Verify Feb 21 is the date for retail availability?

January 31, 2006 2:27:03 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Hi,

The posting titled "NEAR GOLD SCREENSHOTS" says the date that the game will be available from retail stores is February 21. I had thought this was going to be Feb 25 from info a month ago. I need to know the exact date cause I'm taking that and the next day off for vacation So I'd really hate to be a day too early and be screaming "I WANT MY FRICKIN GALCIV2!!!" at the top of my lungs all day...

Thanks a million for those new screenshots by the way, they are quite slobber-inducing...

The game should ship to stores around February 21st the way things look right now. It generally takes retail stores a couple days to get their copies from the ship date, so it's impossible to give you an exact date.

OK, thanks Yarlen, I'll go harass my local EB where I pre-ordered the game.

if its shipping to stores 21-2 then its gold a fair bit before that - so when will digital download of the full version be available for us pre-payers who have bought the download~?

So that the download servers are not overloaded Feb. 21th, maybe you should make the release available a few days early to the beta testers to spread the load.

Yes, Feb 2nd sounds like a good date to me.
Or how about 02-06-2006? Irresistible, right? *puts on his nicest smile*

I'm going to need the download servers as is...

Perhaps opening at Midnight would help- not many are up then...
(or even 10pm ET on the 20th)

Hey, what about us Europeans? I haven't seen something specific. Or is Feb.21th a global release date or something?
