Mass Effect for August becomes doubtful

The biggest UK games retailer GAME have updated their listing for Mass Effect and have changed it to January 2008. They sent an email round to all those who have the game on pre-order letting everyone know the changes to the game that was expected in two months time. Are they out of their minds, or closer to the truth than we may think?

SF49er4086882d ago

spread the love around the year, make the game better. but yea give it to me now. game of the year 4 sure

ImWithStupid6882d ago

all those 360diots to shut their mouth when a game gets pushed back for the PS3, apparently the wonder box has more than it's share of development hurdles too.

OC_MurphysLaw6882d ago

First off...nothing has been confirmed. So I take this news with a grain of salt. And as for push back of a title...its not a rare thing to happen. The PS3 has seen more than its fair share of push backs which has many wondering..is it really difficult or is it due to the lower install base those titles (for now) have been taking the back seat in terms of development resources. I personally am thinking the later is the biggest culprit of delays these days for the PS3.

AngryTypingGuy6882d ago

Or maybe it's a huge game that's poised to be an AAA title, and they want it to be perfect for release. One of the things that developers love most about the 360 is that it is very similar to a PC and easy to develop for.

ZeroAlarm6882d ago

For God's sake, just give us (UK) the U.S. version - we speak the same language! I don't want to wait 2 months extra just because I'm from the same continent as some Frenchies who need the game translating for them!
Also, I hate the way the UK is tagged onto the EU. We're not even in the bloody European Union for gods sake!
Tally-ho and toodle-pipsy!

Why o why6882d ago

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

toxic-inferno173d ago

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Profchaos173d ago

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

jznrpg173d ago

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb173d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Rebel_Scum173d ago

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

Good games but no Phantasy Star?

merlox1068d ago

Why do people forget Phantasy Star? That is one of my favorite RPG series. Another ther good but overlooked series is ,Y's.

anast1068d ago

ES3 set things off, it's a shame they got greedy and decided to cut corners so the executives could get huge pay days.
