Dark Void slips to 2010

ANOTHER ONE bites the dust...
Pushing December 25 even closer to being renamed 'Activision Day', yet another Christmas game has been delayed until 2010; Capcom's Dark Void.

The game was originally planned for the Christmas period but will now be released in Capcom's fiscal Q4, it's confirmed, which runs between January and the end of March next year.

The publisher said that it postponed 'Void "to avoid competition with releases of major titles of other companies." This is officially known as "Modern Warfare syndrome".

In case you've forgotten what it is by now (and we reckon you probably have) Dark Void is the latest shooter from Crimson Skies dev Airtight games. It involves lots of flying around, shooting aliens and more traditional third-person cover shooting. See it action below.

Jesus, another one. Well, at least Capcom came right out and said it was to avoid the competition.

Shall we just assume that the ONLY game coming out at Christmas is MW2?

as i said before this is def the worst end of year lineup for games, im just glad mw 2 aint delayed cos then id really be ****ed off
Posted by The_KFD_Case
That would be a hell of a thing if all of a sudden, "TAADAA! Surprise everybody! We've decided to spend a few more months optimizing MW2, so it won't be out until 2010"! :lol:

@KFD

Activision won't let them, but it would be damn funny if they did and EVERY other game magically became un-delayed and got a Christmas release.

Oh F**k! Damn, I was looking forward to this. (Sighs) Right, all that's left before Modern Warfare 2 comes out that interests me now is Brutal Legend, Uncharted 2, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, Borderlands and That's it.

That's it?

Those games are enough to have you covered until next year I would think :)

That's not a bad compilation of games, IMO. Certainly nothing to sneeze at.

This is steadily getting more and more ridiculous, an awful lot of "polishing" going on......wonder what exactly is being polished.. ahem...
Posted by GTCzeero
At least there's still a fair bounty of games coming out at the end of the year (especially if you're a multi platform gamer), and it's getting to wallet sensible levels now.

I was intrigued by Dark Void, but most of that was down to the fact Bear McReary is doing the soundtrack.
