Not really game gold go a 2/3 weeks before they hit retail.

Going Gold means production has started.

No, thats Platinum and is a sales number although I dont think its used much anymore.
Like said going gold is when they finalize the release version of the game which is then sent to be written on the disks for mass distribution. Often the gold version of the game is finalised a mon th or so before official release in order for them to write, box and ships all the copies to retailers. Now though often though there are 0 day patches and access to betas so its become more or less irrelevant.

Why we havent seen more game content/videos is absurd.

I dunno

Maybe the whole team is rushed off their feet getting the game ready to go gold?
