You can order (or pre-order in this case) games off the internet.
If you live i the if you live in America you can order it from
www.Amazon.com, if you live in the UK you can order it from
www.Amazon.co.uk by going on the Starwars galaxies site, setting up an account and pre-ordering the game.
So as soon as the game comes out (in your area) you get it almost straight away since it has first class posting.
Hope I've helped (and not been too patronising).
