Hey people, I just noticed today that Amazon.co.uk changed the release date from 27th june to the 13th of june (thats a novelty, a date being moved forward instead of way-away into the future) !!!
That must mean something (positive) Right? |

Probably, but probably not. Rumor is a rumor, so don't rely on it.
Just wait until they give us a "gone gold" announcement or some sort. |

Well, yeah, june 13th is a rumor so there is not really a point of debating over it...
But I was just referring to how optimistic it seems that a usually responsible company like amazon, actually pushes the release date forward for a start.
They were after all the first to push it backwards every time, in the incessant chain of delays in the past few months, (I know, I was checking at least once a week ).
Well, we'll have to wait and see (as always ). |

Some larger Australian online gamestores have now listed G2 (with Atari/Infogrames updated as the supplier) and a date of 18/7 which lends more weight to this date for Australia. I would still be surprised if the US date was much beyond this, although this is just my opinion.
Surprisingly (at least to me) it's priced as a budget title at AUS$49 (instead of the usual AUS$89) or about US$31. |

well i'm not that positive anymore.Sure it would be nice surprise to get Gothic2 released at june 13:th but after all these rumours and "possible release dates", i'm kind of loosing my hope for playing G2 this summer.
Lets hope the best and fear the worst. _________________ The focused mind can pierce through stone |

I only meant that some dates are more official than others, and the general market situation is well known.
I cleaned the thread. Some spam and redundant posts are gone. _________________ Webmaster GothicDot |

Has anyone actually asked WHY the release of Gothic II has been held back so long?
All the localization issues were done and dusted 2 motnhs ago.
I have a horrible feeling its the damn marketing 'genius's ' again.......
TB
ps: My Amazon account lists Gothic 2 'estimated dekivery date' as 13th June 2003 |
