Release Date

[ultraddtd]

There are a LOT of shooters between their supposed 9/7/2010 date (or just fall in general) and their new spring 2011 date. They run the risk of jumping into an oversaturated market at the tail end of a ton of shooter releases by the time they even get their game out the door. If they hit their original window they would have had far less competition in the marketplace.

True. And it’s been shown last year that a supposed “underdog” can thrive with a pre-November release date. A lot of people thought Borderlands would have trouble finding it’s place since it was launching a few weeks before MW2 and AC2, but it did really well.

There’s a big lull in games in late summer/early fall that BEGS for a good release to take advantage of our eager and impatient wallets.

I mean, COD Black Ops?

Black who? I had no idea it was already out until I entered a store.
