GP2 - Confirmed Release Date

10 posts by 10 people · 06 Jul 1996 - 25 Jul 1996

Hi Everyone, A quick "press release" from Sim Racing News. It goes a bit like thise.... "Oooooooooooh I'm all e***d" (good so far eh?!) :) In an effort to give everyone some reassurance of a delivery schedule (and to give my e-mail some respite from the many requests of "When's GP2 coming?!?!?!?"), I checked with the development team directly about the delivery schedule. I confirmed with them that as of this moment, the game is scheduled to master _this_weekend_ and _WILL_ be released for the British Grand Prix next weekend. No consipracy theories, no plans to delay until Christmas (thank God!!) and no fears of bankruptcy. Of course anything is possible, and it hasn't actually mastered yet so a delay is not inconceivable. It's 99% sure for next wekekend, and I'll let you know early next week when I have confirmed it's mastered, and sitting in boxes waiting to be sent out to everyone. Cheers all!

:Hi Everyone, : :A quick "press release" from Sim Racing News. It goes a bit like :thise.... : :"Oooooooooooh I'm all e***d" (good so far eh?!) :) : :In an effort to give everyone some reassurance of a delivery schedule :(and to give my e-mail some respite from the many requests of "When's :GP2 coming?!?!?!?"), I checked with the development team directly about :the delivery schedule. : :I confirmed with them that as of this moment, the game is scheduled to :master _this_weekend_ and _WILL_ be released for the British Grand Prix John, you mean they're starting the mastering Saturday or Sunday - seems a bit odd... Also, I'm confused, because I saw Marc Nelson (SRN US for anyone who doesn't know him) claiming it had already gone gold... :next weekend. No consipracy theories, no plans to delay until Christmas :(thank God!!) and no fears of bankruptcy. *** seem to have gone for the 17th as the date - we'll just have to wait and see. The best thing about it being released is that at least they'll be an end to all this pointless speculation - and I include my message in this category! : :Of course anything is possible, and it hasn't actually mastered yet so a :delay is not inconceivable. It's 99% sure for next wekekend, and I'll :let you know early next week when I have confirmed it's mastered, and :sitting in boxes waiting to be sent out to everyone. : :Cheers all! :John Here's hoping...

yep...sure hope Ure right...but the only problem is that missing 1 percent and what if... ...in my book there is some 50 % change for that missing 1 % chance to happen...:-) ...but like I said I do hope Im wrong...and Ure right...Im sick for waiting the game...I just expect nothing...and then Ill be l pleasantly surprised when its out...its far more easier way to go. great site there John...keep it up!

So you're saying it will be released on the Friday before the weekend or the Monday after? -- Voice: +44 (0)113 297 9797 Fax: +44 (0)113 297 9798 Snail: BJSS, Capitol House, Bond Court Leeds, LS1 5SS, England
