Just keep in mind that their site also said September 30th, early October and was just "Q3 2009" originally.

I don't like it when they keep pushing back a game bit by bit, i wouldn't mind if they just said "No chance of it being released before X". Then i can not worry until X comes along.
But when it changes every week or so we have to constantly check, and with most sites giving different dates it's just easier to ignore the game completely until someone says "oh by the way, it's officially released"
/rant

But anyway, it's out in Russia already, or so i'm told. That's usually a good sign it'll be released elsewhere soon.

wow, there are a few folks on this forum...thanks guys...

also, has anyone in the US pre-ordered the game on DVD/CD? i haven't seen it on amazon yet. when do games usually show up at places like amazon, anyone know? 1, 2 weeks before release date? month? i guess i'm asking if amazon is going to sell it should they already have it listed for pre-order? thanks...

I was a bit late to the MoW launch party, so i don't even know if they had a pre-order available for the original. Though i'd say you should be able to purchase it online,at metaboli for example, as soon as it's officially released.
Shouldn't take too long to get to local stores or places such as Amazon either. (for a boxed game rather than downloading it)

I doubt they would make anyone wait weeks or months to buy it with other methods. It might not be as widely known as some other RTS titles, but those of us that do know it are very eagerly waiting to play it.
