What time is Flight being released on the 29th?

Should I take a vacation day on the 29th or March 1st?

Sure, take the day off & stay at home at your PC. It will be downloadable & not sold off the shelf.

Better idea:
phone work and tell them you are sick ! and back to work on monday ! - that will give four full days and four nights of Flight extravaganza !!

Both, and go to Hawaii for real!

Taking the day off because of a game? Now I have seen everything.

I don't see the point seeing that you can download it whenever you want.

This isn't exactly a new concept. People have been doing this for years for other games, gadgets, movies (Star Wars comes to mind ;) ), concert tickets etc.

Madden Football

Gears of War

Halo

Any of those ring a bell? Grown adults took the day off when those were/are released. I know people who took the day off when FS 2004 was released.

Better yet , use a sick day. Myself, i can wait a week at least, how much better if at all could it be than FSX with ORBX and OZX installed

[nevern]

I have never done it. Maybe I have not lived until...

Why not? February 29th isn't a real day anyhow! (Some sort of government plot, I suspect) ;) — Bob

BTW, I own the company. I don't need any excuses. No one has answered the question. Will it be the 29th or will it be released at midnight, and March 1st would be the right day. Sorry. I'm like a kid when it comes to these things.

MS hasn't said the exact time that Flight will be able to be downloaded. All we know is the 29th. So plan your vacation day for then.

Is any game worth lying for and risking losing your job?

He owns the company. What is he going to do, fire himself? Or maybe there is some US law that prohibits this?

He was advising others to lie. My point still stands.

I'm taking the week off. Oh WTH, March...Don

[loki]

I like that idea Don! I'm going to advise everyone I know to follow along! :)

[JSkorna]

I predict a huge upward spike in the unemployment rate.

[loki]

Now Jim, would that be considered a success for Flight, or a failure? A success because people are excited enough to lose their jobs over it, or a failure because they no longer have any money to spend on DLC...

[stanp]

MGH,
Where did I advise others to lie? I said I would use a "vacation" day. I'm not lying about that, nor am I asking anyone else to lie. I hardly ever take vacation, so I think I might take 2 days off.
OK?

I never said you did. Read the thread!
