Kojima's Not Too Happy Peace Walker's Been Delayed.

Director Hideo Kojima is pretty gutted about that. He wrote on his blog:

“I always preach to the staff, ‘You must not have a delay after a release date has been announced. There is no greater crime as a game developer.“Official announcement of a release date is nothing less than a promise to fans and business partners. In other words, a release date change is like betraying the expectations of everyone.

“It probably takes a long time to earn back trust [from the fans] that has been lost. However we will work hard, with the hope that we will one day earn the support of everyone again.”

Blimey Kojima. There's no need to win us over. We're certain the end product will more than make up for the delay.
