Thx for the info on the key code location. If it took you 10 minutes to find it then it would have taken me a week.
if anyone is interested, and you live too far to go and pick the game up, you can order from gamestop here:

and use the coupon code: BF2OVN to get free overnight shipping.
woohoo! got my copy at lunch!
*********UPDATE**********
Went to Walmart after lunch just to have a look around. I caught a stock boy walking by and guess what he had in his buggy, yep you guessed it BF2. After tears of joy run down my face, I finally stopped hugging the stock boy and let him go. I then ran to the check out line and bought that puppy up.
Went to Best Buy around 10:30... Asked the sales chick and she called the back.. After sudenly lowering her voice and turning her back to me, she announced that it hadn't come in yet. HAX!!!! Lazy stockboys I tell ya! Went to gamespot in the mall to learn UPS hadn't come?!?! What happened to getting it the day before? sheesh.. Scooted to another Gamespot where the cashier shrugged that they had it, but the DVD versions were all reserved. I promptly replied "Give mne the dang game, I don't care the format." Fool sales person tells me then that the CD version is such an inferior media (HUH?) and mumbles something else about PC games sucking compared to X-Box 360 (which he raved would use terraflopping and hyperthreading). I calmly reminded him that 360 and PS3 are not out yet, the developers still have to write software specifically for the 64 bit processor and to "RING UP THE DANG GAME!!!!"
Anyhoo, have the game freshly installed, coupled with shiny new joystick. Look out ground troops, Andy and I are flying for real now!!!
omg i hate retarted game clerks, the guy at ebgames was really trying to get me to buy the strategy guide, i said 'no, ive been playing the demo for a week now'
lol @ BS!!
Ok here is my story. I looked and called all over the little town I live in and nobody even knew if they were gonna get it in this week. So after all the aggrevation I converse with Onji and he gives me the link to gamestop and the free overnight code. I go and order it and then proceed to check my email for the next six hours to see if it is going to ship the same day so I will recieve the game today. Well, about 7:30 last night I finally get a tracking number and it is on it's way (Drifter does a jig in front of his comp)! Well the shipment is going to my house and nobody will be there to sign for it, but that is ok because I know the Fed Ex guy and he knows to deliver my stuff up here where I work. Well about 12:30 I start getting nervous cause the Fed Ex guy is usually here by 11:00 or so. So I go check the status on the Fed Ex web site and sure enough he has already come and gone. Well I'll be damned if they don't send it with a different driver today. So he takes it to my house and of course there isn't any one there so he schedules it for delivery for tomorrow. At this point I am beginning to think that I am not meant to own this game, but I decide to take a chance so I leave work and take a ride down the main street in the little town I live in. I get to the other end of town and what do I see!? A Fed Ex truck!!! WOOHOO!!! I stomp on the gas and damn near run a red light but I caught him at his next stop and I got my game! I will be playing BF2 tonight! w00t!
w00t! w00t!
My lovely wife picked mine up for me this morning at EB Games.
God I love my WIFE!!!
My 2 cents. Went by EB games after work after calling and making sure I had a DVD copy to get. He informs me of a money for old games deal so I could save money. So after stopping by the house and loading up about 8 games such as Tribes 2 I saved 30 dollars and ended up only paying 24 dollars for the game, woohoo, see you guys online after the babies go to sleep, woohoo.
Mindwerks, I did the same when I bought the game...got home looked at the back of the case for the code.....NO CODE. Flipped the case inside out, took out the cover, looked through the book, started cursing and yelling, grabbed the case and papers to bring it back and that's when I notice the very light printed numbers on the instruction booklet. Man, would I have felt stupid when I got back to bestbuy.
