As the article states, take it with a grain of salt. My guess is it's not legit.

Whoa, January to March is loaded. I thought FFXIII-2, SFxT & Asuras Wrath were set to have a 2011 release though.

For some reason, I find that list bogus, but I guess it makes sense to see SFxT being released before April 2012, as they promised. But Asura's Wrath and Dragon's Dogma released on the same day? Wow...guess I have three games to worry about then on that month! But again, I just feel that list is bogus though.

Yeah they're tentative but they could be giving an idea of the time frame of when to expect said game. For all we know the companies themselves could've given Gamestop the time frame.

Yeah, but I can't see three Capcom games being released in a month when there's a lot of pormoting and marketing planned ahead for each one. That list is bogus to me.

I work at gamestop, when it says 01/01/12 or whatever, thats a holder date. There is no date for release, not even a MAYBE date. We just put a date next to it to show that it is coming out.

I learned that a while ago, it's not for sure, skyward sword is supposedly being released in June, but it may be next year before we see it.

Gamestop makes predictions as to possible release dates for their system to make entries. They don't know the official release dates.

This is probably for the purpose of their POS system to be able to sell pre-orders. Those kind of release dates lists have always been bogus.

This. Or, simply put, these are approximations. Nothing official.

01/01/12 is on a saturday, games usually release on a tuesday or thursday, my guess those are just guesses or they just put those dates as place holders

I'm surprised MGS Rising will take that long to be released. Haven't they already worked on it for like 3 years now?

I remember GameStop release dates telling me that LA Noire was to release August/September last year, and F3AR releasing October, and Deus Ex releasing in February... stuff gets pushed back, I wouldn't getting my hopes up off stuff like this
