i literally just spoke with customer support and they said its going to be released at 9 so sorry to say but all of us thats been up all night should just go to sleep for now
I am pretty sure the only people who are going to know it's release time are Microsoft and Bethesda, and I'm not sure but I'm almost positive that neither of their support lines are open atm in the states, especially seeing as it's currently 4 a.m. in New York. Sounds like a load of bull to me.
Luckily, I didn't put myself through a wait for Skyrim. I ordered it through Amazon, so I knew it would get to my house at exactly two o'clock. No stress that way haha
