Xbox Release Dates Revealed?
Could these be the actual release dates for some high-profile Xbox games?
July 2, 2001
Retail stores such as EB and Babbages usually receive release dates for games long before others do. Today we received this list of what is apparently a copy of the Xbox release dates out of Babbage\'s computer system.
While none of this is officially confirmed, there are some new titles revealed on this list. Specifically Blood Omen 2, Salt Lake 2002, Tetris Worlds, Trophy Bass, Commandos 2, Hitman 2, Project Eden, and Wave Rally. Also, you can notice the first dates for the big Sega titles including the "2K2" games.

This list is missing DOA3, and Madden. And project Eden is a ps2 game. Unless there is news to be let out. But very nice:) I hope Raw is war comes out on the 8 and not the 15. Because I don\'t want to run back and forth to the store. But until it is finalized I am hoping for the 8th.
Edit: Jonny drama is being redone so it won\'t be out bye january. Yeah and I want blood awake THPS2X, gunvalkyrie, and Enclave added to that list as well. Well this is not an official list anyways so I\'ll zip it.

Wasn\'t JSRF supose to be released 2 weeks after console launch? Any ways this is not final list. I saw this posted on msxbox. Some guy who works for EB claims he saw this list on the comp at work.

There are a few good games but the only one that I think I might like is RAW IS WAR . About 16 of those on the list are on ps2 so I don\'t want to waste money on the Xbox because I already have a PS2, I\'ll just get Smackdown 3 on ps2 that might be better than Raw anyway.I\'ll get a Gamecube instead most of there games are exclusive and made by Nintendo games with quality.

Core slams Xbox claims
According to US reports, Project Eden and Thunderhawk are heading to Xbox. Tomb Raider outfit Core Design has other ideas…
Xbox.ign.com published what it believes to be a retail list for Xbox titles in the States yesterday, claiming that Project Eden, Core’s team based futuristic adventure, and helicopter shooter Thunderhawk: Operation Phoenix are both scheduled for Xbox launch. Both titles are currently in development for PlayStation 2, with Eden getting a PC outing in addition.
"We have nothing confirmed for Xbox at the moment, and I really have no idea where this came from," ranted a spokesperson for the company. "I was in publishing meetings yesterday and there was no mention of Xbox. Even Race Nation [previously confirmed for the Microsoft console] is now unconfirmed."
Aside from the now platform wandering Race Nation, the only other title Core is supposedly developing for Xbox is Next Generation Tomb Raider. Casting even further doubt on the report’s claims, Thunderhawk is listed by the site as launching on October 16: three weeks before the release of Xbox itself in the US on November 8. Madden NFL 2002 and NASCAR Thunder 2002 are also listed as October releases.
Also listed are Commandos 2, Blood Omen 2 and Hitman 2 from Eidos. "We’ve heard nothing about Commandos and Hitman going to Xbox, but it might happen in the future," said an Eidos spokesperson. Blood Omen 2 is a cert: Eidos showed the game on Xbox behind closed doors at E3.
Looks like Xbox isn\'t quite as well supported as some would wish to believe.
I dont know if its old news..
It was posted on IGN Boards...

Commandos 2, Blood Omen 2 and Hitman 2 and project eden. Well BOM2 and project EDen are ok titles but nothing to get excited about. And that list was never confirmed bye microsoft. Some loser probally put that list together in his bed room.

This list si BS. All stores like EB and babbages have a list of games and THERE EXPECTED release dates. Most of the time they PREDICT the dates of the games...
If you use a little common sense you could deduct this for yourselves.....
notice that the list has games coming out in OCtober ....THATS BEFORE THE CONSOLE IS EVEN OUT.
Last time I checked A game has NEVER come out before the console that is required to play it on has come out.
This is NOT the OFFICIAL release date list. ITs EB\'s PREDICTIONS. The official list will be here soon enough:D

Slight correction, GBA games came out up to and including a week before the launch of the handheld.
