mid july or early july, even better, is fine with me. this will be the first summer where i'm working fulltime during the day then going to baseball at night. work from 8:30 till 4 or so depending on if i have a game. get home from an away game around 10:30 probably.

hopefully i'll get a full season in by the time i go to college.

well july 1 is a friday and big releases are always on tuesday (or monday in some cases) so it wouldn't be july 1st..

IGN has it on August 15th, my guess is that this is a misprint. They have Madden out on the August 6th. So I'd say July 10th-15th.

That is what I have been told, so I assume maybe it will ship on wed or thursday of that week, I was told by a Ebgames dude that he heard also July 1st, just what I heard, thats all!
