B0MBER II Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Is this true?! This picture is not doc'd, go to http://www.ebgames.com for yourself if you think so
B0MBER II Posted March 12, 2002 Author Posted March 12, 2002 well now it is doc'd :-P anyways I hope it is true
WD_ToRMeNt Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Wow I hope that's true. It would be strange though for LEC/Raven not to have that info on thier website. On the other hand. LEC has always been secretive and close minded. Myabe we'll find something out tomarrow when we see the new trailer...
OnlyOneCanoli Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 That's interesting, to say the least. I personally don't believe much of what I read until it's on LEC's site, but I'm hoping it's true.
ryudom Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 i don't know why they'd write it if it didn't go gold yet. lucasarts must have sent them some kind of message saying it was going gold soon (tommorow). or maybe not, who knows?
Krak3n Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 rofl......well it must be true. I bet it went gold last saturday and lucas arts and raven being the torturers they are decided not to publicly anounce it. Well maybe a demo is on the card next week some time...we can only hope
Krak3n Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 rofl......well it must be true. I bet it went gold lasdt saturday and lucas arts and raven being the torturers they are decided not to publicly anounce it. Well maybe a demo is on the card next week some time...we can only hope
ps2maddenman Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 I've been keeping up with EB (since I am buying from them) and I've noticed that they have never made a gold announcement incorrectly over the last year, they have been wrong on release dates, but they do update them as the launch gets closer, the game most definately has gone gold, I am not surprised by this at all, they are probably creating mass quantities of this game so they can make some major $$$$ at launch, the anticipation of Ep2 doesn't hurt much either, this could be one of the biggest launches in PC game hx.
SlowbieOne Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Why would anyone wanna spoil the game this close to release by playing a demo? Hey, a month ago, I would've played a demo, but the game is almost out so there is no point. I too believe the game went gold Saturday as GonkH8er predicted, but LA are sneaky.....
Squalliss Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Be nice if it is true. But I will remain a spectic till I see it on LucasArts site.
MuRaSaMuNe Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Maybe they are waiting for the trailer to come out to announce it in order to draw attention to their site with a trailer and a gone gold announcement all in one day.
Moses Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Skeptic? I don't know. Computer sites are known to take a little artistic liscense when they write reviews and dates like this, but EB has a pretty good history. I'm thinking it has gone gold.
B0MBER II Posted March 12, 2002 Author Posted March 12, 2002 LEC is probably waiting until after they premire the new trailer for JK2
Squalliss Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 I have a contact at EB who just emailed myself - it indeed has gone gold. Weeeee!
DeathBoLT Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 i hope those who preordered it get it before it hits the stores...
Belgirion Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 omfg yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've waited so long for this day and now it has come!!! now I can sleep well tonight! Except now I have to wait the few torturous weeks until the release date arrives
Ihatetheblind Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 I wanna hear what one of the mods thinks about this they usually have some kind of secret sources at LEC gonk, storm, dig,...anyone?
Kurgan Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Keep in mind even if it were true, that still means it won't be in stores for another couple of weeks. I'm surprised that it's there and not anywhere else yet... !
Squalliss Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Here is what Kenn Hoekstra said on VE (http://www.ve3d.com) just a few minutes ago: "Well, I hate to do this to you but any "Gold" announcement has to come from LucasArts PR people" said Hoekstra. "Mum's the word from here, I'm afraid." He is playing it safe. He also hinted that since it had to come from LEC than that means JO is done and is now being tested.
Bowen Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Here is an email that I sent to Ken Hoekstra in repy to when is JKO going to go gold and/or be released: Either way...JKO will be out at least by April 2nd at the latest I'm thinking and perhaps as early as the 25th or 28th of March. From: "Hoekstra, Kenn" <khoekstra@ravensoft.com> To: 'xxx xxx' <xxxxxx@xxxxx.com> Subject: RE: Jedi Knight II: Outcast, DOOM III & Quake IV Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 16:26:49 -0600 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) Jedi will be out soon... Should be on the shelves in the next few weeks. As far as Quake goes, you've got it backwards, I'm afraid. Id is developing the Doom 3 game and engine and we're using the tech for Quake IV. --Kenn Kenn Hoekstra Project Administrator/ Director of Support Services Raven Software Corporation http://www.ravensoft.com/
Kurgan Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 So in other words, it's not official yet, regardless of what hogwash eb says. *bull horn* That's it folks! You can all go home now... false alarm, go back to your homes! Nothing to see here... disperse...
acgreen Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 What does doc'd mean? Also, I just checked the site and it's still there... Mysterious... AC
