Its always been my understanding that companies like Activision have to purchase shelf space from places like Best Buy, plus there's pre scheduled ad placements in flyers that has to be finalized months in advance. I think some of this is what leads to games being pushed out the door in a playable yet somewhat broken state requiring the usual day one patch and many follow ups.

Now that they're actually taking pre-orders for the game I can't imagine it not being pretty close to going gold, it would have been announced by now if it were to be released next month though. A delay of several months would cause a lot of people to cancel their pre-orders I imagine.
