That's my name and how long are your summer vacations where you live?
I love it in college now. I get out on the week of May 12, come back in late August. Then Christmas break is a month long!!! I was shocked and asked my professors questions when I saw Christmas break on the calender.
I know that's how it goes down. They push SSBB back three months to add Sonic.

In England, the holidays are 6 weeks long, from late July to early September.
The only reason I'm not jealous out of my mind with this is because in England we leave school 2 years before Americans.
And what's SSBB (sorry I'm silly)?

Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Came out for the Wii. Everyone was getting mad over that game. It had to be pushed back for a year or two.

well they have had far to effin long to work on this game so if its pushed back i will be pissed especially considering they never update us. it would be different if they updated us more often..then it wouldnt be such a touchy issue for me.

I feel like we should make up a little name for this issue, for these lack of updates, I don't know what, it just feels like we need one.
Anyway, darn... just refreshed Snooty's, still birthday news (which is great and all, but...).
Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...
Whoever doesn't understand that, just... ignore me, it's probably for the best.

haha i get it its from finding nemo (0f course) and i think i get what you mean by saying that line
haha it does pertain to the situation..
thats a cute way of saying it though haha
when were talking about lack of updates we should start using that

Haha, I didn't actually realise that that saying would fit when we're talking of updates. I just thought that the saying reminded me of how we just have to keep going on even though we're not getting to where we need to be. Imagine our updates are on a island surrounded by ocean, and we just have to keep swimming to the island before we get them. Sort of like that.

well i saw it as a relation to digging for updates
but instead
"just keep swimming"
like just hang in there and keep diggin eventually something will come along
but i guess thats not what you meant by it at all..
so therefore im confused at what you meant with it hahaha
Re: About 10 months before we get to play it... - Cassie - 28-04-2008 07:23 AM
Well, as long as it makes us think about updates then... who cares?! I was just being silly anyway.

So they changed Spore from its official Sept. 2008 release date? That was announced last month. If it is pushed back to next year, I am going to remove my preorder.Well, the thing is, Spore is a totally new game, it's a concept we haven't seen before... They have to plan everything really carefully so that it sells well.
Humble sounds like he is trying to get this game out on time, and March, they were 69% done. Now they may be at 73-74%, and they got a little less than a year.
***Just breathe and have faith. It will be out on time.***
The Sims 3 is obviously an instant success; they don't have to plan everything thoroughly because it's a sequel and they already know what the fans like and don't like. It's totally different than doing something from scratch.
The release date may be pushed back, but never as dramatically, in my opinion.
