We previewed Mount & Blade earlier this month and since then we’ve been cautiously optimistic as the retail date gets closer. It was originally slated as ‘September,’ but Paradox Interactive have solidified its appearance for the 19^th of September. Based in a medieval age, the first / third person action / RPG lets players explore to their heart’s content. Developed by unknown Turkish developer, TaleWorlds Entertainment, the game has been been in ‘beta’ for a while. Europe is finally getting a concrete release on disk. Check out the newly published box art as well as the E32008 trailer below.

Shacknews has scooped some information from the producer on Spore, Thomas Vu (which in turn was sourced from CNet). He revealed that Spore is “roughly a week away from completion.” The game’s expected to go gold next week so that it’ll make its 7^th September release date on PC / Mac. John Riccitiello, the CEO on EA also raised the possibility of a Spore publishing label, something the Sims only has the honour of. He also mentioned the possibility of paid DLC and expansion packs, but reaffirmed that the launch is the top priority at the moment.
