Three cheers!

Huzzah, huzzah, huzzah!

But what of the more important UK release?

1st of October or perhaps 24 September?

Why is the US always earlier being a large country while UK etc. are later?

**Sir Robin** · 09-13-2004, 17:44

Its almost party time!

**MadKow** · 09-13-2004, 17:45

I just noticed Amazon.co.uk from which i pre-ordered changed the release date from September 23rd to October 1st.

We received an Activision press release, announcing that Rome: Total War has been released to manufacturing and thus has gone gold. Creative Assembly's newest strategy game will be shipping to North American stores September 22.

Find the story here

oops, missed the other topic somehow ... pls delete

Week and a half, Week and a half, Week and a half, Week and a half, w00t. Till my pre-ordered is at my local EB games store.

**Tamur** · 09-13-2004, 17:58

I think I can stay alive till Wednesday next week... just have to watch out for hurricanes, floods, insurrections, lightning, amok elephants...

Though once I have it in my hands, I have a feeling that I'll be suddenly struck down with a raging fever

Wow ... you really just put it into perspective for me. Work has been so busy I still had the mindset that Sept. 22 is like 3 weeks away.

I'm actually going to be expaning the Roman empire in 8 days time.

**Stuie** · 09-13-2004, 18:30

Ships on the 22nd. Won't be in stores until the 23rd. And then only the stores (like EB) that use over-night shipping for their distribution. Count on it.

**Tamur** · 09-13-2004, 18:39

Hmm, good point. So I guess we can use the extra 24 hours to do everything that we WON'T be doing for the week afterwards.

**Basileus** · 09-13-2004, 18:56

At last, now to get free time to play heh...good thing i got my own buissness total warrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

**RTKLamorak** · 09-13-2004, 19:02

wooot! great news .. BUT

"shipping to North American stores September 22"

if UK release is later that will be more than just mildly irritating

**Cloudkill** · 09-13-2004, 19:02

Hmm, it's surprising that no one here has yet said anything stupid like "It doesn't matter, I'm not buying it." I've never looked forward to a game more in my life.

**Patricius** · 09-13-2004, 19:36

Nineteen days. Grr arggh

:

:

Tony Blair being W's.... slave should have at least got a September release.

**Myrddraal** · 09-13-2004, 19:48

Good news no?
Hope UK release wont be too long after...
I envy all u people in the USA.

Yeah, but the publisher, Activision, is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.

**The_Emperor** · 09-13-2004, 20:11

And there was much rejoicing!!

Much drinking and some celebratory games... Whoohoo!!

**-Isapostolos-** · 09-13-2004, 21:03

Europe is getting it the 24th, just two days behind the yanks. Free record shop was right after all!

**The_Emperor** · 09-13-2004, 21:33

Your going to get it Aymar, you just won't tell us...

**Soulflame** · 09-13-2004, 22:01

Nice, finally they announced it.

Now I need to research where it's going to be the earliest here in the Netherlands, and at a nice price..

Honestelly...

...I still haven't decided. But Cloudkill was deserving that kind of answer...
