Dreaded Delays

Video Games

This week on the show, we’re talking all about one of the most disappointing and frustrating words we can ever hear as video game fans… DELAYS. That’s right, when you’re waiting years for your favourite most anticipated video game to be released into your hot little hands, your leave at work is booked in and your partner is made aware that you’ll be off the radar for a few days, there’s nothing worse than hearing the news that you’ll have to wait several more months for usually unknown reasons.

Join Luke, Elliot, Cam and Kolby as they discuss video game delays. Why do they happen in the first place? What are some of the games that have benefited from being delayed? What about other games that were crippled due to their constantly being pushed back? Which games are currently in limbo and what is the likely impact of this?

Don’t miss any of the action and don’t forget to check out the first half of this podcast to keep up to date!
