Meshugger Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 http://cargobay.starwars.com/webapps/cargo...em-detail/16233 StarWars.com thinks the game is coming out early. starwars.com Collecting Cargo Bay Games Video Games XBox Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords Manufacturer: LucasArts Release Date: 01 Dec 2004 MSRP: 49.99 USD Country: United States Platform: Xbox <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wow, one week earlier than expected. Yay!

Akari Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 No no no, it means that Akari is getting to play our game. We want our game Akari. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, when I have time to play it someday, I'll let you know! Anyway, just thought I'd mention some things related to this thread: We haven't heard about any change in the PC release dates, so I don't know anything about that. Once LA announced that the PC version would be coming out in Feb, they stopped QA'ing the PC version to focus on the Xbox QA'ing. This means that the PC version hasn't been getting tested for the last two months or so. As a result, we won't be turning in the PC version at the same time we turn in the Xbox version. This will technically give us time to do some things with it that we won't have the time to do with the Xbox. I can't say with certainty what will come from this additional time though. PC testing will probably start up sometime real soon, likely within the next couple of weeks, which means that I'll be working on KotOR2 for a good while yet. -Akari

Xboxers get screwed over with less content. Way to go M$ & LA : Piss-off everybody is the name of the game. :angry: BUT...I don't care: I use Linux...I hate everyone!

Laozi Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 I imagine that any additional content, will be pretty much on par with KOTOR 1. Nothing really to get upset about if you're an XboX owner People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
envida Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 They can flame me all they want I'm just tired of all this. I cant wait to play the game, that's why I'm here to get a fix for my obsession :D But every thread turns into this bashing/conspiracy theories about microsoft/lucasarts and so. I wanna discuss/read about the game dammit. In all fairness I understand pc gamers frustration but at this point I think it would be rather funny to see lucasarts post a statement saying the pc version has been cancelled due to too high demands from pc gamers (they want a better game than xbox) because of that they wont be able to complete the game hahaha
TheHutt Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 We don't get screwed over I think you're being a pecimist. Look at it this way... PC comes out later but has more content! YAY... Xbox comes out earlier! but has less content ( keeping in mind that you can easily obtain this eXtra content by using LIVE. [ most people will be getting LIVE when halo2 comes out.] ) In a way it's win win for both sides... I feel bad for linux users still.... you will always loose... "har har har" j/p!
jaguars4ever Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 I feel bad for linux users still.... you will always loose... "har har har" j/p! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Our time will come, I tell you! Your source-code paying ways will come to an end, it will!

If so then this is great news. B)
Craftsman Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 PC will get the interchangeable hoods im sure.
Fardragon Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 I've just looked on Amazon UK and they are listing April 29th 2005 for PC version and March 4th 2005 for x-box!! Everyone knows Science Fiction is really cool. You know what PoE really needs? Spaceships! There isn't any game that wouldn't be improved by a space combat minigame. Adding one to PoE would send sales skyrocketing, and ensure the game was remembered for all time!!!!!
Powerslave Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 Oh boy. Now we have hourly updates on what worldwide amazon sites list as a release date. People just need to get out more IMO
Cpt. Needa Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 PC will get the interchangeable hoods im sure. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And beards, right? :D

ShinIchiro Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 Amazon has a tendency to use the original release dates promoted and to not update until the game comes out (or sometimes never update).
Astatine Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 Amazon has a tendency to use the original release dates promoted and to not update until the game comes out (or sometimes never update). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In which case they ought to still be saying February for all versions! Well, if Amazon are right I think I shall be importing the US PC release... <_<

adrich81 Posted October 22, 2004 Author Posted October 22, 2004 Assuming in the worst case that the UK distributors hold the game back for one nefarious reason or another - can anyone in the US recommend a decent online retailer that ships to the UK? Looks like Amazon won't ship software to the UK
envida Posted October 22, 2004 Posted October 22, 2004 EB Games. Thats where I have pre-ordered my game

starwarskid15_19 Posted October 22, 2004 Posted October 22, 2004 amazons dates are wrong the force is what gives a jedi his power. its an energy field created by all living things. it surrounds us and penetrates us. it binds the galaxy together
adrich81 Posted October 22, 2004 Author Posted October 22, 2004 EB Games. Thats where I have pre-ordered my game <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Unfortunately it doesn't look like they actually deliver to the UK at least, it wasn't listed as one of the country options, which is a real bummer. Does anyone have any experience of gamestop? They ship to the UK, but I've got no idea what their serivce is like...
