Another C4 delay? I wonder when they actually realise when things are going to be delayed, or when they see something is going to cause a delay. Because it can't be on the eve of the deadline every time, surely?
This is starting to remind me of the 7 year wait for Kameo to come out.
Also, game related, I finally cashed in the 2100 Microsoft Points card that my brother got me for my birthday on Dust: An Elysian Tail off Xbox Live Arcade, and it is so very amazing! The handpainted graphics are beautiful, the humour is excellent (*Dust, the main character, comes across monsters* Sword of Ahrah: Use what you have learned thus far. Fidget, the little sidekick: No, mash the buttons! DO SOMETHING!), the story starts off slow but it gradually draws you in more and more and I've seen homages to two other games that I recognise-the Mysterious Wall Chicken is a homage to a Castlevania game and the first Merchant you come across is a homage to Resident Evil 4s weapons merchant.
The music is epic too, I can't get enough of it. Although the difficulty of the enemies from one chapter to the next has a fairly steep learning curve it's likely because it's creator wants you to finish the quests before going to the next chapter, but even so it's not so punishing that you can't get anywhere if you leave a couple for later.
The world is set in Elysium, which is populated by anthropomorphic, crazily coloured mammals (furries, I think someone called them). The main character is a turquoise coloured cat and his sidekick is an orange and white cat-bat creature. There are even some lizards in the world too, but that's as far as I'm getting into the storyline. As much as it doesn't take itself seriiously, it really draws you in to the serious main plotline. It's also not exactly free roaming, but you can revisit areas of the world map that have been opened up through accepting quests at any time, during any chapter.
It's a beautiful fantasy scrolling beat 'em up with swords, magic platforming and rpg elements, like levelling up and a crafting system
Oh and one more thing. There is this game called Star Citizen that is extremely ambitious and is calling for crowdfunding donations. It has reached over a million over it's goal (as you can hopefully see from the link I'm going to post in a minute) but more is the ideal.
The idea is to make a PC exclusive massively multiplayer online persistent dynamic universe. So, for example if someone came and blew up an asteroid, then another player came and visited that same spot, they'd only see the debris left over from the attack. Including an on and offline mode and the ability to play the game however you want, because not everybody wants to be a part of a Faction. The idea is that if players want to be a freelancer, a pure explorer, or a soldier for the empire, they can be! Oh and mod-able content from player hosted servers too.
I've only seen a few of his videos so far but what I have seen is pretty exciting.

EDIT: One more, one more thing, lol.
Star Trek Online has just launched Season 7. I am going to reserve judgement as I haven't tried most things I usually do yet, and the community is split right down the middle between loving it and hating it, but, it seems to have recieved prettier graphics in places and they have a lot of things to fix. Some that they had managed to fix before this Season and broke again, apparently.
