Tomb Raider Delayed

Originally being released sometime this fall, Tomb Raider will be pushed back to a later date which is sometime in 2013 Square Enix announced today.

Crystal Dynamic's head honcho released an explanation on why the rebooted Tomb Raider game has been delayed which is due to the fact that the developers want to give fans a great experience. As an apology for the inconvenience, a screenshot for the game has been released (pictured above).

When Crystal Dynamics first set out to reboot the Tomb Raider franchise, there were two goals that we were extremely passionate about. The first was to create a modern Tomb Raider game that would surprise and excite gamers.

The second was to make this the best game of our careers, something we would be really proud to be a part of. We truly believe that we have something very special on our hands and we can’t wait to share it with you.Our priority now is to make sure we fully deliver the very highest quality game. In order to do this, we have decided to move the game’s release date by a few months, from Fall 2012 to the first quarter of 2013.

We’re doing things that are completely new to Tomb Raider in this game and the additional development time will allow us to put the finishing touches into the game and polish it to a level that you deserve. We believe this is the right choice and I guarantee it will be worth the wait.

The game is looking amazing and we can’t wait to show it to everyone at E3 in a few weeks.

BioShock Infinite Delayed Until 2013

Fans everywhere were once happy to hear that BioShock Infinite would be coming out sometime this year but now BioShock fans are crying due to BioShock Infinite being pushed back to 2013.

Even though BioShock Infinite is going from a 2012 release date to a 2013 one, we now the exact release date for the game - February 26, 2013. A push backed release date isn't the only sad news for Ken Levine has announced that the game will not be shown at E3 or Gamescom this year.

Here is the following message from Levine:

A MESSAGE FROM KEN LEVINE

When we announced the release date of BioShock Infinite in March, we felt pretty good about the timing. 

Since then, we’ve come to realize that some specific tweaks and improvements will make Infinite into something even more extraordinary. Therefore, to give our talented team the time they need, we’ve decided to move the game’s release to February 26, 2013. We wanted to let our loyal (and very patient!) fans know this as soon as possible.

I won’t kid you: BioShock Infinite is a very big game, and we’re doing things that no one has ever done in a first-person shooter. We had a similar experience with the original BioShock, which was delayed several months as our original ship date drew near. Why? Because the Big Daddies weren’t the Big Daddies you’ve since come to know and love. Because Andrew Ryan’s golf club didn’t have exactly the right swing. Because Rapture needed one more coat of grimy Art Deco.

The same principle now applies to BioShock Infinite.

What does this mean for you? It means a bit more waiting, but more importantly, it means an even better BioShock Infinite. The great can be made greater, and we owe it to both ourselves and to you, our fans, to take this opportunity. Irrational Games is one of those rare developers lucky enough to ask the people who sign the checks: “Hey, can we have a few more of those checks?”

We are also going to hold off on showing BioShock Infinite at the big events of the summer, like E3 and Gamescom. That way, the next time you see our game, it will be essentially the product we intend to put in the box. Preparing for these events takes time away from development, time we’re going to use instead to get the best version of Infinite into your hands in February.

Bioshock Infinite Delayed to 2013

You might want to change your calendar today for Kevin Levine has announced that Bioshock infinite will not be coming out this year.

 I know Elizabeth, It makes me cry as well...

Instead of its expected October 16th release date, Irrational Games has pushed it further back to February 26, 2013. Levine explained the games delay in a letter to the public.

“We have come to realize that some specific tweaks and improvements will make Infinite into something even more extraordinary and that the delay will give the development team the time they need.”

Irrational is very well known for perfection as the first Bioshock had a big delay like this as well. In the mean time, you now have more time to play some DLC and some other future releases like Boderlands 2 before Infinite comes out.

Aliens: Colonial Marines Delayed

Sega announced today that they will be delaying Aliens: Colonial Marines.

Originally the game was to be released this spring, but Capcom is now saying that players will have to wait later this fall in order to get their own copy of the game.

“Aliens: Colonial Marines is a process of creativity and invention and those don't necessarily follow the structure of an assembly line," says SEGA and Gearbox Software.


"While setting clear goals, deadlines and predictions is helpful, they are often subjective. We don't want to sacrifice the creative process just for the sake of following a blue print. We prefer to have the creative discovery shape that blue print because our goal is to make a great game, and we are prioritizing this goal over the previously targeted date.”

New Twisted Metal Delayed

Much to my personal dismay, the long-awaited PS3 incarnation of the classic vehicular combat series has been delayed. Originally slated to come out Fall of this year, it has been pushed back several months to the beginning of 2012. As long as the game is good, I'm willing to wait. I just want to play as my favorite insane sociopaths again, blowing a hole in the planet with my car that somehow can still function with all those weapons on it. The creator, David Jaffe had this to say over on the Playstation Blog:

"Now, if we shipped Twisted Metal tomorrow – going off the response from folks who have played it – I assure you, it would never be a bad game. Not even close. But we’re aiming for a heck of a lot more than that! With Twisted Metal we plan to ship a multiplayer classic. We plan to ship the best Twisted Metal ever made. We plan to convert a lot of folks who think vehicle combat is a relic best left to 90′s nostalgia. And we plan to explode the belief that the only relevant kind of shooter is a first person one (or a 3rd person one, where you play a human… with a tee shirt not all the way tucked in …).

Most importantly, we plan on treating you – the kind folks who play our game (and pay our bills) – like the VIPs that you are. You only deserve our best and we appreciate your understanding as we take a little more time to guarantee that our best is what we deliver."

Jurassic Park Delayed

As everyone knows, the good games get delayed. And it's the same for Telltale Game's Jurassic Park. It's just been announced that they are going to release Jurassic Park this Fall as apposed to this month.

For all you disgruntled buyers, do not fret, because Telltale has offered something nice for the PC users who have preordered the game: a refund and a free game. Now that is rare for a company to do, makes me wish I preordered the game. But you get a complete refund and you get a free Telltale game of your choice.
