Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (GRAW) is GOLD!

Quote:
Today Ubisoft, one of the world’s largest video game publishers, is pleased to announce the official release dates of the game and that it has gone gold on Xbox360™.
Ubisoft Ghost Recon Announcement

GRAW has gone gold, big day for the 360! Should be out in a bit over a week on that platform, and other platforms should follow closely, except for the PC version which slipped to May.

$70 ?!?! WTF? No way. $60 I'm still grumbling. Supply 'n Demand in effect, and they just passed my price point.

59.95 + tax = 63 or so + shipping = 70

If you go in the store, you'll only be grumbling - that is, IF you can find a retail copy since most stores only carry pre-order copies and blow shit directly from their asses into the faces of the people who ask about store copies.

I like going to Walmart for games most of the time. The one right near me is open 24 hrs and they usually put the games out at midnight. None of the EB/Gamestop locations around here ever stay open late for big games.

GRAW, Blazing Angels, Burnout Revenge, Oblivion, The Outfit.

There's your goddamned kickass launch list; only 3 months late.

'Course, since you can really only find X360s on the shelf starting right about now, it's probably just as well.

Ugh, this whole $60 thing is just ludicrous. One of the reasons I'm avoiding the 360. That and the $400 price tag. I'd seriously consider getting one for Oblivion alone if everything wasn't so damn expensive.

Blazing Angels was pushed back to Q3

still, that just gives you more time to free up for the love those other games will require.

Why is the PC version going to take 2 more months when they aren't even going to bother making it look good/work without a patch?

We need a game like this to help bridge the gap to GoW and Halo 3. It looks like a serious title and I can't wait to get into it. Start studying those multiplayer maps boys and girls!

BleedTheFreak,

Cool Gamertag (AFeastForCrows) name BTW :-)

$60 for a game with no extras, LoL.

I can only picture newsgroup and torrent activity going up.

And also, no video game is worth $50 or $60. For the time you'll be playing it, it'll be worth $30 at best. Sorry, I don't care if the game costs millions to make. That's their problem.

Hmm. Was it really? According to this thread, there was confusion as to whether it really was delayed. Ubisoft's fiscal quarter ends in April, according to that thread. Unless you know something we don't.

Edit: Yeah, the original article from Xbox360News.com has been updated to show it's still set for March 2006.

This is the same Ghost Recon where all the videos showed the back of the main characters head, right?

No ulterior motive here... just what did you mean by this? Am I missing a joke? I have heard nothing about piracy problems on the 360.

Well everyone knows the high price of games is due to piracy.

That's why EA is dropping their prices, and why the Xbox360 games are so expensive, right? right?

Oh wait, it's because games cost so much to develop. I guess those million dollar displays at E3 are to blame.
