I already figured it would be September or August.

Seems to be lots of news these days.

[USMCNJ]

well they said that the demo will be out in the fall.
fall start on 9/22.
It is unlikly that the demo will come out before the game.

Sorry to spoil the party, but EBGames are not reliable because they sometimes give a reasonable estimation, but no exact dates. I know from experience, we use it as a reference a lot. CA would say it out loud first before leaking it to EBG; my guess, at least.

Interesting...there are 18 reviews already there even though the game isnt due to be out for a long time http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/rolleyes.gif

Although I would like that date to be set in stone, keep in mind EB still has Half-Life 2 and Doom 3's release dates as the next few months (refuses to hold breath on those http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-embarassed.gif ) http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-stunned.gif

wow great find todorp I wonder if that is just not updated but I don't see why it wouldn't be updated... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/flat.gif

Yeah EB games always makes up dates. Usually they make up optimistic ones to get people to pre-order as you're more likely to do it for a game that's 4 months away than one that's still 2 years away.

Subject to change Now I guess that's the important part.

Im willing to bet for a september release.

[Talbot]

Remember people, games are always released late. Tack on a couple months to any official release date.
