Oh my, I almost had a seizure!

I was browsing my local Electonic Boutique and what do I see?

A whole shelf devoted to GP3 boxes.

Surely it couldn't be out (fx:Gulp) *EARLY*! I've seen countless
RAS posts, websites and PC games mag sstating the release date in the UK
as 28th July 2000.

I nervously picked up one of the boxes, OH NO, just as I feared, ITS
EMPTY!!!

AAAARRRHHHhhhhhhhhh...........!

Then I see the (very small) print on the boxes and on the shelf
confirming, "Release date 28th July 2000".

Bastards...........

Whoever thought of that marketing gimmick should be shot. And then sat
in the comfy chair.
