 "Mercenaries World in Flames Delayed")
I really hate to be the harbinger of bad news, but it looks as if yet another game has been delayed to next year. Mercenaries: World in Flames, the most excellent sequel to the free roaming shoot-everything-up Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, has now been pushed to early next year.
Here’s the lowdown from Pandemic Studios’ President and Co-Founder Josh Resnick in an interview with ign.com :
“To answer your question: yes indeed, the retailer genies have done it again, and I can officially confirm that Mercenaries 2 is set for release early next year – Q1 2008 to be more specific.”
At this rate I wonder if any of the high-profile games we were promised will release this year!
Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
