And before you flame me, remember, you PS3 guys got a patch -- we Xbox players did not. If we had, I'd still be playing regularly. As it is, it was just too frustrating. I switched to IL-2 1946 on PC and had a blast.
With you on this one. Perhaps it's a blessing in disguise the game won't make it prior to Christmas, with that pressure gone Gaijin/Konami should be able to take the time that's needed to get it right from the start. Title updates on consoles are very expensive.

Agreed. Not to mention BoS would get swamped by the big games that come out at Christmas time. They don't want to be competeing against Battlefield 3for example. Idealy they will want to release on a week that nothing else comes out that way they get most media coverage and hopefully sales.

It makes more sense to get everything right from the get go. Better to wait and have a fab game than rush it out onto the market half assed.

I'm guessing that this has more to do with MW3 in November than anything else..

It would be suicidal to release it 4th quarter, MW3 is going to be huge. Best to let it settle first.

Remember MW2? That landed 2 months after IL-2 and took a lot of players away.
