SR are really annoying me by posting banners for loads of PC games which aren't out and have no release date for such as:

hitman 2
unreal 2
GTA 3

this is really irritating as everytime you see it you think "oh cool thats coming out soon it will be amazing" only to find out there is no release date. This is really irritating as these are going to be three of the best games of the year.

PS. don't even dare put a project igi 2 banner up if there are going to be problems with the release date (this could well kill me)

I'm sure GTA3 is out on PC...you could try sending SR threatening letters, though you will probably end up getting arrested.

Yep, GTA 3 was recently released on the PC.
But SR had some trouble getting the CORRECT release date, and I think that may be the case for the other 2 games, and maybe more. But I know that those 2 aren't out for a while yet.

So what? If they don't know, they don't know. They're alowed to advertise their products if they want. That's the point. Duh!

But there not their products are they? I mean if they don't have the item in stock or even a release date then its not really a product to sell is it? Duh!

But they will have the item in stock as soon as it gets released. Their just adding to the hype to increase initial sales.
