Aussie release date? *Warning contains large amounts of angst*

Azrael · 06-21-2001, 06:37 AM

Has anyone in Australia got TOB or heard of a release date earlier than the 3rd of July? Considering EB in America has already got it you think the Aussie branch could do better than 2 weeks later!!

*Goes to grumble over the lack of TOB sweetness*

But yanks are such easy targets

But anyway I digress,
I really respected Interplay for releasing BG2 at the same time all over (most) of the world, but it seems they have bowed to comsumer pressure and rush released TOB. (if the MAJOR dialog bug's are any indication)
It seems a shame that they have almost set themselves up for a big warez traffic in the add-on with some countries having to wait nearly a month for it after the US release.

I'm getting ToB tomorrow, driving over to Fedex in Alexandria to pick it up, they tried to deliver it today but I was at work.

I've got Monday (and Tuesday morning) off as well so I don't expect to be doing anything this weekend. I've already switched my mobile off and am screening all house calls. Don't expect me to be around much this weekend! I'm just glad Taryn (my GF) is in Germany at the moment.

In fairness to Interplay, the dialog and other major bugs reported are all because of third party patches, installs and customized stuff that people had. I guess they didn't realize how many people customized their game.
