SWtOR must be coming out Christmas 2011 then.



...Oh who am I kidding.

[ExtremeOne]

If Star Wars The Old Republic was coming in 2011 . then yeah that would be a bigger game because it is a Star Wars game

[Last Vizard]

the real reason is that they want to make this a TPS with multiplayer.... good RPGs are too hard to make money on because they are for hard core gamers..... i'm betting the Witcher 2 is better than ME 3.

I confess, that I don't know much about that theory, would it have to come out December to fit with it?

December 21, 2012 is suppsoed to be the date for all that believe in the theory.

You don't have to believe in it to understand what they're talking about, you don't even have to think it's sane.

**** the Mayan calendar, 2012 is when Skynet becomes self aware.

Then how do we make it to find the mass relay? D:

Besides a possible multiplayer component, I'd say a real reason they aren't releasing this year is to stay out of the way of Gears 3.

[Lapis Lazuli]

They're probably working on very extensive DLCs

[Mr. Gogeta34]

That too

Wait, is Mass Effect 3 delayed?

It was pushed back from the holiday season of 2011 to the first three months or so of 2012. This is most likely because a lot of big-name RPGs and action games are all coming out around this holiday season and it's a bit hard to compete effectively, Mass Effect or no; the game will likely sell better if it waits for a "calmer" time.

All fine by me, because there are already quite a few games coming out then to kill all of my spare time, so ME3 coming out later fits my schedule to a T.

It keeps them from having to compete with Skyrim, at least. I'm grateful for that, because Skyrim will own my soul for a few months.

I'm looking forward to ME3 after the spoilers now more than Skyrim or the Witcher 2 although I plan to play all of them...maybe it was to keep from competing somewhat but I'm glad they did it...not just for a better game but because this year is kinda looking like rpg overload.

[Lapis Lazuli]

Skyrim will be off da heezy fo sheezy fo shizzle ma dizzle and all that, but I'm looking forward to ME3 more...

The end of the Mayan Long Count is not meant to signify an apocalypse, it's just meant to herald the end of an era and the birth of a new era, presumably via some kind of paradigm shift. I vote alien contact.

nah the real reason is they're making a mobile version which they want launched simultaneously with the console versions

hence "reaching a wider audience"

Here's the deal: not one damn person here knows the "real reason".  There's just a bunch of people who think they do.

I suppose I'll never understand humanity's enthusiasm over seeing the world come to an end quicker than necessary. lmao

[frylock23]

Eh, there are more reasons than just the Mayan long count for people to think something significant will happen on 12/21/2012. Most are about as concrete as the Mayan long count, but it is fun to watch everyone froth at how they all seem to oh-so-conveniently point to about the same time frame. My personal favorite is the Hopi prophecies that no one had ever heard of until like the 1950s or something like that. It's "amazing" those are all so eearily accurate ... Doom watching makes for a fascinating hobby.

At any rate, ME3's delay just makes it a better birthday present. I can wait for a few months.

I remember one on the ME team stated that they won't be working on any DLC.

Wow, it's nice to be an old gamer. I remember reading "88 reasons the rapture will occur in 1988." Ah, good times.

True.  Since you pointed that out, I'll share my guess as to why Mass Effect 3 was pushed back.  Dragon Age II has horrible sales, or at least much lower than anticipated.  In the first nine weeks, it has only sold 1,325,147 of the 2,000,000 units shipped to retailers, and its sales are falling fast, despite price cuts and special deals.  I have a feeling sales will drop even more once The Witcher 2 is released.  Assuming the retailers bought those units under a short-term loan contract, EA will need to buy back 600,000+ units, which will be a dead-weight loss on the next fiscal year.  BioWare, as far as I know, had no releases planned for 2012, which means the studio would be operating at a huge loss for that fiscal year.  So, Mass Effect 3 was pushed back to counter that loss and make the books look better.

Of course, that is all just my speculation.
