Hi everyone.
just to add my 2 cence to the debate about when the game is out, I just chatted with a Gameplay Sales Rep using their website's chat feature, looks like the game is out!

ian from Support is here!
ian : Hi Matthew Welcome to Gameplay Customer Service. How can I help you?
Matthew : Hi. I have pre-ordered fifa 2003 but wherever I look on the internet the release dates are different to gameplay's, the ea website says october 25th, would you possibly be able to tell me when it should get dispatched please?
ian : it's in stock to order now
Matthew : thankyou, i ordered yesterday, but my solo card didnt go through, but now the order has gone through, will it get dispatched today? and do they deliver on saturdays?
ian : if the order was placed today it will be posted today.
Matthew : thankyou very much for your help.

Is this for PC or PS2?

Damn I forgot to ask him that!
Give me a minute!

ian : Hi Matthew Welcome to Gameplay Customer Service. How can I help you?
Matthew : Hi. I recently asked about FIFA2003 and you said that it was in stock. Soryr but i forgot to ask if this is for the PCCD verison or not?
ian : that's out next friday
Matthew : ok thanks. so is it the ps2 in stock?
ian : yes
Matthew : thanks

well all i can say is if you have a ps2, then you are lucky!!! :(

EA released the ps2 version to coincide with the shipping of pes2. That's pretty poor. If they can release it for one platform, why can't they for all? :(

Thanks for going to all that trouble, mate.

Which version did you order 'blame it on durso'?

well the ea website still claims that it is out on the PCCD in october, so my efforts to find out from gameplay were pretty pointless really, o well!

Platform - Ship Date
PCCD - October
Xbox™ - November
PlayStation®2 - November
PlayStation® - November
Nintendo GameCube™ - November

i ordered it for the PC

Ehhmm... sorry, but fifa2003.ea.com says:

8 hours and 40 minutes remaining....

And don't say I fokked with my system date, cause I didn't... The site is counting down to 0:00 --> to october 25th

This is the site where you can download the demo... So I think this site is ment for the PCCD version....

1st of november doesn't seem to be right, when looking at the countdown, although everyone's saying it.... So I'm getting a little bit crazy by EA Sports....

Fifa 2003 for the PS2 is already released by a group so that one will be in stores for sure....
