Default Weekly release times?
Hey folks

Great to find a forum to follow the excellent vc-reviews site.

Just a quick Q...I know the UK release day is Friday but at what time are the the games normally released, is it closer to late Thursday evening, middle of the night or early Friday morning? I usually have a look before I head off to work and so far they're always there.

Anyway, just wondered out of interest

Cheers

Neil

lol @ Mendez - Don't know how you do it, I can't stay up that late any more on a 'school night'. I like to look before I go to work, encourages me to get out of bed on a Friday morning!

Cheers for the response neuzd

Hmm, wonder what will be there tomorrow, though after Lylat Wars I'll need to add some more points

I just can't get to sleep knowing the games would be out in about an hour or so >.<
I just have to pretend the morning never comes.
Seriously, I've been terrible lately, going to sleep in lessons and being unable to concentrate. Stuff like that.

It used to be VC LNT's (Late Night Thursdays) with an 11 PM launch. Now it's VC EMF's (Early Morning Fridays) because we're on BST (British Summer Time). As soon as we go back to REAL! time it'll be back to 11 PM.

Yep, I posted in the official EU 27th of April post, and Jonno somehow knew before everyone else. I say he's a witch ;P
