Lots of games that are a year or more down the line will have a date like the 1st or the 31st because they just want a sku in the system that let's people reserve, which can't be done if it doesn't have a release date...

For the longest time Diablo 3's release date in their system was listed as 1/1/12.
totally understandable but don't you think they should set it to 2012 then and not 3 days from now? People will actually think the games coming out since its in the coming soon section.
