SmkJaguar Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 Something seems to be wrong. The game is slated by several distribution points as being released in early December for the US X Box, but checking the official Lucas Arts site, I notice a distinct lack of a preorder available in their on-line store. Just a disquieting message (considering how little time is left between now and the supposed release) saying Pre-order available soon. Perhaps the unforseen has happened? I wonder what problems would occur if the hint book gets released on time (a DVD enhanced version is set for Nov 30, a little over a week away), yet the game gets delayed a month (for the US X Box players)... Thinking on it, I'm more than likely jumping to wild conclusions, still ... I can't help but wonder. :ph34r:
GhostofAnakin Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 If it were delayed, I'd be interested to see the reaction from those XBox gamers who insisted PC gamers were whiners because they got "lied to" by Lucasarts. I'm curious how they'd handle being deceived. " "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)

When it happened to us, it was the worst thing ever perpetrated in this industry. But if it happens to you guys, then that's just comedy gold.

Kazic Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 LOL, I'm a bit worried too. Release is supposedly two weeks away. If that's true the "gane gold announcement" should cone very very soon because it takes about 2 weeks to mass produce the games and get them shipped out to stores. If it is on time, they're cutting it awfully close. Welcome to the Pink side of the Force Revenge is a dish best served in a warm, pink tupperware dish! Grrrr to Atris! Snooty, stuck-up little....

Laozi Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 Well its probaly not the case, a "friend of a friend" who works at XboX magazine already has the full version of the game. But if he's lying I'm going to break his legs People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world.

Kazic Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 They're probably in final testing stages but still...I'm a little worried...

I would be pissed like most people would be but I don't think it would affect me greatly since I would merely go pick it up asap (besides I wouldn't to surprised since I have been kinda waiting for the other shoe to drop on this little feasco{sp?}). But if it does happen I can see these boards falling into another dark age much like it did a few months ago when it was released that the majority of the gammers had been lied to since day one. I know its easy to say now but I guess the only way to know for sure is to wait and see what happens. "The only difference between genius and stupidity is genius has its limits!" - Albert Einstein.

MASTER Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 They're probably in final testing stages but still...I'm a little worried... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If it is still in that stage (which all last previews do not match up with) then the earliest we will get it is Janurary if lucky. I am with laozi it will come out on time becuase so many places have full copies already.
Kazic Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 They have preview copies not final copies. Any one know how long it usually takes to get from preview to final?

Stargate: 2000 Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 They have preview copies not final copies. Any one know how long it usually takes to get from preview to final? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> according to the last article from IGN they have the final version.

MASTER Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 I was under the impersion most previews were not 6+ hours
Kazic Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 I coulda sworn they said they had a preview copy. If they've got a final version what's holding up the gold announcement?

Laozi Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 I'll almost positive they've said that they have the final version and that no more changes are going to occur to the game, of course I don't work for anyone so basically I'm talking out of my ass People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world.

MASTER Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 maybe they are going to have a surprise ship date like tommor, but if any body ask you did not here it from me.
Bastilla_Skywalker Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 first off...lucasarts says that the game is released on december 6th? but i must agree it still says pre-order coming soon *lol* there is only approx 12 days till the game comes out...and the pre-order should've been up by now,actually it shouldve even been up a few months eariler...and there is no anouncments that the game has offically gone gold at all any where.for the game to be released and gone gold it would have to be this week coming,unless we would be left *in the slumber* by lucasarts <_< i also remember when kotor was delayed and delayed and delayed and delayed and delayed and delayed.....bla bla bla and man it was painful Press Teh Button
MASTER Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 kotor was delayed then it should be all right like I said if they deleayed untill 09 it be cool just better be a ****ing awsome game.

SilverSun Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 because it takes about 2 weeks to mass produce the games and get them shipped out to stores. If it is on time, they're cutting it awfully close. After a game goes gold it's usually 7 to 8 days later that it's shipped,not two weeks. So I wouldn't expect to see anything saying it's going gold till right before the 1st of Dec. If it's late it's late,nothing anyone can do about that.
Rosbjerg Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 now I have to ask .. because I'm not sure .. going Gold? Fortune favors the bald.
