The press release also included a quote from Double Fine mastermind Tim Schafer, and we would be remiss not to pass that along to you.
"Wooo! Having an official release date is awesome!” said Tim Schafer, President of Double Fine Productions. “And how cool is it that EA threw down the dough to have the name of an entire month changed to Rocktober?"
The fevered development leading up to that release date may be somewhat less awesome, but based on the way the game is looking so far, I'm hopeful all that toil will be worth it.
