EA Japan announced 10th anniversary in Japan today

OK I'll start the inevitable pixel crack cry.

WHAT ABOUT PRE_ORDERING ITEMS???? ROFL

**Ally** · 31st August 2007, 05:15 PM

Hehe yeah... What would be a good pre-order gift?

It's possible that EA might announce it here in the US today. Just guessing, but EA may have planned to announce on specific day... but Japan being one day ahead because of the International Date Line, appears to be announcing before here. Not saying this is the case... only a possibility.

And yes, they could coordinate time of day and for the GMT offsets for time zones so nobody is crushed & devastated by being left out of "such an important announcement"... but c'mon. They probably picked a day or weekend to get the info out around that date (this is Labor Day weekend in the US and peops would probably like to get to their holiday weekend without coordinating to the minute a game announcement).

Just a thought, a possibility, and my 2 pesos.

Did you guys see today's Five on Friday?

I think there's going to be a box, with goodies, but the virtue armour she mentions, will be free, so no box purchase necessary?

**Ally** · 31st August 2007, 05:43 PM

Ahhh.... that could be it. No box or codes for the stuff we're talking about HERE... No mention of the other stuff.

**Adam** · 31st August 2007, 06:11 PM

We won't be getting a box, btw.

By postal I mean write a letter, seal it up with a stamp, and run it to the post office. BUT THERE ARE NASTY WORDS IN IT!
