Gamestop would probably not allow that, but then again what do I know.

My GS told me they should have the codes in on the 17th...

They better not end up giving everyone full quarters. I paid over $70 for my pre order online just to get the full demo early. I didn't know you can walk in store. I figured my only shot was online.

I'm so glad I don't do squat on-line. No cheesers, no demo mess, no pimply faced 14 year olds talking smack. Nothing but a blissful stress free wait til the release date when I can just walk in and buy it no questions asked.

Now if I don't get it on the 14th... You all die!!!

Yea they should.

I just pre ordered online to get the demo, if i don't get the demo codes by the end of july I will cancel and just order through amazon.

The pre oder came to 71$ with two day shipping and they charged TAX online. With amazon I have free two day shipping because I'm an amazon prime member and their price is 56$ and they do not charge tax. So I'm paying about 15$ for this demo.

so no demo codes and my order will be canceled.

The official word came out from EA saying that the demo for GS pre-orders will be live the 23rd and the other demo is live 30th. Whether the codes are being released soon, not sure yet. Time to make the rounds of calling GameStop now to see if they got codes in.

Gamestop in Beaumont Texas said they will have the codes sometime tomorrow. And that the demo will be out next week. Now, she did give this juicy tidbit, she said, and I quote "They are basing the amount of codes we get off of the number of preorders we have." Sounds weird, but everyone else is sharing with the class, so I thought I should too.

# 250 bases1616 @ 07/16/09 01:20 PM

I would just keep calling your local GameStop everyday until they come in. I am sure the codes will be gone quick.

So this is interesting...I called one of my local GS and this is what they said. He seemed VERY knowledgeable about Madden 2010 since he spewed out info I already knew (which is quite an achievement for any GS employee to do) and he said he was in a conference call this morning (which I know in fact they do since I used to work there in HS) and they mentioned that the codes would be shipped in store tomorrow. If true, then the email process would begin tomorrow as well.

Take that for what it's worth since I don't know how reliable they are but all the facts sound credible since I've been there for the brief few months back in HS.

I just called GS corporate since I ordered my Madden online with a in-store pick up. The gentleman that I spoke with told me that I should see the code via email by the 17th. He said or course there is a chance of a delay, but that I should be getting the code sent to me by tomorrow

)) I hope he is right!!

# 253 NoTiCe_O @ 07/16/09 02:06 PM

I work in the mall, and theres a Gamestop Like 4 stores down from where i work, I'm going to pre order today on my break

# 254 ScoobySnax @ 07/16/09 02:13 PM

This why I can't stand GameStop sometimes. They never have a standard protocol with anything they do. Every store says something completely different. I just called about the demo codes and he said they won't be available for pick up until the 23rd. Huh?? Makes no sense to me, considering that they were ADVERTISING that they would be available starting on the 15th.

My GS has them now.

I guess everyone will vary. I'm assuming I should get mine sent via email by end of this weekend.

gamestop saw my last dime with Ncaa 10 this week. They made me go around in circles calling them about a code I was supposed to get that very day of my game.

sorry gamestop....You lose.. good Day Sir. Gene Wilder for the win.

# 258 huskerwr38 @ 07/16/09 03:51 PM

yeah i knew about all that but i mean the codes. obviously it's been a crap shoot. i tried calling mine yesterday and got nowhere. i'll just call tomorrow morning since i haven't gotten an email. hopefully they just have them and i can pick it up or they can tell me definitively when it will be emailed. i just want 100% assurance i'll have it.

# 260 Droopy03 @ 07/16/09 04:12 PM

I just got mine like 10 minutes ago
