so what's the deal. what is the reason for the Jun 12th delay? I don't make games so I don't know how it works but it seems like a common theme: developers seem to constantly abandon schedules/deadlines.

Why is there no explanation for this? Cause the demo sucked?

whatevs.. other good games to be played

Hate to talk to myself but, Kittridge: There may be answers to your questions at this point in time.

1) The game has arrived, it is awesome, except for glitches that remain. It is likely that this game was full of bugs, and the testers didn't put much effort in.. maybe not. But it is buggy, even after the delay.

2) More telling are recent events involving Epic and Silicon Knights (a UE3-utilizing developer) that may lead to the conclusion that Epic bit off more than they could chew, between providing the engine to dozens of developers while simultaneously developing graphics whore approved games of its own, Epic may have been unable to give proper attention and support to those devs who licensed the engine, Artificial Studios included. This may have been a factor in the delays.

In the coming weeks/months, we may see more devs follow suit and cry injustice against Epic. They may have good reason.

 about me

OMGjuts HOW sik is yu kitZOrz??!?
M4dd H4rdcOrE firealz!!11

srsly u guys:L
I grew up on nintendo (NES, SNES, N64, GC) from the age of 2 in 1987, also owned a sega genesis w/ sega cd attachment, playstation 1 and 2. Also played PC games. I had stopped playing games for a few years.. kids do stupid things, you know. But then, a buddy introduced me to halo 2 (yes, I played Halo 2 before playing Halo 1, don't hate.) and well, I've never been the same. I've probably logged 720hrs < Halo 2 hours < 1440hrs. Maybe more. It was kind of an addiction. I went from what David Houghton would call a "Closet Gamer to a.. well, xbox's equivalent of a WoW fiend. Maybe some of you can understand.

Fortunately (or not), the 360 brought me a variety of new games to get addicted to. 200+ hrs on Oblivion, 100+ hrs on Saints Row, numerous other games. Crackdown, Gears (not so much because I think multiplayer is broken) and Monster Madness - a highly underrated game. Also, I'm a beast when it comes to Geometry Wars or Lumines Live. There's better, but I can compete.

In early July, my 360 broke - that's two (2) RRoD and one (1) persistent "unplayable disc" - and since then, I haven't played a single game. You could say I'm pretty fed up with Microsoft right now. But, the games are just too good to pass up. I'll stick with them until they get it right. Bastards. They're damn lucky they own Bungie.


I've diverted my attention to other ventures...

It's been pretty rough. Let's just say, I've spent a lot more time here, discussing games, to try to stave off withdrawal. Yes. I have a problem. Don't judge.

While I've been here more often, I see that there's all kinds of turmoil erupting throughout the internets; I aspire to bring an end to this.

also, cocks? duzn;t make sence u guyz but oK
