Game Informer, where are you!

Is anyone else having this problem? I still can't get my hands on the February Issue. It's still not in stores where I am. It's a little frustrating. :(

Some stores have them and some don't. It's because of the recent winter storms hitting the southern and eastern parts of the US hard. So, naturally, delays are to be expected.

My nearest Gamestop store (I'm in Texas) said to check back tomorrow when I called them on Friday.

I live in southern Georgia and none of the GameStops near me have them. All said the same thing "it hasn't even been shipped to us yet." GRRRRR....

The person I talked to at the local Gamestop made it sound like they had the new Game Informer, but they wouldn't be putting it out until the 1st :shrug:

Mine simply hasn't come in the mail. Not sure why. I'll talk to my friends at Gamestop though.

I received my November issue a few days ago. I should probably head to Gamestop soon.

I'm visiting my mom in Illinois and her local Gamestop didn't have it yesterday...the guy told me that subscribers just got their copies in the mail on the 14th (obviously he was misinformed), and that his store will probably be getting it next week.

I'm heading back to New York later this week so I'm hoping my Gamestop will have it when I get there. I'm starting to get so desperate, I may stop at Gamestops in each of the four states i'm driving through on my way home :hubbahubba:

My GameStop got it today and I'm just NW of Atlanta. They wanted me to spend 15$ on an Edge Discount Card (they don't buy and sell used PC games) and a 1 year subscription to GI (a console publication) both of which are completely worthless to me as a PC. I really want that mag but not that bad. I told them to shove it with walnuts and I'll wait for it to hit newsstands.

The staff at Gamestop/EB are renowned for disorganization and not knowing what they're talking about. It wouldn't surprise me if they think they can't sell the magazine until february because it's the february issue. If you talk to a manager I'm sure you'll be able to buy the current issue.

Unless of course there's some sort of disaster in your area, in that case the shipping might have been delayed.

The exclusivity won't last. They will want as much money as possible and will sell it on Newsstands eventually.

It has hit the shelves in Fairbanks, AK and can be found at Fred Myer. I'm not sure about Game Stop. And we almost never get anything before the rest of the world. Odd that one.
