I usually hear about some people getting games and things before street date release by pre-ordering. Is it common.

It happens, but its not common. If it were, they would change the estimated date to the more common actual delivery date...

FedEx used to ALWAYS be a day early. But the last time I used them, they delivered my package about a week late, and the box was ripped open!!!

I got Left 4 Dead the day before its release but I couldn't play it until Steam unlocked it, so it didn't really matter.

Its never happened for me. Pissed me off last week because they had my package at my local UPS hub a day before the estimated delivery and they held it until the next day to ship! It had arrived at 2:00 AM so that was plenty of time for them to ship it that day.

That's what's happening within my case. I ordered Samurai Shodown Anthology on PS2 from Wal-Mart.com last Tuesday with standard shipping. It has yet to arrive. Though it said that I should be getting it by either Monday or Tuesday this week.

Sometimes they do. Most of the time they don't.

I think once I got a package a day early from UPS, but that is it. FedEX seems to do it all of time. Over half of the time I have gotten packages a day or even two days early.
