Ok as you probably know i am going to america soon,and wanted to get GT3 while i was out there, but i was worried that i would be able to pick it up,so i phoned EB in florida,and he said that they have a new release date which is the 11TH OF JULY,so i went on to there website and it says the 10th OF JULY,here is the link:
http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/categories/products/product.asp?pf_id=181981&mscssid=&ref=1&promocode=
He said that the date changed 3 days ago,so if you could find out from your local stores what release date they have,that would be great: )
Also if it comes out in July in America does that mean it will come out in the UK in AUG/September,or has it got the same release date as America?
-
This is great, just ****ing great, what the **** are we in Europe supposed to do in summer?
THIS IS BAD NEWS.
But I say it again.
Why am i not suprised?
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...................
-
Yeah, EB also had FFX and FFXI scheduled to be released during the Fall of last year. We can always trust them... :rolleyes:
-
So what do you guys think?He said he wasnt sure if it was true on the phone,but it seems wierd if it wasnt,that they updated there website.
-
NOOOOOO! Not July, I can\'t stand the wait anymore!! :D
-
bloody hell, this is getting annoying all these setbacks, maybe it will come out in europe just before christmas if we are lucky
-
Fuk its true, even sonyweb changed the date
http://www.sonyweb.com/release/index.html
-
ffs the game is finished what reason is there to delay it
-
i know i find that wierd, all they have to do is translate the menus and change it to NTSC
-
i thought jap and american games were both run on ntsc, and it was only us european gamers who are on a totally different one, as in pal.
-
V|PeR, kopking-It\'s already in NTSC. Only Europe uses PAL.
Everyone-It\'s, according to THE BOUNCER, got very \'involved\' menus and I\'m sure there\'s a lot of translating that needs to be done, for the game, and the manual.
-
oh ya :)
then thats even more of a reason it shouldn\'t be delayed so much
-
Hmm... it says 6/30/01 from the official Sony sites...

EBworld is usually pretty accurate. But it\'s still not a 100% guarantee that it was delayed. (I sure hope not)

- the trick is to keep breathing.
-
If there is any truth to this, it will be posted all over the web come Mon. But, I fear that the tell-tale signs are not in our favour. Sheesh, I\'ve had this game pre-paid since Nov.!
-
i wouldnt be suprised if they push it back again, since its so close to the x-box and gamecube release.
-
WHY WHY WHY! WHY would 1 MONTH make that much of a difference, I simply do NOT understand this. The GT3 crew should come up with a reason for each time they push back the game, the fans deserve this.
-
Maybe it should never ever come out. Jesus, it was supposed to be out almost a year ago. That is just plain weak.
-
All of ya\'s whine too much
The Game got a 39/40, looks drop dead gorgeous. All this extra time has obviously paid off.
If it gets pushed back a few weeks now its obviously because of the translation
150 page manual takes quite awhile to translate properly, as does all the game menu\'s etc.
Then there will be a week or 2 of quality assurance with those translations then a week or 2 of ramping up the American version production line.
I know its sucks to wait, but it\'ll be here and after it is here no one will be complaining
Oh and check out this intro movie 10mbs great quality

I\'m with ddaryl. Would you all have been happy with GT2000, a game that promised nothing different from GT2 other than updated graphics? If Sony hadn\'t gone and delayed the game, then that\'s what you would have gotten. I for one am happy that they\'re putting so much effort into this one, as it will give the PS2 bashers one less thing to talk about.
There\'s plenty out there for you non-Japanese or non-importing folks to enjoy while you wait for GT3.
-
Be patient, as patience always pays back. Don\'t think how much you have already waited, but how short time you must wait to get your hands to GT3. You should be happy \'bout how close you actually are to the release date.
I\'m with ddaryl and \'ways on this one.

This is what i was saying on the 25th April:

Could i be right? Seems like things are going this way
-
muhahahaha! :D I\'m trying to get GT3 tommorow :)
I\'ll post ya a review ;)
-
Well atleast I can get it near my B-day! :D
-
This sucks maybe if im lucky it will come by my birthday in July
-
Yeah i remember your post now StAnZo,but i couldnt remeber who posted it(sorry)but i bet that is the case for the uk,i am with out a doubt buying an american ps2 now,if only i had a jap PS2,then it would be ok.
You dont think they are add anything like network play do you?maybe they are adding other bits and pieces,maybe more cars,stuff like that.
-
Dunno. You may find a couple of new cars in the UK version, Who is to say that they couldn\'t add more cars
whilst this is bieng translated and slightly rewriting the PAL code, if they\'ve got the time then they will probably
put some more cars in from the UK that we may well find desireable.
-
This down right sucks!
-
DAMN ! I called Electronic Boutique in Ottawa ! GT3 really was delayed ! this suck !!!!!! :(
-
Curious, has there been any official word from Sony?
-
all i know is this will really make me mad because i pre ordered it back in Jan. and now i am moving out of state in June so i won\'t be here to pick up my game - which means i will have to go crazy
and no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, no GT3 for PS2 in june make Sublime go Crazy, heheheheheheheh

This is the closest I can find to an official statement from Sony:
http://ps2.ign.com/news/34047.html
It may not be a foregone conclusion that GT3, will in fact, be delayed. We will see... crosses fingers, holds breath
