Tru Blu releases the PC version about 1-2 months after the console release.

I'm not sure why they're concerned about piracy elpirate. It's a compromise to get the game on steam though so just have to cop it

I don't think they do it to stop piracy, but rather to stop piracy significantly eating into console sales. Its annoying but I definitely understand why they do it.

You're probably right, sadly. I can't help but feel that this game would've been slated for release round 1 this year, but then the AFL forced them to include the AFLW players.

If the men's league had to wait almost 140 years for a video game to be made for them, then the women can, too.
Yeah, I can already tell that if this game sucks people will blame it on the inclusion of the Women's league...

:rolleyes:

Lacking polish with frustrating minor errors? Then, yes, that would be fair.

But if/when there are rather large issues with graphics, gameplay, functions etc, then I expect the pitchforks to surface en masse.

This will have to be a world record for least about of time between gameplay footage and release date. Legit starting to believe they just won't release the footage and our first look will be some amateur review putting it to the sword.

Really worried now :/

Anyone here work at a Target or EB? Apparantly some stores have stock already? Not sure if this is just someone trying to stir the pot on facebook or not. My local EB don't get the stock until Monday apparantly :(

Pre-ordered and paid off.

Got a price match from JB Hi Fi at EB Games, plus traded in 2 games (WWE 2k17 and NBA 2k17), and have a level 4 EB World card.

Ended up paying only $24.40. :thumbsu:

Can't see a company shipping a game over a week early then expect it not to be sold

Quick, someone pressure a 16 yr old at the Target counter!

Normally that might be right.
But Tru Blu did this with DBC 17
Release it a week early after distribution went smoother than expected. Although that was also an international release so hard to compare.

If it is true that stores have stock/or getting stock Monday, then chances of an early release or date break are slightly improved I reckon.
