Retailers ignore Modern Warfare 2 street date, gamers won’t be punished for early purchase

Street date, schmeet date.

It should probably not come as a surprise that some retailers decided to break the November 10, 2009, street date on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The events that transpired afterward are definitely worth noting, though.

GameStop contacted COD publisher Activision regarding retailers breaking the street date. These conversations led to the retailer deciding to break street date in areas where other retailers had already done so.
