why do developers always push the release date of this game?

To modify, change, and tweak the game. Or maybe simply to add-on to the game.

on elderscrolls.com they talk about spring 2002 in the forums and such, but im HOPING that is the PC version

Amazon.com has the 18th...and I hope they are close, but ebgames.com's date is better! I really dont want to have a large gap until a good xbox game comes out again...

Hey, it's better to DELAY a game, then to RUSH a game.

**X-Factor** · 02-10-2002

Infact, most games that get delayed end up being the most solid, polished titles of them all.

**Bundy** · 02-11-2002

ebgames has finally updated there release date. It now shows 4/23. I wonder why it took them so long when other sites had this date a few weeks ago?

**Nato King** · 02-11-2002

If any of you guys have a link to a site that says the delay date please post it. Until than I am going with Feb 15. I just want to see it in writing ok.

**Bundy** · 02-11-2002

2 sites good enough for ya?

Just yesterday, EBWorld.com had it being released on Friday the 15th. Now today it says April 23rd!!!!!!!!!

Delayed games is part of the gaming world. It happens regardless of the system and other things. The only reason why gamers get a little steamed is because their excitement and anticipation is so high. X-Factor said it best when he stated that it's better to delay a game than rush a game. He's 100% correct.

I would wait through a year delay (or even more) if Brute Force or Unreal Championship were delayed because those two games are my most highly anticipated games. But, I want them done right...and if that means I have to wait, if that becomes the case, I will without a problem.

It's natural to be disappointed...but, keep in mind that when Morrowind dows come out, it will be exactly what the developers wanted, eventhough it is delayed. If you ask me, time flies...April is right around the corner! Quite frankly, from what I understand that they are doing, April almost seems a little soon if you ask me!

couldnt have said it any better.......id much rather have the developers delay the game a bit, and have it come out exactly how they wanted it to, then to rush and have us miss out on sum aspects of the game that wouldve rocked!!!

If that is true, then, why in the hell do major retail chains have in their schedules that it was supposed to be in their stores on March 16th? Take Electronics Boutique, for example. Do you think they just made up a random date and crossed their fingers?

sum sites have even said as early as this friday......but i guess they just threw a dart at their calendar.....and WHOA - 2/15!!!

If you talk to EB workers who in my area I know well seeing as after work most times we kick back and have some drinks well they do I just drink water cause I don't really drink anyways they get there information for their HQ and the HQ gets it a project release date which has no meaning. And since you are trying to be a smart ass here is the simple e-mail I got from PETE HINES.... And if you don't believe me PM me and I will forward the e-mail.
