Hmm, can't believe nobody's posted this. Oh well, here's the article.

Metal Gear 2 aims for February 2002

Konami sources have confirmed that you won’t be looking at the hottest game currently in development for a very long time indeed...

It looks amazing. It is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the only true next generation games in the works at this point. It has graphics to kill for and gameplay to match. You want Metal Gear Solid 2 so much it hurts, right?
Shame you won’t be playing it until at least next February, then. According to Konami sources, the PlayStation 2 killer app has a decent chance of getting into Japanese stores before the end of the year, but European gamers will be waiting a good deal longer than that. February is the earliest release admitted by the company so far, with "within the financial year" meaning there’s a chance you won’t see it in your living room until next April.

Yikes. No reason has been given for the change in release date as yet, but localisation issues are a surefire bet.
