Not super comforting when literally 4 games from that list are actually confirmed for this year.
E3 (and the lead-up) needs to come through with some big release dates for this Fall. Otherwise, it's gonna suck for single player gamers.
Not sure if serious.
If the game gets delayed to Fall 2018, they might even have a GTA V scenario with a crossgen port a year later for ultimate double dipping.

Rockstar's first game built for the ground up on current-gen hardware is releasing four and a half years into the console cycle. That's...pretty crazy. Hope it's worth the wait.

San Andreas, GTA4, Red Dead 1 and GTA5 all won Game of the Year.
Maybe they want to keep that track record
, because of zelda.

Rockstar getting Breath of the Wild.
It's way too late to implement systems like that.

They won GOTYs but most of the times they weren't the most awarded. San Andreas got 3rd place behind HL2 and Halo 2 and GTA4 got 2nd place to Fallout 3. RDR is the only one who actually got overall GOTY for Rockstar but even then it was very close one against Mass Effect 2. GTA V took 2nd place behind TLOU.
RDR2 could have still had a shoot this year against Zelda.
Anyways I'm predicting a May release next year to coincide with RDR's may release. If it get's delayed until Fall 2018 then I'll be slightly shocked.

Rockstar has pretty much perfected themselves in that respect. They've no qualms with ports at later dates.

Only problem I see here, is that we will be hearing about a new GTA in 2019, minimum
Yep 2019-2020 at best. At this rate It's gonna be a cross gen game.

Far Cry 5 and Destiny 2 are saved.
Poor souls coming out in Spring 2018.
I hope it's a May release.

I'm actually... totally fine with this. Provided we get a better more polished and complete product on launch day. I have faith R*
Shit, I'm glad this was delayed.
Now I have the chance to hopefully catch up to this year of gaming bliss. Unopened copies of Horizon, Zelda, Ni-Oh, and Nier sit on my shelf- I'm just getting through P5 now.
Gotta have some time to digest all this greatness.

GTA = Generation Theft Again
Did I miss the new From reveal? I don't know about the title, but the premise sounds intriguing.
Edit: They'll probably just reuse a bunch of their existing assets again:

I don't care. I just want it to be good.
Ha I was thinking this. Ubisoft is probably throwing a little party right now.

I think Days Gone was looking at May-June 2018 to begin with. I think it was Detroit that seemed more 50/50 on if it could make 2017 or not, but with this in mind I'm sure things are less stressful for it. An October release doesn't sound too farfetched.

I'm glad Crackdown 3 has a better chance to shine now if it comes out this year lol

R* released a 30 second video last year which showed zero gameplay, a name, and a release date. all the hype was the release date.
and every Gamestop has had giant "pre-order RDR 2. coming Fall 2017" posters up since.
I believed. developers really need to stop pulling this shit.
Destiny 2 didn't have anything to worry about though, don't really know about FC5.

What game has Rockstar not had to delay?
I think we all assumed this was happening. The no gameplay reveal was a pretty big notion of it.

This was brought to you by your Neogaf specialist with a PhD is psychological studies.
or my little brother who is 10-years old for his first essay in social sciences class ?
Some folks just use their brains and don't repeat the same post like sheeps : "it'll get delayed because I say so!" (then say "called it lol" like sheeps once again)
