During Electronic Arts' Q1 fiscal earnings call, the publisher announced it has delayed Crysis 2 until early next year.

The game will now ship during EA's fiscal fourth quarter, which begins on January 1, 2011.

"We moved to the game to a better marketing window in the March quarter," Jeff Brown, VP of Corporate Communications told IGN. "This will also give the Crytek team more time to polish a great title."

Crysis 2 was originally scheduled to ship during this fall for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.

A wise decision.

Games are always delayed thats why i don't care for release dates anymore.

NNOOOOOOOO!

Oh well... Next year it is then...

A very wise decision...

Wouldn't have looked good for it being released close to both Halo AND Call of Duty.

Oh how am i going to cope without the almighty crysis 2. the first installment was

Fun

Alive

had pure replay value

a good online community

Good AI

Oh the game that had those graphics and the explosions and stuff?

Halo Reach , MoH and Black Ops... Crysis 2 would have born dead. Glad they delayed it.

I guess they figured releasing it anywhere near to Halo Reach and to a lesser extent Black ops would be pure suicide.

Poor Two Worlds 2....

Makes me happy. I can play it after Halo:REACH, CoD: Black Ops, and Medal of honor. Otherwise I probably would have got it used.

They didn't know this at E3 or, I don't know, last year when Halo: Reach was announced? May be a smart move, but it's pretty dumb that it took EA this long to recognize this.
