    Generally, most shops in the UK and abroad, I've heard, have NWN already in stock, but they aren't allowed to start selling until Friday (although some retailers are already selling).

    And the game should run fine with that system.

    I heard that here in Holland (and I guess that it would be the same in whole Northern Europe) it will be selled on 28 June, which would be Friday.

    Will you actually be sleeping in front of the shop? You must be really desperate to get this game.

    Z-Layrex, just phone directory inquiries and ask for the number. Not too difficult. Or look in the Yellow Pages.

    Indeed, the game will be released officially tomorrow. Gameshops already haev it but have to wait for the distribution wasn't totally done. Tomorrow all gameshops will have it and start selling it.

    I already have it for 2 shops started selling it before tomorrow, however they risk a penalty from Infragames.

    Silverbalde, this evening the shops are open, check the local Dynabyte or Dixon-store.

    [​IMG] Release postponed until July 3rd because Infogrames have problems with distribution. This is the situation in Sweden. Some shops might break the agreement, risking sanctions if they do, because the game has been in their stores for some time now.

    I will stay as far away as I possibly can from products distributed by Infogrames in the future. :flaming:

    Well Amazon.co.uk, Gameplay.com and eb.uk.com all show the game as having been released and all are shipping within 24 hours.

    Havnt had a chance to phone some shops to double check yet though.

    I have had NWN since the week end, about 4 days, and I live in south England.
