^ Hahaha. Now that's pretty kick-ass. Luke Skywalker FTW!

Too bad the news about this game being delayed was announced. I hate when things with potential get pushed back. Why can't we ever hear this kinda news about sh*tty titles like 90% of the Wii's games?

Meh, I'm kind of glad actually. I was just going to be getting back from E3 at that point (exhaustion) and I'd rather space out Batman & Ghostbusters.

If you're itching to play Batman, just rent 50 Cent Blood on the Sand. Its essentially the same game.

I played it, It wasn't terrible but nothing really amazing.

I guess they find it fun pushing the game back because this is the third time they've done it to my knowledge. I think it's coming out September first now. Other websites say August as well so I have no idea. I also noticed the European release date hasn't changed so I wonder why that is.

No, it's also been delayed in Europe.

Yeah instead of looking at the GameFAQ release dates, and message board posts complaining, I looked up some articles on it.

They either didn't get what they thought they could done in the time frame they set for themselves or they started to notice glitches and stuff and wanted to make it as perfect as possible. They have even more expectation to live up to now that it's been delayed so I hope they can deliver. If they don't this will be the most disappointing game in awhile for me personally.

I actually find it refreshing that somebody would delay a game for quality rather than cop out, let the gamers bug test it, then patch it later. Now, if it gets delayed to November, then it was just for the Holiday rush.

I think it's clear that they got a better response than they expected to, and thus have more pressure to deliver at this point.

Like TMB said, this seems like a polish delay, if it gets delayed until later in the year, it's totally a "WHOMG! HOLIDAY SALES!" thing.
