Anyone able to help? lol - just checked the website again, store pickup and the correct date are available for the Xbox 360 version of the Raccoon City Special Edition - PS3 says store pickup not available yet, and the date is still wrong. Also it says nothing about the pre-order bonuses on either.

Here is a link to the product btw, I'll link the 360 and PS3 special editions so it might speed along an answer....

SynopsisIt is September 1998 and there has been an outbreak of the deadly T-virus in Raccoon City. Umbrella orders an elite team into the city to cover up the accident, destroy all evidence and eliminate any and all survivors. However, Raccoon City has caught the watchful eye of the United States government, which has authorized a quarantine on the city. An elite team of special forces has been dispatched to investigate the cause of the outbreak. With zombies and Bio-Organic Weapons on the loose, this dark and terrifying city is about to be witness to horrific battles between the three competing forces. Go inside the dark and sinister Raccoon City to cover up the horrific consequences of a deadly T-virus outbreak, and eliminate any and all survivors in Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. As a member of the Umbrella Security Service, you must destroy all evidence of the outbreak while competing against U.S. Special Ops and fighting against zombies and Bio-Organic Weapons (B.O.W.s). Experience the terrifying Resident Evil universe in this third-person team-based shooter that lets you compete in the Campaign mode alone or fight in four-player co-op battles. Rewrite the history of the Raccoon City outbreak as you destroy all evidence of Umbrella's role and uncover the true intentions of UBCS operative, Nicholai Ginovaef. Encounter favorite Resident Evil enemies, memorable landmarks and formidable characters, including Leon S. Kennedy. Take the fight online in competitive multiplayer modes that feature unique three-corner combat between the Umbrella Security Service, U.S. Special Ops and the constant threat of zombies and B.O.W.s. With this Special Edition you'll truly feel like one of the fighting forces with Umbrella Security Service and Spec Ops embroidered patches that accompany a SteelBook case with exclusive art and a stylized foil sleeve. Plus, you'll have access to eight bonus weapons to assist you in battle. The outbreak has occurred and the only vaccine — is death.

Hey SaroenX,
Thanks for calling this out. I can see where your confusion is coming from and I am checking on this right away. I should have an update for you shortly so hang tight!

Hey, thank you so much kyle! I really appreciate it!!! I'm almost positive it's a typo, being as every other site has the correct release date on every version, and I called gamestop to confirm that all versions were being released on the same day (I couldn't see you guys getting it a week later!), but either way I'm just happy to have the game - I didn't realize there was a special edition until yesterday when I pre-ordered it, otherwise I would have done it a while ago! Amazon sold out, gamestop sold out - and I assume you guys are probably going to soon as well!! Maybe the incorrect date is keeping people from ordering ;-P!

Hey no problem!
So I did hear back on this and we must have missed updating the PS3 Special Edition version when the release date got bumped up. Sorry about that! We've got it corrected now and you should see the updated release date live on BestBuy.com by tomorrow.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention!
