[quote name='JnJosh']18-20th, depends the store, and canada usually is a little slower on games.
as for broken street dates, walmart is a likely candidate but the probability is questionable.[/quote]
Not anymore with there updated systems which won't allow them to sell before street date.

Not nescessarily true, if Wal-Mart gets it early you have a good shot there of beating street date. They don't give a
. The managers will over-ride the register alerts, they are very "bird in hand" when it comes to sales.
However, some companies are listing the ship date as the street date like they did with Condemned 2, several of us went tearing down to CC for the buy C2 get C1 free deal and it wasn't there until next day.

I preordered Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 the other day and the guy at EBGAMES said the 20th. The first RSV was probably my fav game in 2007.
[quote name='Poor2More']RB6V2 has NO STREET Date, no Tom Clancy games have had street dates for the past 3 of them, When they recieve them, they can sell them, nothing on the box[/quote]
He's right.
Most people don't know the difference between a street date and a release date. 99% of games have a RELEASE DATE. RB6V's release date here in the states is the 18th. It's released from the publisher and shipped to stores. It takes a day to ship to the store, so most places will get them the 19th.
STREET DATE titles are limited to those titles that are in VERY high demand (Halo 3, Super Smash Brothers), are coinciding with the release of a movie (Surf's Up, Open Season), or sports titles (Madden, NBA, MLB, etc). Street dated titles are shipped well ahead of their release date so quantity can meet demand. This is why some stores "break street date" on titles.
