Delayed: BioShock 2, Heavy Rain and More

Update: Add Mafia II, Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne III to the list of delayed games for TakeTwo.

It seems like publishers and developers like to start the week off with disappointing news.

Such as game delays.

TakeTwo’s BioShock 2 was pushed to 2010 which starts November 2009, but don’t expect it this year. It’s definitely a 2010 title. And here’s why:

“.. it was essential to invest the additional time to ensure that this title will deliver what its fans expect and deserve.”

Unlike BioShock 2, Sony’s Heavy Rain was delayed until 2010 for strategic purposes.

“Most publishers today realise that it’s not ideal to release a new IP or a new genre just before Christmas. It’s a very crowded place to be, and certain games need more space to live their life.”

The last piece of game delay news involves StarCraft II. Despite not having an official release date, analysts are expecting Blizzard’s real-time strategy game to be a 2010 title as well. I’m not surprised.

Bethesda tops off today’s delay news with a delay of Fallout 3 downloadable content for the PlayStation 3 which was pushed into September 2009.

Hey did you want more Fallout? Bethesda & Obsidian Entertainment announced today that Fallout: New Vegas will be coming to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

Who’s Obsidian? They’re the resurrected remains of Black Isle Studios AKA the guys who created the original Fallout and Fallout 2. Is Fallout:New Vegas a sequel to Fallout 3? Not quite:

“It is not a sequel to Fallout 3,” Hines said. “It’s simply another Fallout game in that universe.”

Last week I spoke of some of my tips for saving money as a gamer. I mentioned trading or selling off old games and I even pointed out the fact that EB Games isn’t the best place to trade-in your old titles. “I’m trying not to sell them to the likes of EB Games who don’t believe in offering fair prices at a consistent basis “.

Well it looks like they’re offering some pretty good prices. Check it out:

Fallout 3 Xbox 360 Review

I’ve never played a post apocalyptic game before. It seems like a theme which should have been exploited to oblivion and I’m surprised not many games utilize it. Perhaps it’s too depressing. Or perhaps because a world with practically nothing left would be difficult to entertain gamers with. Whatever the case may be, Fallout 3 isn’t just your every year western RPG game. Claims of “Oblivion with guns” is a mystery to me as I gave up on Bethesda’s high fantasy role playing epic. I didn’t give up on Fallout 3 though. There was a time when I wanted to, but in the end I am pleased to say that I enjoyed my journey through the Capital Wastelands — despite its flaws.
