THQ Delays South Park: Stick Of Truth, Company of Heroes 2, And Metro: Last Light

Posted on Monday, November 5 @ 13:54:47 Eastern by Keri_Honea


According to a press release from THQ, South Park: Stick of Truth, Metro: Last Light, and Company of Heroes 2 have all been pushed back a bit.

Metro: Last Light and Company of Heroes 2 were originally slated to release in early, early 2013, but now both have been pushed back to March 2013.

South Park: Stick of Truth was scheduled for March 2013, but now will be pushed into early fiscal year 2014, which means April 2013 at the earliest.

The reason for the delays? Jason Rubin, President of THQ, has said that the games essentially need more polish, something that they want to take extra time for to ensure that the games are "market-ready." Considering how many games are often criticized for lack of polish, I think we'd all rather see games get delayed and release beautifully instead of on time and be riddled with bugs.

    THQ understands that there's incredible hype for South Park, and they don't want to f*** it up. Either that or Cartman is holding them hostage. (Most likely.)

    I wonder if this game is worthy of freezing yourself to wait for it's release.

    At this point, I'm just hoping THQ lasts long enough to finish off the Darksiders series. I'm already somewhat disappointed that the series' main producer left the company recently. That's not a good sign for the series' chances.

    I wonder what would happen to South Park if THQ folded. Obsidian will get paid either way, but the game needs a publisher. It will be the first game they've ever done where they are able to do things the way they like, on their own tools, with a subject that interests them. Dungeon Siege III is the most stable game they've yet made. I never experienced a single crash or glitch while playing it. Unfortunately the game sucks. It isn't remotely like their other stuff; ambitious, complex, well written and highly original.
