I dont think anyone is going to believe any release date that anyone announces until we actually see a cashier selling someone the game lol.

I used to work for theses guys in Canada..in order to be able to take pre-orders they need a date...Jan 1 keeps it in a findable area for easy sku access on the computers.

I don't know what eb games are like in other countries but in Australia if you preorder a game and it's late you get 30 bucks off, considering preorders for gran truism 5 would be enormous,putting the latest day you could would save them from losing a lot of money,although the current form of the release date,I'd be nervous putting Jan 1st 2011

As others have said, placeholder.

No biggie though, so many games coming out anyhow. Not like it wont stop spinning on the PS3, of course in between sessions of The Show

i'd be shocked if they miss the holiday market (release prior to christmas). that being said, they have delayed this thing time and again, so...

Crap, I was hoping for this to be a Christmas gift considering LBP2 was already delayed till next year.

Where did you hear this?

According to Amazon:
Arcade Mode - Allows for single race functionality and 2-player battle.

Just like the past games, unless you have proof of a developer stating against this.
