To those who were eager to blow the crap out of a Venezuelan porta-potty with a surgical bomb this Holiday season -- sorry!
According to UK videogame Web site Total Video Games, Electronic Arts have confirmed that Mercenaries 2: World in Flames will miss the originally planned Holiday 2007 release. The PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and PlayStation 2 title is now slated to hit shelves next year; retailer GameStop currently lists the title for an April 2008 release.
There are a lot of reasons why we could be seeing a shift in the title's release date, the least of which is the already cluttered Holiday season (I think just Halo 3 should qualify as "cluttered"). Or maybe the game simply wasn't ready to ship. But Pandemic has been developing Mercenaries 2 with the PS3 as the game's lead SKU, so feel free to blame the Xbox 360 for the delay. That makes for a better story, right?
[Thanks, Justin!]

That a maybe a Bioshock play through. Thank goodness for exclusive titles I guess.
Although I was hoping to have new a game per month. At least September and November are covered. I'm hoping CC continues offering new games at $10 discount on the week they are released. With the Darkness and Bioshock I already saved $20. I doubt they'll do it with Halo though since its the one game you can pre-order. Maybe Mass Efect.
WWHWWHHHHHAHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
This is honestly what the term "sandboxing" makes me think of.
