So it all started in October, 3 days before the game was to be released at EB Games. I had my copy reserved... pre-bought actualy. A friend IM's me on AIM and informs me that he checked EB's webpage, and the game is pushed back. I look, and sure enough... pushed back to my birthday... Oct 22nd. This is surprising to me because I've never known a game to be pushed back... 3 days within it's release date. Especialy sence the game is already out on the PS2 and the XBOX. This is just the start though...
So I wait untill the 21st and call to see when they'll get it in the next morning. They inform me that the game has been pushed back again till mid November. I send a email to Acclaim and ask them what the deal is, and I get no responce. I think about deciding to not even get the game when it's finaly... if ever.. .released. I called a bunch of different places around this time and got many different answers as to what the release date is. Nov 4th... Nov 17th....
So yesterday, the 3rd.. I decide to go to EB's webpage again and see if there is a new release date... and the game is gone. Not on the release date scedual at all. I do a search for the game and it shows the PS2 and XBOX versions... but no GameCube version. I do some searching and find a number and call EB's worldwide headquarters... and they confirm that it isn't even in their computer system anymore. I do some more searching and call Acclaim's headquarters.. and all they can tell me is that they don't have a release date for the game.
So this is where I am, with absolutely no information as to what has happened or will happen to this game. Has it been cancled for the cube? Are they just tweaking it to improve on the framerate problems that the other 2 console versions had? I dont' have answers. I know it's to be the last Acclaim game to be made for the GameCube. I've always loved the XG series and I own every game except for XGRA. I was thinking that maybe someone here might know, or know of a way to find out the status on this game.
