Ashes Cricket 2013 General Discussion

I agree with your point about not blaming Chief for the incompetent way in which 505 have handled the release; but I don't think you can say that Ross is the only person talking about a delay of the game. When you have a fair few reputable retailers either shifting their release dates or removing them entirely for three of the four versions of the game (the three that Ross probably had some inside information about); that moves it from a person slamming their competition to something that seems to actually be happening. But hey; if my copy of Ashes Cricket turns up next Thursday, then I'll eat my words. Bearing in mind the people selling me the game have moved the release a week back from the original date through; I think that I've got reason to doubt that!

Did you order a console version or the PC one?
 
Absolutely, Iceman... and nowhere did I say I didn't believe the rumours of a delay, but what O am saying is holding Chief accountable for it is really unfair. Based on his many months of vists here and question answering. Is it frustrating he's been less and less frequent here? Of course... But it's prolly because he's gota game to release ;)

I probably should have read your post a lot closer - I think I'm just a bit frustrated because Zavvi decided to take money out of my account for a game that they've delayed the release date for - could be a good sign though!

I'm just thinking; do you think it would be worth splitting all of this release date stuff into a different thread so its not cluttering up this one - it would make it easier for someone who is searching around the internet about why the game is delayed to actually find information on why without having to look at random threads. If you guys agree; I can work on a massive effortpost OP collecting all of the information that we know so far about any change in what has been announced. If not; I'll probably put a summary here just so people don't have to dig ten pages back though people bickering about Trickstar, Chief, BigAnt, E3, thw XBox One or whatever they think is causing this delay...
 
In less than 2 weeks any release date discussion is a non event... I don't think it's worth the continued discussion it's been getting let alone its own thread! I'm sure Dutch will take care of it if he thinks it's worthwhile...
 
Devils advocate of course, but the delay stuff has only come from Ross, who has a vested interest in that being true... .

Not true...even barmyarmy mentioned it around the same time as Ross....and surely he wouldn't have, had it not come from a reliable source.

Sorry, yes, you are right... I keep forgetting Barmy has two sources on this too.
 
what ac 13 team will do if we are stubborn enough(like them) not to buy this game, until they prove their worth by showing a trailer.

Too many casual fans will buy it for them to worry about that
