Plants vs Zombies hitting XBLA on September 8 in UK

It’s been announced Plants vs Zombies will arrive on XBLA come September 8, which is a couple weeks earlier than the previous “fall” release announced last month – at least for the UK.
According to IGN, the US gets it on September 28, which is indeed fall.
It includes seven game modes, including two all-new multiplayer modes, 12 Achievements and 21 mini-games.
The game will run you 1200 MSP/$15.00/£10.20/€13.96.
We’ll confirm the US date with PopCap just to be sure.

BAHHHHH!
Is this all the surprise announcement was?! Sigh. Was seriously hoping for a sequel. Multiplayer could be alright I guess, but I’m not paying 1200 points for it when I already own it on PC. Sighmoan.

Can’t remember where but a site already had this down for the 8th after it was announced, and i can’t see any mention of the 28th here

@3 Look at the IGN link I posted in the article and look at the right column where it shows the publisher, format, etc. It clearly shows September 28 – US.

So is this the result of the event they advertised in San Fransisco?
Anti-climax.

@6 I bet they removed it and my cache is just showing different. Sigh. I sent a mail anyway. Hopefully I will have an answer by tomorrow.
