Thankfully, it will still hit this year.

That is what I thought.  Delays are usually a good thing in the long run, so no one should be overly upset.

 



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

With the lineup this autumn perhaps it would be better if it were delayed till next year. Then there would be a mega game to play in the spring besides Mario Kart Wii. As for the delay itself as Miyamoto-san would say a delayed game could be a good game, a released bad game will always be bad (or some such).

hum yeah I think they are trying to make the line up uniform... I would be surprised to see halo 3 being pushed.... or PGR..... or something to hove a big game a month apart all the time.... good thing for the wallet lol :) each game is hit the shelf around the end or begining of the month... right when people get their pay chacks lol

Depends on your perspective. As a gamer, I usually agree: if I were Microsoft, and Mass Effect had just been delayed beyond Christmas, I definitely would not agree.

Bioware has yet to make a bad game as far as I'm concerned, it should be worth the wait. It certainly looks the part!

PS: Does anyone know if Wizards of the Coast have licensed any new products in their lineup yet? A new BG or NN would be most welcome.

Damn you EA!!

We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
