Ah, this is good news in my opinion. Didn’t buy a single game (other than ODST) last year but this year I have alot on my wishlist. AvP, Mass Effect 2, SC: Conviction and Bad Company 2 all of which were set to release within less than 2 months of each other. This makes the decision to buy AvP first alot easier.

I’m in the same boat – a delay to April is very helpful indeed.

Ubisofts stock price has been falling a lot the last few days. I guess this is the reason. Somebody knew something and sold their stocks.

@4 It’s been MUCH more than 2 :(

Although yeah a delay to april aint that bad cos february and march are just WAY TOO CROWDED :O

February alone I’m getting heavy rain, avp, bioshock 2 (and depending on reviews I might get dante’s inferno at some point too). Yep my wallet hates me so much :)

This is great :P Game looks ropey in single player, they delay it. Add a nice co-op mode, people say it looks ropey so they delay it again.

Chances of us playing this game 35% :P

Who said it looks ropey? Looks fucking great, to me: both the SP and MP.

Most likely to fix a few little bugs, i saw a video preview with a dude doing a walkthrough and there was a bug while he was doin it. Luckily he didnt seem stupid and pretend it never happened :) he actually pointed it out and said somethin like ‘oopps (whatever he named the bug) we’ll be fixin that’ or somethin similar :)

THANK GOD!

I was worried about spending £80 on both this and Heavy Rain on the same day… now I don’t have to worry (and may even be able to spring for FFXIII) =D.

They’ve obviously delayed it so that they can still coincide with GT5. :-D

I’m also glad this happened since i’m planning on getting Mass Effect 2, Bad Company 2, and FFXIII.

Anyone who saw the latest gameplay videos, must have noticed the horrible framerate during a few parts, i hope they will fix these now, they’ll have the time for it. And maybe a VS mode after all?
