Max Payne 3 AND Bioshock 2 delayed amongst others :(

Awesome.
Maybe they'll delay them indefinitely and unf*ck themselves.
 
They both look bad.

Lock them up until they gestate into something that looks worth playing.
 
They just need to throw both games entirely out the window and start over from scratch tbh.
 
Oh well, I was looking forward to bioshock 2 at least even if I do agree bioshock didn't need a sequel.
 
I am just upset that this means my NECA Big Daddy figure will be delayed.



Personally I cannot see the interest in Bioshock 2 for anyone who truly appreciated the first, other than people who are into gimmicks.

I cringe every time my friend mentions, "Well I just want to play as a Big Daddy, that's why I am getting it"
 
i'm looking forward to bioshock 2 because it means more opportunity to explore the bioshock universe. i "truly" appreciated the first one, and that's why i like the chance for more. i don't see the hate for this game tbh.
 
Man, these delays are ridiculous. If you are not capable of getting a game out when you say you will, then maybe don't lead your customers and shareholders on by saying it will come out on a certain date. Its all just ****ing with the market and other people's money and that is essentially why we are all here in the first place. :angry:

Let's face it delaying 4 games at once? This isn't because of not finishing on time it's because of the cramped xmas period and very specifically COD 6.
 
What ever happened to Arkham Asylum, was that ever actually delayed?
 
at least valve don't have shareholders

yea till late august
 
This is why I like game companies that do the "It'll be done when it's done..." ala Blizzard.

It's another fine example of whats wrong with the gaming industry these days.

Either you churn out a gimmicky, overused concept of a game, or you make a gimmicky sequel with better graphics to a previous game.

Gamers eat up the pile of shit time and time again and wonder why their pockets are sore, their experience lacking, or why they end up exchanging games like Fear 2 at Game Stop for five dollars.

I think if it weren't for "hurrr, you git to play as big daddy" most people buying it wouldn't give a hoot. Everything they've shown looks awful. My opinion could change with more gameplay footage or reviews, but it seems very unlikely at this point.
Oh, hey, it's exactly like Bioshock 1, but the gameplay and story is worse, you get more powers and weapons, and your hand model is changed.

Valve have EA to report to and they have Shareholders.

Either way i don't care. I wasn't planning on getting Bioshock 2 i have zero interest in it and Max Payne 3 is not really interesting me either.
 
Valve doesnt "report" to anybody. The have a partnership with EA, and thats all.
 
if Valve are smart they will not delay left4dead 2, they have a golden opportunity with a lot AAA titles being pushed into 2010.
 
with all these games being delayed it makes Left4Dead2 look even better now. Also when is Starcraft 2 coming out??
 
Hopefully they scrap that hunk of shit MP3 and start fresh
 
Mafia 2 is gonna be epic, so I have no problem with that game being delayed if it needs to still be tweaked to perfection.

I know you can def*ck yourself, but what's involved in the process of unf*cking something?

(Note: They're going to sell bucketloads of these games when they come out anyway, so they're not going to lose out by delaying them. If anything, I'd be happier to have them delayed and developed properly so we can have better games rather than have them put out cash cows which disgrace their franchises.)
 
I have no interest in Die Hard 3, err...Max Payne 3.

I think Bioshock 2 still has promise. Here are my thoughts: 2K Games is just trying to reach out to the lowest common denominator/mass audience with their "you can play as a BIG DADDY/look a BIG SISTER" thing and will have more to show for the appreciators of Bioshock's deeper concepts when the game actually comes out. Maybe I'm just being too hopeful.

In the end it still won't be the CRPG evolution of System Shock that many of us were hoping the first one would be. Instead, they decided to focus their efforts on making it highly console friendly.
 
Why the long face? They both look irredeemably shit. Here's to hoping they never release.
 
They didnt even change the interface for a start.

Besides- a big daddy using a tape recorder. WTF indeed.

Circa 2000, Bioshock 2 would basically have been an expansion. A largely unrelated developer working on the above, coupled with the fact that 'you play as the first game's antagonist, but not really' has Opposing Force ratling its cane and telling us about the good old days.

Except, Opposing Force was better value for money, because it changed the colour of your HUD. That shit was Future.
 
yeah alot of games now are just expansions in all but the title like bioshock 2 and I've heard impressions of the same for L4D2 (don't flame me, I am not a L4D2 hater)
 
Bioshock was a mediocre game in my opinion. Not too hyped about the second game. Max Payne 3 on the other hand: DO want.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. Of course, I would still like to hear about when SC2 and D3 are coming out. :-) They are being delayed and there was never a release date announced!

And Bioshock 2 holds so little interest for me it is almost not worth mentioning. Everything I have seen about it just can't help but look/feel like more of the same.
