After being told by Activision that even though there under attack by a bloke who is going to sue them over True Crime's main character, all formats for True Crime will be released 7th November. Well for some reason Gamecube's misses out again as it seems that it won't be released until 21st November, not much longer i know but still annoying if you are highly anticipating it! Xbox and PS2 release dates still remain at 7th November, Next friday. Good job i'm getting the Xbox version! :)

Want to know why the delay?

It's the same reason for the Timesplitters 2 delay.

Developers often... and I mean often... forget that Nintendo take 2 weeks to produce and run a game before releasing it to the shops. Microsoft and Sony take 1 week.

Those who want a big worldwide release on all systems have to either ship to Nintendo early, get Nintendo to publish it or add an extra ammount of money.

Developers often choose to wait.

It isn't supposed to be too good, but there's no denying that the videos do make it look at least as good as GTA: Vice City. Who knows? It may surprise us all. I'll keep an open mind, to save the risk of eating my hat when the true verdicts come out.

The PS2 demo is awful, absolutley awful. Cube owners are lucky that they have an extra 2 weeks without a shocking game to put up with.

I disagree strongly with that.

From what ive been told the release date for the GC version is still 7th Nov, as with all releases - time will tell.

I'm sure there won't be much sleep lost over it, it's not really that good a game. Not as poor as everyone is exclaiming, but still crap. Plus, there are much better GC ames round the corner, don't really have to tell you that.

Oh this is great. Another piece of evidence that developers are beginning to steer clear of the 'cube.
