That's the second time this month. Something fishy is going on folks. The Official Dreamcast magazine reviewed the so-called "final' version of this game last month (and gave it 8/10) yet the game has been delayed (according to EBWorld.com) again to the end of April. Was ODM fooled into thinking this was a final product? And furthermore, WHY IN THE HELL IS THIS GAME DELAYED? Brian

There are tons of things that can delay a release, silly things like not paying your programming team. Or the printers messing up the manual so that it has to be re-done, or somebody's hard drive biting it. lots of things, the producers may have looked at the release schedules of other games and decided not to compete with other announced titles. There are more reasons than I can list but the most likely is, they have a bug or found a bug that broke another part of the code.... dave henrie Mark Turner wrote:
