Gah!
Tomorrow, if my copy of "Rome: Total War" is not waiting for me at my local GAME outlet where I reserved it, I shall raze the shop to the ground, by Crom!

1st October is the generally assumed release for RTW, has been for a while now. Where have you been?
1st of october man :)
Dude - keep up. Game are full o s***. Activision stated a looong time ago that we UKers wouldn't get it until the 1st October innit :wall:
I preordered my copy from Game (well it was formerly Electronics Boutique til they changed the sign above the door a while back), anyways they told me that it was the 1st October.
Now I know from past experience that UK Games releases tend to favor fridays, so if it wasn't going to be the 24th it was always going to be the 1st.
In the meantime we have to put up with the taunting from across the atlantic for a week...
This could be a blessing in disguise, given the number of problems the Americans have been reporting - and that is just trying to install it (see the RTW tech support forum at the .com.).
At least the rest of us will get the benefit of a week in which most of the major bugs will have been reported, and work arounds hopefully found.
Bah.
If I'm going to raze my local Game shop to the ground, I'd best put in another pre-order at Gamestation. :charge:
One week won't kill me.
Much.
Bah!
Azrael :furious3:
i'm in Adelaide and the local game shops has it already this am, I've just done my electric order and will pick it up this pm if everything happens as planned. I think this time CA did have a spontenous release. well done! :charge:
The online-shop where I preordered my english version (should be the UK one) changed yesterday the release date to 30.9. . So maybe I will get it earlier here in Germany than you in UK? ~:)

IIRC germany gets it earlier than the uk anyway. (think it says this on the official site)
Yes the german version is scheduled for 29.9. but also the english version is one day earlier than in UK (30.9. for germany 1.10. for UK). The US version is scheduled for 27.9. (at least in germany).Quote:

@shaitan
Can you really in germany order online a US or UK version?
As you are getting it the earliest in europe, i would like to get it from germany.
Cheers.

So if your are not from germany it could get difficult. But you should ask the guys from okaysoft.de. They are really nice and helpful.
