Title: On this day glorious day, April 6th, 2005...
Post by: schild on April 06, 2005, 09:06:03 AM
...not a single interesting thing happened in the world of gaming. There's simply nothing to report. Well, at least as of 12 noon. I'd apologize but this is probably just some sort of twisted calm before the storm.

I expect UBISoft and EA to duke it out in a steel cage any day now. Or not.

So. Bored.

Hey, schildy- Can I call you schildy?
Did the Zelda preorder end up being a hoax? April 1st came and went and no mention of it.

Figures. Oh well. I'm still gonna go ahead and preorder. Is the EB games ship date the truth(edit: just checked and now it's fucking November)? Nintendo was shooting for May or June for release, weren't they? What the fuck is up wit dat? I realize that EB has to cover their ass in case games come out later, but a six month buffer? Ninja, please!

They were always shooting for a just before Christmas release. At least once press releases started coming out.
