Guild Wars 2 Release Date: August 31, 2009?!?
I know that ANet has not officially announced a release date for Guild Wars 2... (see their site here)...
BUT....
Look what I found on the NewEgg.com website today:
Guild Wars 2 PreOrder ($46.99): Release Date - August 31, 2009
Does NewEgg know something we don't?

Boy, this was probably the most deceiving thread title vs. content I've seen regarding GW2 in... ever.
I won't be penning my calendar until an official release from ANet. If we get it soon and it coincides, great. Until then...
/zzzzzzz

If you knew that you shouldn't have even posted. :P
We're all going to be sick and tired of "OMG, retailer X has pulled release date Y out of their backside!" threads by the time an actual release date comes around. There was already a thread on the newegg date as well. They're all meaningless guesses.

Nothing is offical until ANET says so. Those sites are just for reservations for the game in which you will pay but then when release date comes BAM!!!"sorry date has been pushed back" All it saying you pay for this you have your copy reserved when it comes in.

How could they release a game in August if they didn't even start working on it until a year ago? Online games take 3-5 years to create, not 1.

They announced it in early 2007, so they've been working on it for at least two years, and possibly for some time before the announcement was made.

do not trust a source that isn't the creator or developer of the game
obviously if Anet doesn't say it then it shouldn't be true

For an ever-so-slight part of a second, I believed it. How disappointing.

Lots of retailers put up guesses on release dates. It's nothing special or correct. Closed.
