hmm

Not good, although retailers are notoriously wrong.

Don't trust anybody when it comes to release dates. When the game goes gold, you can start warming up to them, but don't trust them completely then either.

 

[LUSITANO]

Not really, that was the date that was given to me a month ago at EB.

Good god! :O

 

[Headwires]

its not goin to be out sep 02 now, no chance. so its pretty obvious they are goin to change their dates.

 

[Annatar]

EB still shows it on September 1st, although Amazon recently changed to a November 1st release date, and while Bestbuy still shows it on August 26th, their delivery estimate puts it November 5-10. Guess we'll have to see.
