Actually that's exactly the right news.
The hands on videos and reviews will be up on Monday which would definitely tie in with a release on Thursday.
The reviews would need to be fresh in people's minds to maximise exposure for release day.
Definitely betting on the 10th now.
Thanks for that piece of info.

I have noticed that, and obviously they can do the same thing here.

My question is why bother hyping up an ios game anyway? Just release it when it is done and if it is a good game people will buy it. look at call of duty zombies on the ios. It was randomly released one day and it sold great. Sure it had the call of duty name backing it up but not many people follow up on ios game news and those who do would likely buy it without the hype anyways. N.O.V.A 3 will come out, get game of the week and be on the top 25 chart for three or so days whether or not it is hyped up.

Why bother hyping up Christmas? It'll come, you'll give/get presents, and before you know it, it's the new year.

I absolutely don't see the reasoning, in the context of a thread meant to hype a game, behind your question. Not trying to be rude. But c'mon.

Well no it's just that if the game is already made I don't see the point in not releasing it as soon as possible.

Oh, you're just impatient. LOL. Join the club, my friend. I cannot wait.

Why does the AI still look so dumb?

because they don't have convenient waist-high "cover" areas all over the place. go play Mass Effect - great game, no "cover," stupid AI
