Dark Messiah 360 slips again News
Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese
Ubisoft has confirmed that Dark Messiah of Might & Magic: Elements has been pushed back into early 2008.
The first-person fantasy action game is now due in the fourth quarter of the publisher's financial year, which means it will be released sometime between January and the end of March.
It follows word from last week that it had been held back until the start of December. But, evidently, it has since found another patch of magical ice to run carelessly across.
Elements is the 360 version of the popular PC game from last year, whose delightfully gruesome source-powered antics prompted us to award it a healthy 8/10.
New to the console port will be revamped controls fit for a pad, Live integration for 10 of you on some fresh maps, plus a fantasy-bucket full of various nips and tucks.
Pop over to our Dark Messiah of Might & Magic: Elements gamepage to see how it's coming along.

This is faint on the radar for me.... but on the radar nevertheless.....
If it ends up being a decent port with some quality online options, I may be tempted. Whether tempted is enough to pull me away from Halo 3 and CoD4 (which, I'm sure, will both having amasing and long-lasting MP elements) remains to be seen.... |

Never really got into Oblivion - it still sits on my shelf, watching me, taunting me, noting down every game I play instead of itself - because non-Bioware or Interplay RPGs have always bored my bearded socks off.
This actually looks like a game I'd buy. And play. And you cannot get higher praise from me. |

Good news, all in all. There's far too many quality releases coming out before Christmas.

"How about a game you buy, play, AND enjoy? :) " That's just plain silly. Honestly - a game that could do ALL THREE? That would be like some kind of gaming utopia, the likes of which can only be dreamt of in the minds of the maddest electronic philosophers and hence, for the rest of us, a mere inconceivable imagining. I'm all-joyed out by a game that I purchase and pop in the disc drive - I'd probably explode if I enjoyed the damn things... |

I fear to even unwrap such a holy receptacle of unbridled entertainment - to do so would surely earn the wrath of the gaming gods, whereby they would foist on me the nefarious fiend that is Jack Thompson, subjecting me to an existence of unending torment, consisting of poorly-spelled emails attacking my intelligence and resolve, as well as questioning my worthiness as a human being and casting doubt as to the legality of my parentage. No doubt I would also be accused of being a 'known associate of Rockstar', a fate surely worse than any mere death could possibly be. So I most certainly will not play BioShock - I shall merely gaze at it reverentially from time to time, but not too long, lest I offend it with my imperfect eyes.

This would most definetly have been lost amongst the higher profile games, early next year though I might have to check it out.

I finished it on a PC, and i think that it is highly recommended.
I think that it is a good thing taking some more time to iron out bugs. It had it's share on the PC version, not enough to spoil your fun. Without the annoying bugs the game will turn out better still. |

Gotta say though, slippage is good right now. There's a ton of good stuff actually spread out over the first half of next year, in addition to the stuff that's actually supposed to come out then. This makes a marked difference to this year, which started Lost Planet (three month wait) Crackdown (two month wait) GH2 (two month wait) BioshockHalo3PGR4HalfLife2MassEffect...

Loads of people are looking forward to this, foolish boy/girl. Drop and give me twenty, and then go brush your teeth with soap as a lesson on speaking without due consideration. ;) |

I haven't played it on PC, but it seems like the sort of game I will definitely check out when I finally get a 360.
Can't see that the delay is a bad thing for it. Perhaps try to avoid the likes of MGS4, DMC4, GTAIV, Alan Wake and Fable 2 when it's released next year, aswell? |
