This in a nutshell is where you win and lose console wars. There gets to be a perception(not reality) about lack of games, then people don't buy the system, then devlopers wait to realease games, then people wait longer. I think the PS3 has great potential and some great titles but so didthe Saturn. And no matter how angry many of you are Konami, I refuse to lay Sony's problems at their feet. They may be a savior for the PS3 but they are not doing anything mroe than exposing the problems already there.
While I do think this will arrive on the PS3 I don't think we will see it until about a year from now. The one thing we wont see is any more Metal Gear on the PS3. The next one will jump ship or they will wait until the next generation.
It's funny how excited everyone has been for next quarter. Don't they realize that when a company says delayed to Q1 '08 they mean TBA '08. Look at Nintendo. Metroid was supposed to be Q1 '07 after being delayed from launch ended up Q3-4 '07. Smash went from Q2 '07 to Q1 '08. And as much as I love Mario Kart I don't think we will see that until November next year.
Final* Word on Game Delays:
The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.
Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.
Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.
