LOL
Guess you've not looked very hard have you?


Two posts before yours in this very topic, Was May 23.... IF you'd checked Amazon, gamestop or elsewhere.

The ROM we received that was supposedly final was missing content when we tested it, so we have to have that fixed. Even if we get it back, tested and into Sony by the end of next week (which is herculean, and assumes the replacement ROM is right), I doubt the end of May will hold. I just don't have a better idea until we receive the fixed ROM and test it. We've told retailers and distributors, who may put up new placeholder dates, but know that we have NOT set a new date, and can't until we test the replacement ROM. Once it gets past us, it's very likely to get through Sony, so we're on the manufacture train at that point, and manufacture is a few weeks.

Sucks, I know. We're disappointed, too, because it means ANOTHER playthrough to test the fixed ROM, and a delay for fans, but trust me, you did NOT want the version we got, and I prefer to release as clean a disc as possible instead of a mess that is day-one patched, because someday those patch servers will not be there and the mess on the disc is all people will have to judge the game by.

I'm totally not bothered, I VASTLY prefer a delayed fixed game. I don't download day-1 patches or any of that stuff, my consoles are deliberately not connected to the interweb.

Right on. I will only connect my console and patch if the game is broken and I can't progress. It's only come up once fortunately but I didn't play Bethesda games on PS3 which surely helps.

But da tropheyz?!?!?!

Wouldn't feel right if there was no delay.

And I also FULLY SUPPORT waiting on the physical rather than settling with a patch.

I wish more video game companies felt this way!

Funny how it wouldn't be a big deal if we hadn't stepped backwards with console gen. seven and then Steam coming to prominence.

Vic, I could hug you. Day 1 patches are the bane of a collector's existence.

You know what's hard? Fitting a 72 page manual in a PSVita case. Vita is a great RPG platform if you don't want thick physical manuals.
