ToAU release date changed?

[Uzor]

On April 20th, 2006, the Treasures of Aht Urhgan Expansion Disc will eb shipped.

Does that mean the release dat is set to 20th instead of 18th? ;

That is the release date for the X360 version. PC is 2 days before X360.

Edit: Actually Im not 100% sure. Best buy says 20th for X360 but other sites sat 18th > http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7294714&type=product&id=1118841876912

No, its being shipped on that 20. Its still being released on the 18th.

That makes sense to me, but I could b wrong.

 

[Vilmar]

i know NA players get it on tuesday and EU players are getting it that friday.

How is something released the 18th but shipped the 20th? It makes no sense.

I asked my EB. They said they'll be selling it on the 19th(they sell everything 1 day after release date) so it seems normal for me.

NA players actually get it before JP players which means.... it'll have no HNMs that'll be worth camping ftw (atleast for items.. bet they could be quite fun to fight)

Technically, we get it the same day. loltimezones.

By the time the first set of EST stores open and get thier copies, it'll be the 19th in Japan.

 

[Elemmire]

really? I thought they got it later (not the timezone thing too >.> really.. thought it was like.. friday for them too.. so thursday for NA)

 

[Skaw]

Most game stores(EB, GameStop, etc) Open at 9 AM. Deliveries usually don't arrive until 10 AM/11 AM the following day of the ship date.. Sometimes later than that. 14 hour difference. 10 AM April 19th EST = 2 AM April 20th JST. So. 7+ Hour difference we have on them. Then you have to factor in file scanning and Japanese friendly maintenance periods, which there most likely will be an extremely long one on that day. It'll all even out.

exactly, what many people dont understand is that matter can not be moved instantly through thin air. it takes a while to get from Cally over to NY.

I bet it will get to NY faster than it will get to say, Iowa lol

I work at Best Buy and the system says Best Buy won't have it until the 22nd. Now I've just got to check my discount on it and see if it's worth it to wait a few more days...

that's not my point... my point is that the release date is set for 18th, but the shipping date is set for 20th, which would mean the release date isn't untill 20th according to SE.

 

[Lanien]

I think they put the official release date at the 20th because most companies receive it on the 19th and might not be able to get it out to shelves and in inventory til the 20th.

 

[Ithenas]

at least it won't be as bad as chains of helpmei'mchainedtoarockandvultureseatoutmyinstestineseveryday

Yeah, at least there's no natural disaster to stop the release.

Haha actually Iowa's not too bad. I remember getting a few games before they were supposed to be sold. One I remember correctly getting a day before was D2:LoD . I think I got it on the day it was "Released" When all other stores sold it a day later. Early in my opinion

 

[masterorion]

i went to gamestop earlier and asked about a change in date. the guy said, and i quote "the release date is the 18th, but we wont have it in store till the 19th." so, ill be getting a call from them sometime around 2pm or so to pick up my copy as per the guy that works there
