well you could at least explain it to him...

In mid-february, Core/Eidos delayed TRAOD again in order to polish and work out any bugs in the game. 4th Quarter doesnt mean winter, it means April-June-ish. All game stores are saying it should be in April, but probably late April, early May, but no one knows anything beyond that really (so don't ask).

I wouldn't bet on it being any sooner than June. This game has proven that you can only count on it at the latest possible date.

Why does it take so long before TRAoD is released! I'm waiting for about half a year now and I'm tired of it!

Don't talk like that! Even in jest! I was just beginning to believe your weren't the reincarnation of the TR's Bain!


Everyone else, go play in the traffic, it'll be done when it's done, they can't cook with you whining underfoot all the time.

Try waiting for FF-XI, which will be delayed two years by the time it comes out, and all so Evercrack can be sold first, too.

How do you know the Feb. release was full of bugs? I didn't get to play it to know that; did you?

It's a figure of speech. Any program that is still being worked on must have the code de-bugged regularly while it's being written as a matter of course.

They (Core) have had PLENTY of time to finish the game. But I wouldn't say I'm tired of waiting. I'll still get the game when it comes out...I just have to be patient. Anyway, I'm still playing TR4. I never finished it. I've been busy lately.

I haven't finished TR4 either. Or even TR1, for that matter! And I call myself a Tomb Raider fanatic....feel free to stone me to death.

Anyways, I was browsing EB Games.com, and there's a link to pre-order TR:AoD....and it says that it ships on April 21st. APRIL 21ST, people. Check it out yourself if you don't believe me. Here 's the link.
