I have read about three pages here regarding push back.  This does not surprise me.  From this point forward I would hope gaming companies would just refrain from posting release dates at all until they are absolutely positively ready to release on those dates.  Too much poison is needlessly spit at the gaming companies when they push things back.  My feeling here is they kind of place themselves in that position by pre-hyping their merchandise too soon.

This is what I call "The Vanguard Effect" and a bit of "cold feet".  Now, I suppose Warhammer will, in turn push back their release now that it is common knowledge that Conan is not ready.  What type of "gamesmanship" is this?  It does seem noone is willing to get it done according to the planned time schedule.

 

Well, we shall see won't we...

Three big games to be released this year, or so they say..maybe 4 if the Korean game, Aion is actually released in North America by Christmas.
