Possible release date for X3 Reunion.
I've seen a lot of questions in this forum wondering about the release date. No one has mentioned that both EBGames and GameSpot have an October 17th release date and its been that way for quite a while. Amazon is also listing the date as October 21st (they are normally a few days behind).
I suppose the release date could slide but my opinion is that we are seven days from release .

Please read other topics theres absolutly tones of other "release date" topics here. And to put you right, we dont know when its coming out but we do know it will be soon like in a month or two as its going into final beta testing. So unless they have some major bugs or delays we should be ok for release soon in the next month or two im guessing. Yes im guessing which is what anyone can really do at this point which also explains companys like play.com advertising made up dates based on guess work by following the development of x3 from news they released.

I don't think we'll make that release date. It'll take at least a couple of weeks after it's gone gold for it to release and it hasn't gone gold yet.

Congratulations, you're the 500th person to point out that EBGames and other sites are listing 17th October! And you're the 500th person to be wrong in assuming that those sites have any information other than chucking a dart at a calendar.
X3 is still under testing. When it finishes testing and goes gold, the members of this forum will be amongst the first to know. Once it DOES go gold, we can reckon several weeks to get the game pressed, packaged, and shipped out to shops. Even if X3 were ready next week--and I have no idea if there's a chance of that--there's no way it'll be in the shops by the 17th.

Hmmm...this is interesting...read this quote form an interview at http://www.gamecloud.com/article.php?article_id=1693:
Gamecloud - What is the current status of the game's progress and when will it be released?
Greg Kingston - At the time of writing, we are just about to release our 4th beta version. Already we have in place a feature lock so there will be no new elements introduced from now until release and it is all about testing and fine-tuning. The testing is going well and the various teams are working overtime to report anything they see. The exact release date is down to the publishers of course but we are on target to meet their deadline. The date will be confirmed very soon but this will likely vary in some regions to allow for localisation.
And what do you know! The publisher lists the release date as the 21st...Hmmm...

Yes, I would say that the 21st October is a possible release date. But then, so is the 22nd... and the 23rd...
... and the 1st November... and the 2nd...
... and the 25th December...
I think you can see where I'm going here! As far as I can see, without news from the publisher, ANY date is a possible release date.
