Bioshock Infinite suffers another setback
The game was set to be released on February 26, but the studio have now pushed the date back to March 26.
The games Creative Director, Ken Levine reasoned the pushed back release date as:
“It’s primarily polish and bug fixing,”
Levine then continued to add
“You know, 'let’s make that narrative scene that much better. Let’s do another pass on the timing of that scene. Let’s do another balance pass.’ It’s a game we could have shipped in February. It just wouldn’t be the game that we think the fans deserve. And that doesn’t mean it was far off from that, but they deserve what they deserve. And when we ask people to pony up a lot of money for this game, we have to feel confident that we’re giving them something that they deserve.”
“I knew I was going to take some slings and arrows about it, but I always just said ‘look, at the end of the day, the slings and arrows will go away. The game will last forever.’”
With so many big name developers recently releasing what feels like half finished games, It's nice to know that this studio cares enough to release a properly tested and hopefully well polished game.

SinguhlarityVisionaryMGMTDragifyPummpy1thunderxl I understand why their doing it but this game was supposed to come out in November 2011, and now its march 2013?
All games coming out like halo cod have 0 bugs and if their are their patched in a day.
Also cod games are made in 1 year, halo takes 3 but its 10x better.
If you wanted to do something REALY good for the fans you should work twice as hard and make it come out an extra 2 months early in december for christmas.
Call of duty is made in 2 Year's.
It was mainly this cycle

They get 2 years each to make the game. But IW is pretty much dead now. And Im not sure who is doing the next game
IW already stated they were working on Mw4, where have you been?
Infinity ward is pretty much a group of people now. It's pretty much dead as a company.
actually infinity ward was the first to make a call of duty game and there not dead they might have lost there main people that went to go create Respawn entertainment with EA. At least they make a **** load of money making huge games while you sit on a gaming community site and trash them....im done
This game suffers the same date as Aliens: Colonial Marines, the game was announced in 2009 was supposed to come out in 201, the was pushed back 3 or 4 times :(
