In a move that will delight fans but confuse the hell out of anybody who believes "Official Release" date means... the date on which a game is officially released, UK retailer HMV is to launch Dead Rising 2 a day early... officially.The retailer is due to collaborate with Capcom Europe for the official launch of the title which will be available from most gaming retailers as of September 24th.
However, those who attend the launch event at the Oxford Street HMV store will be able to pick up the game between 5:00-8:00pm in the evening on the day before the game's official release.
So if you really, really can't wait to do all sorts of horrible things to zombies all over again be sure to show your face at the game's launch event. Who knows what surprises Capcom will have in store?
