Backwards in time? I assume that's a typo, , but it looks as if you 
copy/pasted it.

I would guess that Bruno living in Europe uses the Eu date method

dd/mm/yyyy


not

mm/dd/yyyy

As those of the US persuasion oft do

I am actually kinda glad for this. There was a LOT of stuff to fix so maybe 
they are really addressing the issues. 

Agreed Mr G

They have their work cut out to make the new date.

Oh, I didn't know they did their dates like that. Makes a bit more sense
though, smallest->largest. I looked is as march/may and feared the 
worst. .  Thanks for the clarification

I agree, but then I don't believe the Amazon email either.  Maybe it
has something to do with the collectors edition?  Regardless,
everything I've seen still points to 11/19.  Everything except an
official announcement from Epic, that is.  <g>

On a pleasant day while strolling in 
alt.games.unreal.tournament, a person by the name of GTD 
exclaimed:

Yeap, and unfortunately this is one thing which is very 
ambigous to look at, many times one can't tell whether a 
date is US or otherwise :(
