Probably not the PC version but quite likely the console versions.

Well, there are so many mixed messages that I won't even bother going to the store here in Finland before I see someone that actually has it on the PC...

I'll go see it then. Hopefully it will be soon... That's all we have, hope! :mrgreen:

I'd be quite happy to be proven wrong about October 30th being the release date for the PC version but for now I'm inclined to believe that will be the case.

Andrew, do you know when live 08 pc be released in asia?Thanks.

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Mon Oct 01, 2007 8:57 pm

I don't have any specific dates, you'd be best off asking your local stores, but there's usually anything from a week to a month's delay for those of us outside the US and Canada.

Andrew, how do you think it is ture that we will have PC version in Europe few days time?

by **diddy** on Mon Oct 01, 2007 11:33 pm

Andrew, i'm talking bout PC ver., cuz i've asked mamager thriugh the phone call a few times - IS HE SURE BOUT VERSION, he replied - YES, I'M GIVIN' U INFO BOUT PC VERSION ONLY!

Well, if I'm wrong then I'm wrong but it just seems highly unlikely given that the PC version isn't slated for release until October 30th in North America. I guess we'll soon find out and if we don't have to wait until late October, so much the better.

Did You ask about PC version or other?

by **d-fish** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 7:04 am

It is, of course, POSSIBLE that the PC version may come out early, but it is extremely doubtful. I mean, honestly, EB Games (US) and EA are all still firmly stating that Oct. 30 is the day for PC. Like I said before, you'll know in a couple of days or tomorrow... depending on which day you want to believe...

PC version, 30th Oct for NA, 1st of November for Europe

All other versions.
US: October 2, 2007
Europe: October 5, 2007
Australia: October 4, 2007

I really think it is just a matter of websites not updating after the announcement of the PC delay.

But I wont complain if another country gets it this week

by **THE_FAST** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 11:32 am

how about in south east asia??? :?:

by **manlove** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 2:06 pm

by **diddy** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 3:29 pm

by **GP20** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 9:04 pm

so if u buy the downloadable version u can play it already since is october 2th? did anybody try?

by **Matt** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 9:29 pm

i went to Eb.....they have the boxes on the shelves under "coming soon" so im assuming the game is in stock and they are awaiting a release date which should be soon.

by **McDwyane** on Tue Oct 02, 2007 9:36 pm

I just contacted my most visited store,they said nba live 08 will come in our area maybe in the nov.20's or late nov's.I'm really getting excited.

thats what they had at both stores i went to, theyve had it as coming soon for about a week now, or more

by **shukcb04** on Wed Oct 03, 2007 2:36 am

be wary of the ea sports website. it says the game is available for download but you cant download it until the official pc release date of oct. 30

by **Matt** on Wed Oct 03, 2007 3:06 am

another site had a Oct 4th rel date for PC in Australia, so i'll check that out on Thurs as i'll be passing EB games.
