Guys this is not in their hands. Console games don't have to go though review process, or testing on older devices with less RAM. Just wait.
No! It would be in their hand to give a clear statement like: "It was submitted on xx.xx 2009." But the only shit we get are unclear comments that we can think it is in the approvel at Apple ... but no confirmation. It is no good way to care about their customers ... they should think about it.
If I compare the time from submitting to the release (Uniwars, MYFC etc.) it should be out ... I cannot imagine that it take for a EA game longer than for smaller developers ... I would think, it should even run faster ...
Ahem, fresh off the EA forums... He hinted that we might be able to play this game this week: Not at all that long my friends. I can't promise anything (obviously, I don't get to decide these things) but you might be playing this game within the week. There's no way for me to give you an exact date because it's out of our hands right now. Meanwhile, we just released 3 games (Trivial Pursuit, Lemonade Tycoon and Pandemonium) so you can see we've been busy. I have learned something from this thread...there's a lot of mystery and misunderstanding about releasing a game. Perhaps we can pickup this discussion in another forum - you guys should be aware of the challenges and complexities that go along with bringing a game to market. CraigLaw
What do you mean perhaps it will be out to Christmas so that they have enough time to plan the release???
It was a joke... a bad one. Hopefully itll be, like he said, this week. Prefferably before friday, as ill be in chicago for the weekend, without access to my itunes library...
Lol thanks for the clearup. Hopefully it will be out this week, that will be a rough weekend without NFS
the question, was it already approved by apple? time would suggest that. So, it's big EA to set the date... strategy: tell the clients its out "soon" and they'll go crazy. but give them no further details, just some shots to make them hot!
No one knows when it will arrive on itunes but im really holding my money for this app.do not have any racing games until now except the fast lane which for some reason i do not like it.Hope this lives to the expectation. I skipped buying cjs and AC for this.!!
If it comes out this week, I'm definitely gonna buy it on the first day. Now I just need to go to the store to get another iTunes gift card....
