I can't say I have my panties in a bunch. The more refining the better.

New release date middle of November, maybe before Thanksgiving. If I remember correctly that's about the same time of year the original was released. In 1999 I believe.

Have you seen the delay video on PlanetHalfLife.
It's pretty funny 😀

It's a savy business move, especially from a marketing perspective as the high inital sales figures that were expected will be further exacerbated by the Holiday rush. After all, the day after Thanksgiving is the biggest shopping day of the year and any outlet who offers it will be swamped if the release co-incides very closely. Then add that those incredible initial sales figures will in all likelyhood stimulate mainstream media coverage that it otherwise may not have garnered and the publicity alone would be worth millions were it paid for. Of course it may just be a delay in order to fine tune it as has been said but it would make sense for those reasons as well.

No more speculation please, it isn't delayed as of today so we have to wait and see.

People make millions a year simply engaging in speculation and we do it merely for fun so stop raining on the parade 😉 Besides, How can we proclaim our prescience if we don't make predictions 😛

I actually think it will make it now, not worried like I used to be.
