According to GameRevolver.com, a Game Crazy representative spoke on the subject stating, "We received an email from corporate just a few moments ago that stated the game will not hit our stores until tomorrow morning after delivery. It would be safe to say that we won't have the title until mid-day tomorrow..."

For all of those who have Heavenly Sword pre-ordered or are looking to walk in a pick it up, try hitting up your local retail stores tomorrow afternoon and Heavenly Sword should be there waiting for you.

    lol...I knew it was too good to be true when Gamestop called yesterday and said my copy would be available for pickup today...they never, ever have dates correct--I smartly called in today to find out before driving into town and was told to wait until tomorrow.

    That's funny because Best Buy has had their release date for Heavenly sword as 9/13/07...I wonder why that was like that if it was supposed to hit gamestops on 9/12/07

    9/12 was the ship date 9/13 is the street date. Pretty much if any store sold it to you today , they weren't supposed to and could have gotten fined.

    They should never give us a ship date. They should only give us a street date.

    That explains why Walmart, Kmart and Shopko didn't have any copies... groan...

    What strange situation indeed.  Check this out.  Sony Playstation says 9-12, Gamespot.com says 9-12, PSU says 9-12, Best Buy.com says 9-13, and my friend who was at our local Super Wal-Mart today said he was looking flyer that stated Heavenly Sword was coming out on 9-16???  What???  I will believe its out when I see it.   ((sniff sniff))  PS3, it's in the box!

    well, I tell ya what gamestop did, their little automated calling to remind you lady, called me on 9.11.07 told me i could pick her up on the12th. Glad i called 2wice because i was ready to stroll up there today and grab my baby mama and take her to the crib and a very cool guy at GS told me that they didn't get her with the shipment.... but i remember when i went on tuesday to pay the remaining balance, one of the other GS clerks was babling on about it coming out "thursday". Then I get a call today from the autmoated calling to remind you lady saying that i could pick her up on thursday @ noon. Total confusion. But she's here and I'll have her yaaay

    Maybe if you ordered it online you would receive it in the mail on the 12th or 13th?
