some dude who works at some Walmart in Arkansas said they started selling GH2, we keep Walmarts out of NYC, so I'm out of luck :(

Why are there no Walmarts in NYC, but there are KMart and TJ Maxx?

Checked the local store (Richmond, KY). No Guitar Hero 2 (no Gutar Hero, either) and no shelf space setup to hold them.

Yeah I just checked there earlier. :lol

You gotta keep people updated on these things, man. I hate making trips to Wal-Mart when I don't have to.

Sad thing is, I didn't even plan to buy this. I want to wait for the 360 version, but if I could get it early? My willpower would be broken.

new demo that hit Best Buy/EB/etc

I played what could have been this at a Wal-mart today in Phoenix, but I'm thinking that it was the full game. It had the first 10 songs available for quick play, everything from Opening Licks and Amp Warmers. I watched a kid play through Shout at the Devil, then did a quick run-through of Woman by Wolfmother myself. From what I've read, the 10-song demo is just an expanded OPM demo, and didn't have all these songs.

Unfortunately, none of the Wal-marts that I went to had GH2 available, but most had the $5 preorder placecard up.

Any of these "confirmed" stores actually let you buy it? I thought their registers don't even allow it to go through.

Sorry, I completely forgot there were other (or another!) Gaffer in Richmond. :lol

nada here. Just as well though with the TRU deal going on still.

Thanks for saying that.. it'll save me the trouble of going to any of them around here. By the way, have you checked out the TRUs around us? I was thinking of seeing if there's anything good to buy.

79.99!?!?

50 for just the game!?!?


Hello 2007.

(and **** you Activision)

Didn't you ever think that maybe the licensing for the songs were more expensive this time around?

(I know it's prolly Activision; just playing devil's advocate)

Jantzen Beach, but they still don't have Contact in and as it's the only game I'm actually looking to purchase this week, I've gottn nothing from them yet. I'm holding out hope they get it tomorrow, though.

Some people on gamefaqs are saying their Redoctane orders are shipping or released? Here's hoping other stores will break the date

Never knew that one. doubt anyone did :p

Walmart bought them years ago :D Asda still uses its brand and name since it's one of the biggest brands in the UK. A lot of Asda stores now have "Part Of The Walmart Family" signs on the wall/at the entrance though

My order says "Warehouse", and when I ordered from redoctane the website said something along the lines of "be one of the first to play" and that it would be delivered on or before Nov 7th.

It would be great if I got it before the weekend.
