Now for news that really bums me out:

Army of Two will miss holiday

From gamesindustry.biz:

EA needs time to "get the first title right"

EA's Army of Two, originally planned for a November release, has been delayed until early 2008.

"Army of Two has potential to become a lasting EA franchise -- so getting the first title right is essential," Frank Gibeau, head of EA Games, said in a statement.

The company said it needed time to "polish" the co-op shooter, which is being programmed for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter expected the game to earn approximately USD 54 million in revenue during EA's third quarter.

"It's an important game for them if they hope to establish it as a franchise," Pachter told Reuters.

I wonder if this is the reason EA wants a universal platform. I also wonder which system is giving them the most trouble. Part of me wants to say the Colecovision is holding this game up, but I could be wrong.
Could this be a turning point for Electronic Arts? Are they going from a game factory to actually caring about the quality of their products? This news could quiet down the naysayers of the Bioware/Pandemic buyout and bring in a new age of innovation at EA.

Or it could be a stall tactic to point out that multiple consoles delay games. I hope for innovation but realize the latter is more of a possibility.
