Bring it on! I made a point yesterday of training all of the roles and the balance between them is perfect. I'm ready to see the rest of the maps and get a TG server with VOIP online.

Re: Countdown to US Release

How do you know the game will be released in 15 days when both Koas and THQ haven't given a firm date?

Cat squirreled away some money, so I'll buy whenever it's released.

Due to my most recent psych evaluation (due to the last court case I had listed), I again must disclose the following. Please do not take any posts made by Catman seriously, we have found defects in his thought processes that lead him sometimes to act as, what the internet would call a forum troll. He feels any attention is better than no attention and must have it at all costs, even his own dignity, well if he had any left. If you begin to take his posts seriously, please call us you are in need of serious psychiatric attention. We are available 24/7 at 1-800-OMGIMNUTS, please scream into the phone as soon as it's answered, we will identify you as a catman follower from that and direct your call to someone who can attend to you immediately.

Re: Countdown to US Release

Retail stores always have made up dates in order to sell preorders.

Look, I can preorder Battlefield 3, a game that EA or Dice haven't even stated exists.

I wouldn't hold your breath.

Re: Countdown to US Release

Although... www.frontlines.com (the official site), DOES have an "order now" tab at the bottom - which takes you to THQ - which links to all those stores with the Feb 25 date. <shrug> hopefully it's real

Also - are games typically released on a specific day of the week? (Like how music is/was released on Tuesdays for whatever reason) The 25th is a Monday FWIW

Re: Countdown to US Release

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=32768

THQ released their Q3 financial results and stated
"We continue to strengthen our product development capabilities to support our long-term strategy of creating new owned intellectual properties. We look forward to launching Frontlines: Fuel of War at the end of this month."

this to me is a strong indicator of release date

however I do acknowledge to Zoopy there is a lack of a 'gone gold' media release that I would expect about now

I would also expect reviews about now

a positive indication is the xbox multi player demo is out today

overall I am sticking to my assertion that the date is 25th

so ...


14 days to go

Re: Countdown to US Release

lol, I can't wait, hopefully I can just pick one up in-store. I've been lucky so far. Got madden, 2142, and Cod4 in-store. Only problems were going to a 2 different stores to get madden and CoD4 gave me a scare at bestbuy, but they trucked out a cartful right as I was turning to go home empty handed

My copy is pre-ordered with best buy. The order is tied to the store closest to me, but I'm keepin' my fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong.
