I think you might be let down, from what they have released so far (quite little substance, and a lot of talk) looks to me like maybe Q4. One thing for sure is that info is starting to trickle a little faster than this time last year.
june 10, 2008 convert that directly to numbers and you get 6/10/2008 not that complicated.. why'd everyone else go screw around with something that makes more sense?

Eh june 10 2008 converts to 10/6/2008 if u live anywhere outside England , USA, or Australia meaning live in the majority of the world. Its the english metric system that is wierd.....
Personally I think it will be a Q3 release. Why? Well Age of Conan has got in there first by commiting to 20th May and it would be crazy for both games to come out at the same time. There's a big mob of MMO gamers that run around looking for the next big new thing and I'm sure both games are keen to get their share of them. So there needs to be some time between them or they're shooting themselves in the foot.

lineage 2 spring/early summer wow burning crusade january see, i can also give examples that don't prove anything. It will be out when its ready, but sometime during the summer seems reasonable.
What you are failing to comprehend are the given examples show two games which were both hyped up, and released within a month of each other. As anyone can guess, one of them is doing extremely well, while the other just getting by. The point to giving those two as examples is to prove that just because two games share a similar launch time with a similar style, as long as one is better made, the masses will move there.
Also, I'm not trying to say one is better than the other, just stating unbiased facts. I beta-tested and played EQ2 and WoW. I personally would have stayed with EQ2, except at launch they almost doubled the experience needed per level, and reduced all player damage by half. Considering I had just quit EQ because of the insane amounts of time it took to solo level (thanks to the fact the server was void of new characters), I switched over to WoW full time.
The unlucky part is I've quit WoW, and yet still trying to get into beta for AoC and WAR to compare the two. I go out and get a nice gaming computer, and then have to run the old games to help pass the time until I get something to really test it on. Although, I think I might go grab Crysis as a time sync, since I've already beaten CoD4 and Bioshock.

I agree here and I misunderstood your point. Hype is a funny thing. All games look so good on paper/promo videos, but playing them is different.

Because we can.
Because we can.
Correct.
And because we are inherently evil.
Just the way the British Empire (The Sun Never Sets on the British Empire! Rule Britannia, Britannia Rules the Waves!) was self-obsessed and evil.
Brits are jealous now because we are "out-empiring" them.
(Don't get me wrong, I love the British. Sincerely. But, across-the-pond teasing is what we do.
)

If this is the case then they are forcing me to buy AoC indirectly out of boredom...
It should be out before April... hopefully.
