Bioshock delayed, gets release date photo

OK y'all it's time for a little bit of bad news and good news, courtesy of CVG. First, the bad news: Bioshock is being delayed -- it was supposed to come out in June for the Xbox 360 and PC (not the PS3). Yes, yes, I know, it hurts me too.

Now, the good news: Bioshock has a solid release date of August 21 in North America and August 24 in the U.K.

There, see, that wasn't too bad was it? Good thing is, they set a date that is most likely a month or two before Halo 3 comes out. That's something you don't want to launch next to, which I'm sure Irrational Games and Microsoft are well aware of.

I'm... happy?

At least we know it's coming out. Unlike Starcraft: Ghost.

Damn you, Blizzard!

Good, a few extra months for me to catch up with all the other PC titles I need to finish.

This is a good thing.

I was agonizing literally an hour ago about how many dollars would be flying out of my wallet over May/June.

Pushing this to August not only means I save moeny for a bit, but that I won't have to neglect Shadowrun! ((Until Blue Dragon comes out, anyway))

LoL, I thought Kannon was actually rob, I'll have to read names now. I was wondering why Summa was talking against PS3. I'm expecting an annoucement like this to come out about Mass Effect soon, hopefully not pushed back till august though.

Damn... Of course as soon as I pre-order it, it gets delayed.

Hopefully Mass Effect will still make it around the end of May... although I'm equally skeptical, as they also haven't really specified a solid release date yet (to my knowledge).
