GTAIV in March, so says Micro Center

According to a flier from computer retailer Micro Center, Grand Theft Auto IV will go on sale beginning "March 08." GameDaily speculates that this date refers to Saturday, March 8. Joystiq, on the other hand, assumes the "08" in question refers to the year 2008 (C.E.). Given that the only word on the release date from Rockstar and Take Two is that the game will release sometime during their second fiscal quarter (February - April), we're inclined to agree. Sure, it's possible, but it seems odd for GTAIV to forgo the traditional Tuesday release day (and it would put the game on US shelves a full month before the projected April release for the UK). In other words, don't hold your breath.

It's like a CompUSA, remove the management issues, but then take a whole barrel of filth and strew it around the store.
like if a dirty bodega and a CompUSA had a baby, that would equal Micro Center.

I really want the CE but will it be overstocked and drop in price 3 months later like the Halo3 Legendary was ?

I put my pre-order in at EB and they told me April 11
Grant @ Jan 15th 2008 7:26PM

The 90th anniversary of Finland forming an alliance with Germany during World War I is March 7, so this would be amazing.

Does no-one think the 08 is meant to be '08?
Why am I the only person to see that? Odd.
Grant @ Jan 15th 2008 7:27PM
we all assumed it.
No one thinks it's march 8th.
but no matter how you read it, it still means it's coming out in march of this year.
