We heard rumblings of this last week, but we didn't want to believe it was true -- Ubisoft has pushed the releases of Splinter Cell Conviction and Red Steel 2 into 2010.
In its First-Quarter 2009-10 Sales report, the publisher confirmed the delays, along with confirmation that the fourth fiscal quarter will see the release of a new Ghost Recon, as well as the mysterious I Am Alive.
In fact, the second quarter of fiscal 2009-10 sees very few Ubisoft releases. The publisher only plans to release Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles titles for Wii and PlayStation 2, the game tie-in for the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs film, Academy of Champions in territories outside of North America, as well as a handful of casual titles for Wii and Nintendo DS.
If you're into numbers, the full report can be read on Ubisoft's corporate Web site.

Microsoft now only has one real exclusive this holiday season, that's pretty nuts.
I also like how there are next to no more good (retail) Xbox games coming out for the rest of the year. WTF people. At least Live is bustling with awesome new content (still playing Monkey Island, Mothership next week, Splosion Man, Shadow Complex...).
Ah, got off track. Um....Fuck Ubisoft and all that.
"Do you want to play a game, honey? Look under your chair!"
Ah well. More room in the budget this fall for Way of the Samurai 3. That's coming out in October, ya know.
But I guess the good in this is breathing room for Holidays, cause god knows how much I'll spend if these games weren't delayed.
As fucking insane as that sounds, I would not be surprised one bit.
It's a beast that everyone's scared of, and that's amazing.
what do they expect consumers to buy in christmas?
Well other than Forza 3, Left 4 Dead 2, Uncharted 2, Halo ODST, Assasin's Creed and some shovelware
*cough* Way of the Samurai 3 *cough cough*
But I think we can safely conclude now, that 2010 is allready confirmed to be the greatest year in gaming so far!
These are just the games that I'm looking forward to:
- Alan Wake
- Bayonetta
- Bioshock 2
- Diablo III
- Final Fantasy XIII
- Gears of War 3 (?)
- God of War III
- Golden Sun DS
- Mass Effect 2
- Metroid: Other M
- No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle
- Sin & Punishment 2
- Splinter Cell: Conviction
- Super Mario Galaxy 2
- Team Behemoth's Game 3
- The Last Guardian (?)
- The Legend of Zelda Wii (?)
- + many others that I cant remember or haven't been announced yet.
