Germany is Fed Up with Pre-Orders and No Release Date
 

Germany is digging into one of its most important issues facing it today; game pre-orders with no release dates. It will soon be law that "coming soon" is not good enough when you put your game up for pre-order in Germany. The Higher Regional Court of Munich has declared that being vague on release dates will no longer be tolerated as reported by the German website Eurogamer via Heise. The case was raised about smartphones, but it seems that more than a few products will be affected. Of course, now all you will have to do is lie about it to get listed again most likely. "When consumers order goods on the internet, providers must specify by when the goods are delivered," said Wolfgang Schuldzinski, CEO of Dusseldorf Consumer.
