Although I'm undecided on getting it, but out of Star Fox 2: Assault, Gran Turismo 4, Pro Evolution Soccer 4 and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Star Fox 2: Assault is the best deal for me. But when does it come out? Nobody knows for sure and release dates vary between the end of January to sometime in the autumn. Does anyone know for sure?

When they announce it, probably. What I mean is, Ninty/Namco are pulling a Bungie here, by not actually giving us an EXACT date. Remember, rumours originally slated this for a JPN Jan '04 relese :D.
(I prefered the name Star Fox: Armada, but that's just me)

Yeah, I expect Japan will get it later in Febuary. When will we get it?

Well, probably just after the end of the Universe. Don't you just love NoE?

On Play.com, it says that it is going to be released here on the 28th of January.

Maybe NoE are doing the same thing as they did with Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

Or maybe it's wrong. Wouldn't be a first. I'm pretty sure it'll be in Japan first. But you never know... of course, can NoE really be trusted with handling a big game?

(February's got an r in it :D)

The Japs are getting it around Febish according to GameFAQ's, with us up as TBA. However, Amazon UK (Which is wildly innaccurate when it comes to this, may I add) has us down for March 25th.

That's a rather large gun.

'The Japs' is a racist statement if you call someone Japanese it :D (Stems from World War II). It's the same with calling a black African 'boy' (Stems from slavery).

And that's all I learned from Year 9 History, until I dropped it!

On topic (slightly): Do you think Halo has had a SLIGHT inspiration on some of the weapons? (Grenades look like a plasma grenade and 343 Gulty Spark's lovechild).
For a release date, I say wait for an announcement.

I hope we get this soonish. One of the reason I got a Cube was for Starfox and the first Cube Starfox game was some half-arsed Zelda clone with pretty graphics. Shame about the overall gameplay.

Considering I don't moan when people call me "limey" (Which I feel is just as bad), I honestly don't care. I don't mean malice behind it.

Oh, I didn't say you did. I know what you meant. Just attempting to be knowledgeable? Apparently I'm a 'Smartarse that's not very smart'.

Hehe, there was this one time on Phantasy Star Online (Dreamcast), and I was on Schthack... well let's just say people were using certain 'references' and bans were very nearly handed out.

I just ordered Star Fox 2: Assault, so if it comes out on the 28th, I get it on the 28th. If it doesn't, I'll just have to wait. Heck, I've waited for 2 years or so for Gran Turismo 4, I think I can wait a month and a bit for Star Fox 2: Assault.

Heh, same reason I got one too. The lastability of the game was pretty damn short. You would only play it once before you said, "F*ck this, I'm not going through all that boring crap again".

I've seen a few video clips from Nintendo's website and I took a gander at a few screenshots, this game looks seriously promising. But the only thing I'm looking forward to is the 2-4 player simulanious action. The only thing I'm hoping it doesn't have that crap idea where you have to beat a mission in single player before you can play with your friends.

At least I have an idea when Star Fox 2: Assault comes out. I don't know if it's been officially confirmed for then but Play.com have it now for April 1st. They wouldn't of changed it unless it was a definite release date I think.

The thing is now that I can wait for this. I can wait. Yep, I can wait... waiting and waiting. Gran Turismo 4 looks good... no, no, I CAN wait. :unsure:

Pfft, release dates change on sites all the time Ashley. We have still yet to have one confirmed from Nintendo.

True, but I stupidly trust Play for game release dates (which I really shouldn’t) and I don't see it changing. Heck Amazon haven't got the right name for it yet.
