Oblivion in the mail? Options

[Olav]

Greetings. Newbie here...

I thought the game wasn't scheduled to be released until March 20th, but just now I received an email from USPS Shipping Services that a package is being sent to me today. Could this be correct?

This ship notification is being sent to you by the U.S. Postal Service® at the request of LISA A BUSH.

A package with a Click-N-Ship® label created on usps.com containing the following information is scheduled to be shipped on 03/14/2006.

From:
LISA A BUSH
ROCKSTAR GAMES/TAKE 2 INTERACTIVE 
9271 MERIDIAN WAY
WEST CHESTER OH 45069-6523

If it's true I'm very happy, but with only 2 small issues:
1. It will probably take a week or more to reach Norway.
2. This Saturday I'm going away on a two week holiday...

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Actually I'm hoping it's a mistake since I'm going away for 2 weeks this Saturday, although I have ordered a service now involving the Norwegian postal service taking care of my mail until I return (but how well can you trust them wiith an interesting package lying about?).

Have not received a new mail saying it was a mistake yet though. Maybe they ship it to europe since it takes a while to get here, but cancel shipments to the US?

Anyway I know that games are often available long before release date. I have a friend working in a games store, and he says that they often receive games weeks before release date, but of course they're not allowed to start selling it until the official date.

Either way it's nice to have a confirmation that the game is actually finished and packed. Another year now, and it should be fully patched into working condition...
