Twisted Metal Delay Not Caused By Release Dates of Other Big Games
August 8, 2011 // 0 Comments
David Jaffe and Eat Sleep Play revealed last week that Twisted Metal had been delayed to early 2012 so that they could take some more time under the hood of the PS3 exclusive to polish it up. Jaffe later when on to expand on the specific items they are looking to fix in the game but some have apparently said the delay was due to the line-up of blockbuster games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Uncharted 3 and Battlefield 3 releasing around the same time. This sent Jaffe off on a bit of a rant to further explain the delay.
Regarding the peeps thinking we delayed TM to get away from mega games like CALL OF DU, UNCHARTED 3, &BATTLEFIELD 3: amazing how the world has conditioned them2B so cynical. I get it-you don’t respond that way unless u’ve had xperiences that bear out your world view but when u R the guy on the other end of it- as I am now-it’s amazing how little trust there is in the world when companies issue a statement. It makes me question my own cynical views of politicians and wonder if I’ve been too black/white in how I think about this stuff.
For what it’s worth I would have no problem admitting moving TM to early 2012 was only to better our chances at sales. Why NOT admit that? Admitting we need more time than we promised doesn’t HELP us look good as developers, so why offer that up if it were not true? Admitting we wanted to better time than we promised doesn’t HELP us look good as developers, so why offer that up if it were not true? Admitting we wanted to better more strategically position our game makes us look like we are doing good biz, so why not admit that? What, you think we don’t know and are afraid to acknowledge MW3 and Uncharted 3 and BF3 are staggeringly larger and more successfully franchises than Twisted Metal?
