Good move for Sony, I acctually believed that they would cram all those great games in to the first quarter of the year.

I guess this means I can get GoWIII AND GT5

They should have moved GoW3 back, not GT5. GT5 is the more important game.

You are right, GT5 is a more important game, which is why they are pushing it back. It will get wayyyy more sales this way. A september release sets GT5 up as a huge excluisve to essentialy kick off the holiday season.

I was afraid for all of these games getting released at the wrong time of the year, (like KIllzone did).

It is good to see Sony saving their biggest exclusive this generation until late September where it can ride Sony right into the holidays.

̶3̶R̶D̶ 2ND! Place has never been so sweet.

That's a good point. I guess I'm just pissed my most looked forward to game is getting "pushed back" in favor of a game I don't really care for (GOW3).

GT5 will have wicked sales if its Q4. If it launches in September I could see it having 4-5 million sales before years end.

Finally, GT5 release date is getting more and more fixed. I don't get this talk of "Pushed Back", the game had no release date on NA/EU so far, it was just people expectations.

A summer release would mean pratically all of my time conceaded to GT5, exclusevily, so to me, it's the best thing that they could have done :D
