Is it just me or does it seem that delays are everywhere now. At the Begining of 07 I had a game pick out for every month for the first half of the year. Jan - Lp, feb - Crackdown, mar - two worlds, arp - army of two/AC/haze, may/june/july - mass effect, eternal sonata, kane & lynch and blue dragon. Two world is dropping may. I dont know where haze is. Now army of two, ac, kane n lynch are coming late 07. It gonna be a drought for a while for me.
Release dates are hard to pinpoint with software development. Most games are working on a 12-14 month development cycle and these are some complicated pieces of software, so delays for a few months is inevitable. I respect game developers who don't issue any sort of release date unless they are certain they can meet it..
When you guys see that a game got delayed I dont see a ton of people havinig a party. It doesnt promise a better game either. Something isnt going right when something is delayed and doesnt mean the devs can fix it. There comes a point when you have to make a finish product.
