Default OT_ MOO3

just saw this at www.gonegold.com

sorry if this is old news. I didn't do much of a search here.

"Master of Orion 3

I have this one pre-ordered and just received notice that the new date for the game is Q1/03. Will be checking into this further, but it's not looking good.

We are writing to let you know that we have changed the projected ship date for Master Of Orion 3 to 1/1/03. The publisher did not provide us with a specific date so this is our best estimate only and should not be considered firm. We will update this date again as we receive new information.

From past experience, when news like this hits, it's been pretty accurate. The slip has been anyway, not the actual ship date. That's why I would post it as Q1/03."

No, not new news. The Last we heard was October. Sounds like they are having a bit of a bug problem. If not that, something.

The release date displayed on the official website has not changed yet. Unless it does change very soon, I woul dnot put too much stock in this report. QS has been very open about their delays. I wouldn't expect them to start hiding changes now.

I wouldn't doubt Rich Laporte, he has very good connections.

This a later post on gonegold's "front page".

"Master of Orion 3

Direct from Infogrames, the news for the "Official Release" date is still Q4/02...

Actually we still consider it to be Q4, 2002.

So I guess it's a "wait and see" sort of situation. Retail is stating Q1/03, while the publisher is sticking to Q4/02, for now. "

I usually don't post this kind of stuff but since the source was gone gold and is a sci-fi game, I thought I would.
