The US release date needs to be moved up 1 week it makes no sense at all for this

I am going to ignore all the attacks, and insults.

I will just say the release date does make a difference. I, and many other people like to buy games on the release date. There is just something extra special about going into a store on release day and buying a game. A large chunk of most games sales happen within the first week. So a lot of others gamers feel this way too.

All I am saying is that Birds of Prey would improve its chances to get my $50 if it released on the same day instead of a week behind Heroes Over Europe.

If they bumped up the release to tomorrow, then it would increase the chances of me buying it tomorrow 100%.



Again... They are two totally different styles of games.


If you can't wait a week for BoP, as you'd rather buy this other game, then so be it.


How did you like that Heroes Over Europe demo?

Do what you please,
To me it just seems you just go for the game that comes out first
Not even checking the games out.
Maybe BoP has alot more planes and such you would like over HoE.

and the story about release date doesent makes sence, BoP also had his release date so you could still walk in the store and pick the game up

But he can only buy one, and the best one is clearly that which comes out first.

It all comes down to whether you'd like to waste your $50 on Heroes over Europe: A game with limited choices on missions etc, or waste your $50 on BoP: A game with hundreds of choices to complete missions etc. Either way, your going to get the short end of the stick if you buy Heroes over Europe, just because it comes out a week before.

True but HOE gets first shot at my $50. Now if I dont buy HOE on release day then the chances of me getting BOP go way up.

Ok just for fun, tell me what you like better over BoP.

But you'd be ripping yourself off because HOE will not fly off the shelves, and people will probably just look it over. But BoP is more authentic and has a more realistic feel than anything HOE would have in it.

Oh well all I was hoping was this thread would bring attention to the publishers to bump the release of BOP a week because it is directly competing with HOE for my, and others games $50.

They already have a head start on the competition.


They have released a great demo, and word of mouth has been spreading all over about that.
