A lot of people complain about delayed games, I for one am happy when a game is delayed. It means that they are putting more effort in to make it a good game.

Would super mario galaxy have been anywhere as good if it came out on the launch of the wii? would GTA4 be considered the greatest GTA if it had been launched on its original launch date? the answer would be no.

I mean how many classics have been delayed? I'm willing to bet a large proportion of them are.

And rushed games are very often bad. So many of them play terribly because they have not put that little extra attention to detail in the game.

I understand that games have production deadlines and surpassing the deadlines are costly. But when a game is delayed that instantly says to me that it has gone from mediocre to great and a great game will sell better in the end.

Whats your opinions on delayed games?

well ... when a game is delayed for europe only it is a bad thing

Thats usually because of translation problems. I think that if theyreleased an english only version in britain it would come out the same time as america

 Can the netherlands have the english only version then aswell? we don't need them other languages =P

A delayed game is eventually good. A bad game is bad forever.

its alright for games to be delayed. but when nearly all the games on a certain system ends up being delayed, then its not so great.

I suppose so, I always think that more people speak English in Holland than in Britain when I'm there.

John Romero and Daikatana agree with your post!

Delays can be a good or bad thing. Its not the delay that is important but the reason behind the delay.

I hope hazes' graphics improved signifcantly and the framerate has been worked out, also hope MGS4 gets bigger, and that KZ2 gets longer.
