Batman: Arkham Knight - Part 2

[Team Andino]

This actually works our well for me, I was planning on rushing myself to get a PS4 solely for this game. Now I'll have some extra time before I'm forced into upgrading. Plus extra time for the developers to make sure everything's in order and ready to kick ass when the time's right.

Watch Lego Batman 3 get pushed back as well.

BVS, AK, and Lego Batman 3 all pushed back on Batman's 75th Anniversary.

At least we'll get the Adam West Batman tv show boxset this year. t:

Given how amazing the past two RS Arkham games have turned out, I think the delay is the good thing personally.

 

[Quasimod0]

Aww man what the heck. That is pretty suckish. I'm tired of everything getting delayed

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

I'm actually not too upset about this. I was dreading buying a PS4 this year, because frankly it's alot of cash and I was simply buying it for this game alone.

Plus, you know Rocksteady won't release a game until they are 100% satisfied with it, so I say let them have all the time they need (while I save up some money). t:

Seems like some big games this year are getting delayed into 2015. At least that gives folks time to catch up on backlogs in the meantime.

 

[Crockett]

On October there's Alien: Isolation and The Evil Within, also with my brother getting Dragon Age we've got our hands full so I can't complain.

That's exactly what I did with my PS4. I figured I'd have to get a PS4 sometime before AK came out in October, so I got mine in March. Of course, once you get a PS4, you immediately know it was well worth it and I've had some fun with a couple of games recently, Watch Dogs being the newest addition.

 

[The Joker]

Yeah I was only getting a PS4 so I could get this game. So I'm not that upset by this news.

 

[TX85]

Sucks about the delay but it's probably for the best and there's at least other games this year..for me

EA UFC-This month
Madden NFL-August
Destiny-September
WWE 2K15-October

Battlefield Hardline and Assassin's Creed Unity-October or November

That's 6 games plus F2P games like Blacklight/DC Universe Online and Warframe that I play..although Blacklight&Warframenare are just place holder games until Destiny.

They are all multipolar form but I don't care since I only have a PS4 right now

 

[Two-Face]

As noted before me, been delayed to next year.

Batman: Arkham Knight release date slips to 2015

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-06-03-batman-arkham-knight-release-date-slips-to-2015

2015 is going to be a packed year for console games. At least, until some games slip to 2016 ha ha.

I'm not upset either because Arkham Origins had problems so I don't want a broken game on my new PS4. i'm happy to wait for 2015 release.

 

[antsman41]

I was right about the delay... From like 3 months ago, What do I win?

 

[DarthSkywalker]

So outside of the annuals, what is coming out this year? This is just horrible for early adopters. Nearly everything promised for 2014 has slipped to 2015. Thank Bob I bought a Wii U.

 

[BrollySupersj]

If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Boooooo on the delay. On the bright side we'll get a better game, but damn I was ready for some Arkham Knight.

 

[Quasimod0]

Even with the lack of huge exclusive games this year, I'm definitely still satisfied with my ps4 purchase. I was gonna buy it anyways sometime, and I'm really enjoying the games I have for it now.

This fancy green Bat-Fanny pack!

 

[X Knight]

October was a packed month anyways..........

so I'm not really complaining.

 

[BrollySupersj]

It almost seems like delays are part of the marketing plan of games as well these days. It happens so much.

Big game revealed.
Not so far off release date.
DELAY.

Idk, maybe next time just don't have a release date till you're absolutely sure you know it can be released.

 

[Swordmaster]

I'm actually okay with this, since now I don't have to rush through Dragon Age.

OMG. I'm glad it push to 2015, Gives me more time.

Don't you jinx us, Kane!!

 

[Bruce Malone]

I wonder if Rocksteady saw how rushing a game out affected AO and decided it just wasn't worth it?

Yea there was a good discussion on that at IGN. And they came to the conclusion that while delays are good in the long run, publishers are prematurely announcing titles knowing the dev team can't reach them all because they want to get the preorders going.

WB: Hey Rocksteady, can you guys get this game out by Oct 2014

Rocksteady: Umm, possibly, bu...

WB: *Runs out of the room* HEY GUYS CALL GAMESTOP AND TELL THEM PREORDERS ARE OPEN ON ARKHAM KNIGHT!!!! OCT 2014!!!!

Yea I think its a little of wanting to release the best game possible and a little of them never thinking 2014 was doable. That was prob more WB than Rocksteady.
