It affects me. I planned and received two days off on the previous release date a month ago. Now, I have to reschedule it again. A bit annoying but hopefully this is the last time the release date gets push back.

If you're into platformers, buy yourself a copy of Ratchet & Clank on the PS4.

PeaSFor3731d ago

at this point i dont care about the small delay, ND will release the game they want in the state they want and i respect them for doing that, i preordered the game a long time ago and will wait patiently until the release date(...and to be honest its kinda accommodating since it will give me more time with DarkSouls 3 and Ratchet&Clank in april.)

Genuine-User3731d ago

@Peasfor

I agree. The game is nearly finished and it will go GOLD later this month according to Naughty Dog.

We've got plenty of stuff to play until early May.

Aloy-Boyfriend3731d ago

You requested days off that early to play a video game? Lol

FullmetalRoyale3731d ago

Well that wasn't very friendly. I've done it in the past, particularly when I had anticipated an eclectic work schedule. No need to be rude just because you get to be anonymous. 😘

rainslacker3730d ago

I take off every year for E3 and a couple times when blizzard launched an expansion for WOW. If you have the kind of job that allows for such things, why not take some time to do the things you enjoy if you can manage it?

Aloy-Boyfriend3730d ago

I've done that plenty of times, but usually a week before or two, not months before release.

Poli_Games3730d ago

I make my Schedule so that I'm off on tuesdays, so that i have a whole day with my game! :D

ShadowKnight3731d ago

It's cool. I'll be playing Zelda, Dark Souls 3, R&C, and QB! Take your time Naughty Dog.

Ezz20133731d ago (Edited 3731d ago )

yeah
Two weeks are not big deal
and that will give me time for R&C and Dark Souls 3.

Poli_Games3731d ago

Oh man I'll be playing a ton of DarkSouls and Ratchet and Clank! I'm also very excited for the Ratchet and Clank Movie.... I'm a child :3

SniperControl3731d ago

No worries here, R&C will tide me over till May and my backlog is horrendous, i still have RoTTR to start as well.

Gutted, but unfortunately, QB will also have to wait till MS sort out the windows universal app restrictions.

jon_snow3731d ago

Well this delay is not ND fault but manufacturing and shipping. Demand must be really high for U4. with close to 40 million ps4 owners i expect this to be highest selling Exclusive when released.

Gazondaily3731d ago

Delaying a game because of not enough cd's being made on time? Hmmm...

Aloy-Boyfriend3731d ago (Edited 3731d ago )

Wouldn't that be a good cause? Where I live (Lawrence,MA) Uncharted 3 got sold out. U4 is even more anticipated. It could happen. Glad it is not by months at least.

TFJWM3731d ago

What is worse for ND, delaying the game two weeks or if you didnt pre-order the game than you can't buy it in stores. And what does ND gain by lying about it...

The 10th Rider3730d ago

Ummm, it's worse for naughty Dog to hold off on the game so it doesn't sell out. Selling out is good for a product. Look, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the game or anything, and I'm sure it will sell well, but the idea that it's delayed because they're worried it'll sell out is absolutely ludicrous. It was probably just some production delay, something during production of the game simply didn't go as planned. This late in the game, it's doubtful the release date is really in Naughty Dog's hands.

Corpser3731d ago

That's not saying much, the best selling ps4 exclusive is (not counting remasters) infamous SS? U4 just need to sell 3 million to beat it

Aloy-Boyfriend3731d ago

Infamous SS wasn't as anticipated as this one. That is lifetime sales, not first week or day one sales

The 10th Rider3731d ago (Edited 3731d ago )

Meh, I doubt it's due to unexpectedly high sales. They'd just release it at it's original time frame and produce more as possible. If it was anything production related it would be due to production or shipping problem.

MattE3731d ago (Edited 3731d ago )

Why delay millions of people enjoying a game because some haven't been quick enough to pre order.. If u haven't pre ordered early enough then u obviously aren't that invested in the franchise. I call BS but Sony fans just believe anything that's fed to them.

TFJWM3731d ago

What does ND gain by lying about it, people will whine about the delay regardless of what they say...

Aloy-Boyfriend3730d ago

Excuse me? So you are saying everyone that wants to play this must pre order to get it on time? That's even more stupid.

The 10th Rider3730d ago

@XiKurapikaKurta,

So wait, you're saying if someone pre-orders it, but a ton of other people buy it, the people that pre-order it have to wait?

I can't say I've ever seen an example of a project getting delayed because the estimated sales eclipse their original planned production run. Every time, the company simply launches the product and it sells out. No one gains anything by delaying a release so something doesn't sell out right away.

MattE3730d ago

@XiKurapikaKurta

Well it isnt out yet so the main way for ND and Sony to work out if they can meet demand is from Pre orders right?

What's the difference between this game and any other. They are talking BS, just accept it kid

jokerisalive3731d ago

Not a big deal cuz I will have more time with Ratchet n Clank. Two weeks is not a major delay anyway. Still say U4 will wipe the floor with GOTY awards so this petty delay is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

Gaming4Life19813731d ago (Edited 3731d ago )

It's only a 2 week delay lol, that's nothing. But that can't be right that it was delayed for manufacturing reasons. I bought mine from psn so I should get mine early lol. Seriously though I can't wait to play this, definitely a huge game for ps.

I am kinda thinking of trying out ratchet and clank but I'm not sure if I will like it, bring demos back. I think ratchet and clank is the real reason uncharted was delayed, weren't they releasing on the same day.

LordMaim3731d ago

If that were the consideration, they'd have moved Ratchet and Clank rather than Uncharted 4. I think the real reason was the one they gave, and it's a logistical issue resulting from them revising their forecast upwards for a game that is shaping up to be a massive success.

Gaming4Life19813731d ago

Well I guess they could've pushed ratchet and clank up for an earlier release.

rainslacker3730d ago

I'm sure they want to release R&C at the same time as the movie.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

dveio20d ago

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing20d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9220d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit20d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing20d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9220d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
