Then in the first quarter of 2009 we will be drenched in Obsidian-developed spy RPG Alpha Protocol; the gory black and white Wii game Madworld from Platinum Games (ex-Clover); Empire: Total War from Creative Assembly; and the Gearbox squad-based shooter Aliens: Colonial Marines.

The Sega site says Fall 2008.

Hopefully it is Fall. This is one of my most anticipated games of the year.

Its fall/winter 2008 they are aiming for but I wouldn't be suprised if it would end up being delayed till early/mid 2009;

Empire: Total War is in development at The Creative Assembly's Horsham studio in the UK and is priming its forces for a release in 2008. As soon as we can make an announcement regarding specific release dates we will do so. Stay tuned to www.Totalwar.com and www.sega-europe.com for the official word. All release dates announced via any other source should be taken as nothing more than speculation.

I thought the release dates were based on fiscal years. If thats right then the first quarter of 2009 starts October 08 and ends Dec 08.

This game is game is making me hard.....
However, they need to put some SERIOUS work into path-finding when dealing with large groups of units. If there's anything that pisses me off about the TW series is the absolute stupidity with which large groups of units move. If they can fix this, they've got a fucking magnificent game on their hands.

@Immunity: ya, that kinda sucks doesn't it. it was really hard moving large groups of formations in all TW games i played (all except Shogun Very Happy).

I've loved the Total War series ever since Shogun but I just can't seem to get excited about this one. While I would love naval battles I just don't like the time period it takes place in.

It's not really my cup of tea either.

I like the medieval period best..

But still, it's total war, I'll play it anyway :-)

Actually i do love MTW the most.

With the ability to assign titles and ranks to your generals it was real good.

Too bad, that they ruined that part in MTW 2.

Rome was great with its new graphics engine.

Thing is, i would love the gameplay of MTW 1 with the graphics of RTW Smile
