As is often the case in s/w development, I think June will come and go without BIG BROTHER on the shelves. I do believe that it will be almost done, if not completely done by that time, and with marketing and distribution procedures being what they are, I expect it to come out in the Fall.
In the interim, check out the MediaX website at: mediax.com which has some stills from the environments of the game.
