EA has announced that the Xbox 360 version of TitanFall, Respawn Entertainment’s first title and a multiplayer-only FPS at that, has been delayed. It will now be releasing on March 25th in North America and March 28th in Europe. The Xbox One and PC version will be out on March 11th in NA and March 14th in Europe.

EA’s Patrick Soderland stated that, “To give [developers Bluepoint] the time they need to put the finishing touches on the current-gen version of the game, we are moving the Xbox 360 ship date to March 25 in North America and March 28 in Europe. The extra two weeks will ensure the full world of Xbox gamers has an awesome experience.”

While Respawn is busy developing the suitably next gen version of the shooter, the Xbox 360 version is being handled by Bluepoint Games, which is a great track record for porting games. Stay tuned for more news and updates on Titanfall as we approach release, including for the upcoming beta.

There is no confirmation on whether this is limited to Europe or pertains to the worldwide launch of the console, and for that matter, no reason has been given for the delay. Could it be tough competition from Sony’s PlayStation 4? A manufacturing delay? A shortage of units to meet targets? Your guess is as good as ours.

However, it’s highly unlikely that the Xbox One could release next year due to Call of Duty: Ghosts coming out in the same month as the console. The series has always been favourable for Microsoft’s consoles, and if rumours of Ghosts launching alongside the console are true, it could provide a major impetus for moving Xbox One units. So take this as a rumour for now.

Pocketwatch Games has announced today on the official Monaco Facebook page that there was an issue with the Xbox Live edition coming out originally as planned. However, the PC version of the game will still be released on Steam on April 24th 2013.

“We’ve already submitted an update to Microsoft to fix the problem, and as soon as we know that the issue is fixed we’ll have a new release date,”  they said via a Facebook Post.

Monaco did very well at the 2010 Game Developers Conference – Independent Games Festival. They were awarded with Excellence In Design and the Seamus McNally Grand Prize. If you’re unaware of what Monaco is, please check out the official website of the game for screenshots, videos and information.

Reason for the delay was not clarified, and now were not sure if this is going to have any affect on the release of the demo that was supposed to come out with Ratchet and Clank collection later this month.

However, the good news is that Sony have stated that if you buy Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time for PS3, you will also get the PS Vita version for free thanks to the Cross-Buy promotion. This promotion was announced earlier at Gamescom. This promotion also allows you to buy other PS3 games, and get PS Vita ones for free if they’re are cross-play titles such as Playsation All-Stars.

Nintendo has officially delayed Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon was slated for this holiday season, and Nintendo has stated that “Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon will now be available in the first half of 2013″. No official reason was provided to why the game was delayed till next year. The game was announced back in E3 2011, and was a given a release date of 2012, at this year’s E3.

Considering this year is already filled with so many high quality titles that are coming out later this, and holiday season. It is not very surprising that this could be the cause of the delay, mainly to avoid the competition, and get higher sales in the longer run.

Hopefully in the near future Nintendo will provide a real reason for the delay, and release some new information regarding this title, for now we just have to sit tight, and wait.

Man, the PC gamers just can’t catch a break, can they? Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, which was supposed to be released in November will now release in December on the PC.

However, it will launch on the Xbox 360 and PS3 on November 15 as planned.

Ubisoft has given no reason regarding the postponed date. All they said was this: “Assassin’s Creed Revelations will launch on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on November 15 and PC in December.” (Joystiq)

An extended E3 trailer for Assassin’s Creed: Revelations was released recently, and it looks magnificent, enough to get anybody pumped for it. You can see the video here.

Nintendo announced during their pre-TGS conference that Kid Icarus: Uprising, the highly anticipated 3DS on-rails action game, will not be seeing a release this year, contrary to what was announced before. Its release date has been pushed back to 2012.

They also announced that animation studios Production I.G, Studio 4C and Shaft, those who worked on Ghost in the Shell, Catherine and Negima respectively, will be making animated videos for Kid Icarus: Uprising, and these videos will be released on the 3DS for promotion of the game (Andriasang). Most likely, they will be downloadable via Nintendo Video.

Originally announced at E3, Kid Icarus: Uprising is supposed to start act as a kick-off to a new IP, even though it is the third game in the series (after a hiatus of twenty long years).

Nintendo originally intended to launch it “after E3”, along with Ocarina of Time 3D, but oh well… at least we’ll get a better game.

See one of the only gameplay videos released for the game till now here. It looks pretty good.

Square Enix has delayed Deus Ex: Human Revolution’s release date in Japan to October, just two days before it could get released. Square reportedly uncovered an area in the game which has visual expressions forbidden by the Japanese rating board (via Adriasang).

Square Enix did not elaborate on what kind of offensive content it was, only that it had to be fixed for the game to be released in Japan.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution was, just like last week, was the highest selling game this week. It was also the highest selling game on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this week.

According to reports last week, Human Revolution sold 650,000 units in its opening week. We, personally, think the game deserves all the success it is getting. Have a look at our Xbox 360 and PS3 reviews here, to get two different takes on the game by two different authors.

A new DLC for the game was also recently revealed.

This is what Jaffe had to say.

“Hey everyone, I wanted to make a special announcement for all of my Twisted Metal fans. Because I love each and everyone of you I am making this announcement exclusively to the PlayStation Nation.

Hope you enjoy!”
