Street Fighter II follow-up

Just got word that we can expect to see Street Fighter II on Xbox Live Arcade on Wednesday, August 2. That would also be the day I go from ultra-fast Comcast cable internet to molasses-slow 768k DSL.

Niiiice.

Nearly instant update:

I'm confused.

This announcement came in the form of a press release from Microsoft. The gist is that there will be a new XLA game every Wednesday for the rest of the summer. The list looks like this:
  • July 12 – Frogger
  • July 19 – Cloning Clyde
  • July 26 – Galaga
  • August 2 – Street Fighter II’ Hyper Fighting
  • August 9 – Pac-Man
But then you read a little further down and:
‘STREET FIGHTER^ II’ HYPER FIGHTING’ takes the best from retro gaming and combines it with the signature features of Xbox 360 and Xbox Live, creating the best ‘Street Fighter’ experience to date, on July 26.
Which is it? July 26 or August 2?
