Yikes! [X(] Four Years!

I don't suppose this will come out in the fourth quarter of this year in time for the Christmas season? It would certainly make alot of marketing sense to do so, if they can have it ready in time.

It's more than a little frustrating. Is there even a ballpark estimate on when this might be out?

I joined the Matrix Forums for this game as well. I have since purchased eight other Matrix games while waiting for it.

Do you have any hard facts to base this optimism on? [&:]

I saw a demo of the game in June 2004 at Origins. They are just ironing out the bumps and tweaking it a little.
