Sept 19th is a Sunday and thats when Move comes out here in the US. anyone else think thats kind of strage? New game releases are almost ALWAYS on a Tuesday and sometimes rarely on a Friday.. Not that there is anything wrong with it, just seems a bit random to me to release something so big on a Sunday

Isn't that just a few days after Halo Reach? Maybe they moved it to avoid clashing with that.

No Reach is the 24th, a few days before reach. and nearly 2 months before kinect, seems smart to me.

They dont gotz the $$$ to hype it, like M$ is. I expect the MOVE to flop sales wise but it will be better than Wii and Kinect

It's the 14th I think. [QUOTE="mystervj"][QUOTE="Ravensmash"]Isn't that just a few days after Halo Reach? Maybe they moved it to avoid clashing with that.

Just a theory...but the majority of the gaming press is going to be centred around Reach that day - it wouldn't be good marketing wise.

non sense. Nearly all big PS3 exclusives go on to sell ATLEAST 2 million copies with little to no advertising.. LBP, Resistance, Infamous, Uncharted all had very limited to no advertising and sold excellent. Move will be no different. Sony thinks as it as a marthon not a sprint. Infact what MS needs to worry about is the abysmal sales of Alan Wake and the not so good sales of Forza 3. Especially Forza 3 considering Forza 2 sold in the millions and Forza 3 barely made it to 1.5 million if that.

That works out. They probably planned it around the schedule of the 6 people who are going to buy it. They could all go together after church or something maybe.
