Gears 2 Playable During Game U Tour Across 20 College Campuses Starting Next Week
by Chad Lakkis on September 26, 2008

If you want to play Gears of War 2 before the games official release date, and you happen to be near one of the twenty major college campuses outlined after the jump, then Best Buy and friends have just the thing for you.
Starting next week, the “Game U College Tour” will be making its way around the country giving gamers the chance to go head to head in a Gears of War 2 Wingman Challenge.
The tour is free of charge to the general public, but as I typed up the tour schedule, it became clear that the furthest east this tour will be hitting is Michigan. So if you live any further east than that, you are out of luck. Apparently PSU isn’t a “major college campus”.

Best Buy Will Not Break Release Date On Super Mario Galaxy

The only time they have broken the release date is when a game does not have a hard release date already set. Super Mario is not one of those games.
When asked about whether or not they believed individual stores would do it on a case by case basis, both said that they could not see that happening, as the stores would receive immense fines and the managers would likely lose their jobs.
