The only shipping method Amazon uses via USPS is Media Mail, which obviously they couldn't use for Release Date Delivery.

Almost all of mine have come via UPS, though once or twice, it's been FedEx.

I have had games and movies shipped to me via Priority Mail. . .not for release date delivery, however.

Anyone think there's a chance Amazon adds Pokemon SS/HG to their list? Been looking for cheap options for pre-ordering it.

There's a chance but I think it would already be up there. Alan Wake doesn't have an official release date yet and just got one of these while Pokemon comes out in less than 2 months.

Anyone think Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition is going to get a $10 promotion? I don't know whether they typically give these rereleases (GOTY Edition, w/e) a $10 promotion...

So I just pre-ordered Tatsunoko vs. Capcom and got an email with a random promo code for $5 in Video on Demand credit as opposed to the $10 Video Game Credit... Does that usually get sent and/or applied before the order ships or will that show up (up to 48 hours? right?) after my order is sent out? I am just checking as this is the first time I have done any pre-ordering on Amazon, let alone one with any sort of bonus such as this $10 video game credit thing.

You should get it AFTER you receive the game, or what is to stop people from getting the credit and then canceling and rebuying with the credit?

Wow, why did they add Alan Wake lol? Works for me since I have the PC version on order.

Did anyone else get spammed with notifications this weekend from Amazon about the $10 promo? Never seen them follow up about the addition of these promos before.

I think it's time we had a chat about that. About the PC version...

Ha, I don't know what to believe anymore. Amazon thinks it's still coming out, so that's good enough for me.

Thank you. I definitely understand that. I guess they just decided to throw a promo code at me so I try out Amazon VoD and maybe continue to pay for more of it in the future. I just got a bit nervous as it was my first time w/ all of this game credit stuff and wasn't 100% sure on protocol even after reading a few pages of this topic.

My ME2 still shows that it hasn't shipped yet I have "release date delivery' wtf?

often they ship it out very late and next day air 'em...

yeah i've had times when the order didn't get shipped out until after 10pm the day before, yet still arrived before noon.

My ME2 CE shipped this morning going next day air saver.

My copy of MAG, which is also releasing tomorrow, just shipped, also with next day air saver.

As long as it's on the truck by this evening, it doesn't matter when it ships out today.

Yep my copy of MAG also shipped out pretty late. No worries, UPS is pretty bomb about getting stuff to people on time.

Just out of curiosity, did any Mass Effect 2 collector's editions buyers gets release date delivery?

Mine has got an estimated delivery date of the 27th... (I'm a prime member too.) And I'm pretty sure they advertised release date delivery all over their website.

I got the CE and release date delivery. Can't wait!

Anyone else...? I've traded a few emails with amazon and haven't had much satisfaction on the issue being resolved... though apparent;y the first reply I got did give me the 10 dollar credit as they said my CE edition qualified for it.

Has anyone received their $10 credit for Tatsunoko vs. Capcom yet?
