Anybody but me ever buy from Comp USA or Best Buy? Never been to a Gamestop (none very close) and we don't have EB anymore.

We just got a Best Buy. They've never heard of HOI. I used to have a CompUSA, but they were idiots. There's not one here, though.
At least around here we have every store to choose from. 
Not too far away either... the problem is that it's going to be freckin' cold the entire week and I don't have a car here.

don't even try those stores, Hoi! is not age of empires so they won't be pushing to have it on the shelves in the first few days it's out even if they have already ordered copies.
Best bet is Gamestop or EB if you want the game as soon as it's released

HA! I'll up you one. In San Francisco we pay 8.5% sales tax!
7.45% here.
But anyways, before BiB tosses the thread into the bowels of OT...
Aim for EB or Gamespot. I'm sure someone here on the boards will find out where it's out first, and everyone will flock to that store to get their copy.

I'm still going to try for Circuit City and Best Buy. If neither one of them has it, I'll just order it online. I'll have to wait an extra day to get it, though.
Luckily, I don't teach classes on Tuesday! I'll set my alarm, go work out, drive to the store (while eating breakfast and being careful not to get anything on my leather seats), buy the game, come back home, and sit here until my 9:00 class on Wednesday. Of course, if it's not there, I'll come home and gripe out it on the boards. Then I'll drive to San Antonio or Austin to get it.
All I know is that I'm going to get the game SOMEWHERE the day it comes out. I'll call every store within 15 miles and reserve a copy if I have to.
Yeah I think some people have a point. This game is no Sims or Rollercoaster Tycoon. It will appeal to a fairly small group of people. Intelligent people who like to be challenged never the less. A fairly small group.

We'll leave the stupid 'if it move kill it!' people (everyone else) to their guns, drugs and hoes in GTA.
Dunno if you are in the toronto area, but i've never had the slightest problem buying any of paradox's titles here. Eu2 arrived in my local EB the day after stratagy first shipped it, and EU1 was in stores pretty early too. Heck, EU2 is still really easy to find. My cousins in Montréal say the same for there.
I don't mean to sound offensive but some of you sound cheep, you are worried about a difference in sales tax and a whopping $5
Up here in Canada
Up here in Canada we pay 7.5% sales tax AND 7% "Goods and Service Tax" 14.5%!
