Of course! I didn't say it was a sane, solid hope! I said it was flimsy. I preordered from somewhere else :) But deep down inside I harbour that ember of a hope that I will drop into Gamestop on the way home, and there, on the shelf beckoning me with be HEARTS OF IRON!! :) I usually wake up at this point, and continuing readin 'The Road to Stalingrad' by Erickson. :)

Cheers,

Dr. Charm

I've consigned myself to the fact that it's not going to happen. My EBGames order is still listed, status-wise, as 'waiting on product', so it's prodigious playing of EU2 AoN and regular scouring of the HoI bboards until next week. :(

Why are we so full of hope that the game will appear in stores today...

... yet when it crashes to desktop we do not hope for a moment that the game is gonna magically restore itself if we just sit there and not touch the keyboard for a bit? :D

When the people manufacturing the game announce a certain date, hoping for an earlier date is not, well...

I too still have some vain hope for getting the game this week in UK. Strategy Plus software still think they will receive it this week although they still haven't had confirmation from their supplier yet (which I'm pretty sure is the US version).

Yozhik is right...
It's a marketing tactic...
I have a pre-order with Gamestop for HoI. I have not gotten an email yet, nor do I expect to. In fact, on several occasions, I have already received the game and have been playing it before the email showed up telling me my order has been shipped :)

I too am anxious for this game. I guess I'll have more time to read Guderian's "Panzer Leader"...
