According to Gamefront UBI has announced that SC Double Agent (all platforms) isn't going to be released in march, but this september.

I guess Far Cry will be the next title to get postponed.

 

[trmas]

Not a surprise. Sucks, but not a surprise.

 

[IJoel]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO /Vader

 

[open_mouth_]

postponing games is a good thing, imo. Better quality with spread out releases is healthier for everyone, imo.

AM CRY!!












PS3

AM HAPPY??

 

[trmas]

Has a PS3 version been announced yet? If so it would give us a clue as to when the PS3 is coming out.

 

[muphins]

You're slipping, Ubi! Should've been out months ago!

 

[op_ivy]

 

[trmas]

Now THAT is an awesome smiley!

 

[Solid]

Anyone know when the new DLC for Far Cry Instincts are coming?

 

[Ranger X]

Guys, that was an GREAT decision.

 

[eeyore the donkey]

damn did i call this or what? just like 20 mins ago...prophet total

but does anyone really think sc4 is coming out in a couple of months with as little media as we've seen? this game might get delayed like GRAW did

 

[Doom_Bringer]

I hope it comes to PS3! Tell them to port it to PS3 wyzdom

In addition, the rescheduling to September 2006 of the launch of Tom Clancy?s Splinter Cell Double AgentTM is meant to release the title on all platforms simultaneously, including the Microsoft Xbox® 360 that should have a much larger installed base by that time.

This will also enable to maintain the highest quality for which Tom Clancy?s Splinter Cell® is recognized. This rescheduling will ensure the best return from the coming release as well as from future sequels of this brand over time.

:-(

 

[Ghost]

Who cares, muther trucking GRAW & OBLIVION in March, who has time for anything else?

 

[Xrenity]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WHAT SHALST I DO NOW.

 

[Mrbob]

So 360 is the reason for the delay?

No big deal to me. 6 more months of development can't hurt. We all cry about buggy UBI games anyway. Now they have more time to finish things up.

 

[guise]

Good

 

[Kuroyume]

That's fucking excellent!

I don't know if I could have handled MGS3S AND Splinter Cell in the same month PLUS midterms. This also gives me time to collect for a 360. I don't want to touch any versions except for the next gen one.

 

[dorio]

What does this mean for the french unveiling?

Screw games, I want screenshots and movies to drool over.

 

[Mrbob]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WHAT SHALST I DO NOW.

GRAW + Oblivion = Crazy Delicious

 

[Borys]

Ubi is smart. Simultaneous PS3/ 360/ PC release FTW!

 

[crunker99]

This is Gamefront are u sure this applies worldwide? Or only euro

 

[Excelion]

seems like MGS4 will have to go against a GTA/Halo3/SC5 combo for christmas 2007.

 

[rocksolidaudio]

some of you are really shocked about this? that, in turn, shocks me.

 

[Nightmarecast25]

Ubi is smart. Simultaneous PS3/ 360/ PC release FTW!

No PS3 version has been announced yet, and if it's not at E3 then don't count on it, also I am hearing November for PS3, not September............. but knowing Ubisoft, SCDA is coming in November. :lol

 

[solarplexus]

It's not on the release schedule Jan - Mar 2006 (U.S. + Europe) so it has to be worldwide.

[Dr_Cogent]

Dr. Cogent am cry.

I'm sure it was done for good reason though, so it must be the right thing to do.

 

[dorio]

Can anyone answer my question if the unveiling is still scheduled? Blim?

bah thats a shame

GRAW?
I've got no 360

 

[TekunoRobby]

Ahhh well, I knew it was too good to be true. Its not like I'll have time for anything else with Oblivion in my 360, haha.

 

[op_ivy]

i cant imagine it would change that, as i'm sure whatever it is has already been filmed

 

[VictimOfGrief]

Just in time for the PS3 launch no doubt. :lol

 

[solarplexus]

There is something about SC Double Agent in german TV tonight (RTL II NEWS).

I understand GTA and Halo, but Splinter Cell has dropped off big time in terms of sales. MGS3 blew Chaos Theory away in that department.

 

[op_ivy]

Just in time for the PS3 launch no doubt. :lol

sept 2007!? jesus, i thought it was only delayed to later this year

 

[Beer Monkey]

Lockdown was delayed, and delayed, and was pure crap when it came out. Never again, Ubi!

 

[Dr_Cogent]

sept 2007!? jesus, i thought it was only delayed to later this year

2007? WTF? Wait, where does it say that?

 

[Beer Monkey]

2007? WTF? Wait, where does it say that?

See what he did there?

 

[VictimOfGrief]

2007? WTF? Wait, where does it say that?

It doesn't Op_Ivy is more of an Xbot than I am. :lol

 

[Musashi Wins!]

Boooooo!

ah who the hell am I kidding, I've barely scratched the surface of what I own. And I want Oblivion and Fight Night to get their proper due.

 

[Dr_Cogent]

See what he did there?

Oh, I see - he's implying that PS3 isn't going to launch over here till 2007.

 

[VictimOfGrief]

Oh, I see - he's implying that PS3 isn't going to launch over here till 2007.

yes.

 

[araganekyassuru]

what made them go "oh it will be out in a couple of months" to "hmm maybe we'll give it another 6-7 months just in case"?

I'm not complaining, just that I find that big of a jump kinda weird

Do you work in software development? If not, I can understand you not understanding.

 

[siamesedreamer]

Dude, this was a given. No way Ubi would have released their two flagship titles (Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell) in the same month. Talk about canabalizing your sales.........

Anyway, this is fantastic news for those of us who adore the Spies vs. Mercs multiplayer mode. Pushing it back to September means there will be more people to compete against on Live because there will be more people who have a 360.

I'm just curious as to what's gonna happen to the new Rainbow Six?

 

[Pedigree Chum]

That fucking sucks. It was the only 360 game I was anticipating for the next few months :/

 

[krypt0nian]

The way I see it, this rocks hard for the 360 version.

Go Shanghai!
