Is the timing right for an "available in stores... RIGHT NOW"?

 

[Terbinator]

not seen anyone guess the correct date yet

The only correct date is either on the same day as the PS4 or any before then.

But i'll play ball - and without checking what day it is - say they'll go with the 17th again in the US.

And then it comes out in December.

 

[Impeccable]

I'm positive it will launch after PS4*.

Then again, I have facts on my side*.


*In some random country in the world.

 

[wotta]

Yu no nuthin, jun snuw

We'll see.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

What facts lol?

 

[Riky]

I'm guessing 8th November for the US and 22nd for the EU.

 

[wotta]

How about I DM someone the date then when announced we'll see if I was right?

 

[Alpende]

Okay, took them long enough.

 

[chadskin]

Between PS4. 15th in Murica, 29th in Europe, leaves 22nd for Xbone. If they can pull off an simultaneous worldwide launch.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

We'll see.

See what? You saying "I knew it!" after they announce it isn't cutting it.

PM or bust!

Better yet, post it here.

 

[Impeccable]

We'll see.

I suggest you send a message to a moderator with the exact date at this point.

 

[ekim]

How about I DM someone the date then when announced we'll see if I was right?

PM me

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Breaking news, MS have decided not to release Xbone. At all. Take that!

Personally, I'd like to see it release same day as PS4 just for giggles. Of course, retail staff will be living a nightmare...

 

[Appollowexx]

We'll see.

Just some friendly advice - you may want to be careful treading this path. Dangerous waters.

 

[Acheteedo]

How about I DM someone the date then when announced we'll see if I was right?

Just post it here.

 

[dkeane]

Bet they're announcing today because they have commercials for the start of football tomorrow.

 

[Terbinator]

Bet they're announcing today because they have commercials for the start of football tomorrow.

Football started two weeks ago.

 

[ryanmac]

Bet they're announcing today because they have commercials for the start of football tomorrow.

That is a smart guess.

 

[chadskin]

Bet they're announcing today because they have commercials for the start of football tomorrow.

Good point. Definitely makes sense, given their close partnership with the NFL this year.

 

[Opus Angelorum]

PM me

Yes PM ekim and if you're wrong...tag change.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Football started two weeks ago.

Football or football?

 

[derFeef]

Football started two weeks ago.

Real football.

 

[Carl]

I go for before PS4 in US, but slightly after in EU

 

[The_Monk]

Thank you for posting fellow GAFfer.

Whatever the date will be it won't be for me since I'm not in a decent country for a Day One release, it seems... Either way I hope that many GAFfers can enjoy FORZA 5 when it comes out.

 

[VE3TRO]

Why is everyone going for November. Could be very late October or early December.

I really love the way you write your posts.
Classy!

Why is everyone going for November. Could be very late October or early December.

Because MS said from the beginning that they will launch in November.

 

[Appollowexx]

I've always assumed a 22nd November WW release.

I think this is what we'll be hearing later today.

 

[Acheteedo]

Microsoft have confirmed November multiple times.

 

[chadskin]

November was confirmed by MS at E3.

Dang, beaten by the Professor.

 

[Omni]

Is the timing right for an "available in stores... RIGHT NOW"?

That would be insane.

And I totally couldn't afford to get one if that were the case. Late November seems most likely anyways

 

[BibiMaghoo]

October 28th.

Microsoft had no reason to delay the announcement other than to wait for Sony; so it would suggest they are releasing before (for maximum damage).

 

[Acheteedo]

So did wotta PM you??

 

[xXxDieselxXx]

Lets see. They announced full production started for the X1.

Will that give enough time to build enough units to release on the first week of November?

I would think it's enough time at least for NA

 

[ekim]

So did wotta PM you??

Nope.

 

[aly]

I hate announcements of announcements like this. Here I am waiting with no idea of what later on today means

 

[Acheteedo]

Nope.

Guess it's hammer time.

 

[GlamFM]

Nope.

He PM-ed me though. I´ll let you know if he was right

 

[chadskin]

Keep in mind, Xbox 360 released on November 22nd in Murica, while the European launch was on December 2nd. Would be fun if those are the dates for the Xbone as well.

 

[ekim]

Guess it's hammer time.

haha. I'm not a mod. He should send this PM to Bish or some other mod.

 

[Acheteedo]

He PM-ed me though. I´ll let you know if he was right

Actually yeah he PM'd me too, Dectembular 42nd, doesn't seem likely.
