I am going to check today the EB store near me and see if they got it. If they have it I will of course go down there and get it right away. I have a 2 hour break between each of my class so I will have the time to do it.

In Redondo Beach,CA EB is out, and might get some on Friday, while CompUSA is getting PTW on Friday too.

Geez, it seems that here in Canada we get PTW faster than a lot of our Yankee friends.....
Maybe it's just a Toronto thing.....

Wal-Mart is selling PTW for $29.19 in my area. I would think that should be the national price for Wally World. Should be on the shelf Friday.

Oh, I guess I should post this: My partner picked up two copies of PTW at EB at Sarramonte Mall in Daly City (south of San Francisco). He picked them up last night on his way home from work.

Well, I guess PTW is widely available (in the US anyway). This morning I picked up a copy at Babbages at Sarasota Square Mall in (you guessed it) Sarasota, FL.
There were many copies available and the guy working the store said it wasn't in heavy demand.
Firaxis take note: My guess is that most people check out internet reviews before buying games. I bought a copy despite what I've read here. In the future, I suggest Firaxis/Infogrames release a "Beta Version" (at the same price) with promises of patches to come. - I would have gladly paid the same price for a clearly labeled "Beta" version and not have lost respect for Mr. Meier for allowing himself to be in a position that diminishes his Deity like reputation in the gaming world.
That said: I have had SOOOO many hours of fun playing Civ I,II,III, that I forgive Sid. But, still, this release was irresponsible...
That, That, Said: If you love Civ (like a junkie loves crack) face up to the fact that you'll have to buy it sooner or later. At least you'll benefit from the single player improvements while we wait for Firaxis to get it's sh_t together...

So, here in Atlanta, I picked up my copy at Media Play yesterday, and my Dad just had to get one. He goes to Best Buy, they've never heard of it. He then proceeds to a different Media Play, they've never heard of it either. He was jealous for about an hour until he went to my Media Play to get his copy. Go figure.

Best Buys, I understand. Any place that is pc games oriented should have at least heard of it.

Being an employee at Best Buy, I can definitely tell you that Best Buy is not "pc games oriented". Best Buy would rather sell stuff with higher profit margin, such as computer accessories, CD storage equipment, and things like that

No, we don't. I ordered from Gamestop.com on Thursday, and found it in the mail today (Monday). That was quick!
They charge $ 15.99 per order, though (I ordered two copies, so I share those costs).
(I live in the Netherlands)

PTW is US$19.99 at CompUSA this week. And that's why my wife made me wait a week and a half before I could buy it.
