I find it funny that people still read and listen to release dates posted by any site other than the main publishers. Like when Amazon lists games as being released on the 1st of January as just a placeholder.

What day do games come out in the US? Is it a Tuesday or something? Games are always released on a Friday in the UK (unless a really special occasion like World of Warcraft), so if the date is anything other than a Friday, then I wouldn't ever take the date seriously.

Should be a general rule of thumb for everybody.

 

June 9th is a Tuesday, and in the US it isn't nearly as strict as in the UK. Games typically release on Tuesday, but it isn't uncommon to see games released on Monday or Wednesday. On some special occasions games release on Sunday (MKWii was the last one I remember being on a Sunday)

However, I still haven't seen a press release stating anything other than being available in the spring, which June is in the summer.

These marketing people speak in Quarterly terms, though. To them, Spring is April, May, or June, while the popular vision of summer includes June, and according to the sun June straddles both Spring and Summer (though June 9th would be spring in the solar interpretation of it)
