            A-Freakin'-Men to that! It's multiplied even more when we sit and discuss it for weeks on weeks. Right now, whatever. Why even release a demo, lol. Just kidding about the last part. But I'll be glad when the games are released and all the threads about the demo release and whatnot are finally gone. Just some good ol' fashioned answeres to go with all of these questions.

                    That's what I was thinking. Isn't that kind of close to the release date. Five days before the game comes out. Cutting it a bit close.

                      I'm leaning this way as well.

                        I don't thjink you know what the term means in the videogame industry. It means something to those who want to know if the game will make it on time. "Going Gold" means the build is finished and ready to be produced and shipped to retailers.

                            No problem. I know it doesn't help that the terminology used is the same as the music industry, but mean completely different things.

                              If that means they were tweaking and tuning up until the last second... I'll take a close cal anyday .
