kiwi Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I had a quick glance at PC Gamer (UK August issue) to see what they had to say about UFO:A .. and they will apparently have a demo of it in their next issue, which will be out towards the end of the month. I know this is after the Sept 12 release of the game, but this is just FYI for anyone out there who wants to try it out first before buying it ...

Slaughter Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Indeed Cenega informed us of this in the interview we made with them. I'll quote:UFOA.co.uk: When will a demo be available? Cenega (Brian): We have signed a deal with PC Gamer with regard to the demo - they should have a cover mounted playable demo of the game in their November issue - out in September.Anyway, thanks for mentioning it Kiwi! By the way, I think it's a long time since I saw you on these parts last. Welcome back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norway Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 First 1 month before the game. Then a few days after it had been in PCgames.And now even 1 month after tha geam hits the shelf. But i got a freind who buys no matter what , so i just borrow the game from him...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi Posted August 29, 2003 Author Share Posted August 29, 2003 cheers Slaughter - I don't get to spend much time on my fun 'n games these days due to work & family commitments, so it's nice to get a chance to check in on the UFO:A neighbourhood! I'm very excited about the imminent release of the game, I only hope it lives up to our expectations ... In the meantime, I'm making do with replays of XCOM 1,2 & 3 to keep me happy!

Bastiaan Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 12 September release? What is that, did I miss something while I was gone, because the UK release was 26 September right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi Posted August 29, 2003 Author Share Posted August 29, 2003 Amazon quote 12 Sept 2003 ... check it out https://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B...3994936-3303000 :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernel Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I beleve the release date is the 26th of September. But Game still have the release date as the 12th for some strange and unknown reason. I beleve the 12th was an old expected release date. Edit: And also Amazon it seams. (I'm a slow typer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Think 12th is wrong. 26th is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llama8 Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I thought PCGamer was due out on the 5th? I'm sure that's what it said when I checked the current issue last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Oh, that may be Llama8. Have no idea myself. I was talking about when the game comes out... Welcome to the boards by the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norway Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 The main thing is , we wont get a demo before after the game has been releasd...As i realy hoped for. End of story , even if we were told about a month before release... Not knowing is realy a blessing sometimes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Amen to that norway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samsmithnz Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I get the PC Gamer here in the US (its OK, seen better, but its by far better than others avialable here, what ever happened to the UK PC Zone???) But anyway, there is still no mention of the release of UFO in the US versions release list... which has releases right into October... Whats going on? No UFO fans at PC Gamer (Seems that 80% of their reviews are FPS's anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, I think it's a long time since I saw you on these parts last. Welcome back! Actually, I think that this quote is a misquote. They';ve always said the demo would be released at the same time as the game, and it seems strange that the november issue of pc gamer is coming out in September, even if the magazines are produced early, do you think he actually meant October???

Slaughter Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Yes, I think he meant October. He must have meant October, out in September. And this is for the UK version of PC Gamer, don't know about the US one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernel Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Well going on last year... the November issue may be out during the end of September or start of October. They release their christmas issue in mid December so the December issue has to come out around mid November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernel Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Just got my October issue of the UK PC Gamer this morning. November issue with a UFO:Aftermath review and demo will be out on October the 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legion Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 it will actually be out early october as i have just bought the october issue of DVD Gamer and thats still stating next month (november issue) available early october which means for those of us who have pre-ordered the game will be well underway before the demo is available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
