"I am in the UK and have had three very successful days here. Lots of traveling (planes, trains, taxis and by foot) but worth the effort. I'll send a full report later, but in short, two very good days of retail meet-and-greet customers in Birmingham at the Game Stations stores, and a super day today in London briefing the press and showing them the game in the Admiral Quarters of the HMS Belfast."
Many of you have been visiting our website often over the past several weeks noting the changing work items counter and talking with Gearbox developers on the Gearbox forums. Thank you for your attention. Myself and other Gearbox developers are likely to spend more time on the forums as our launch tasks wrap up, so stop by and say hi.
I would expect a wide press release soon that confirms the release to manufacturing of the gold master for each platform and the final shelf date of the game.
In the mean time, please look around the new Gearbox Software website.
And, thanks for your interest in Brothers in Arms ? the wait is almost over.
-Randy Pitchford, President, Gearbox Software
