Bioshock 2 Delayed until "fiscal 2010"

Earlier this month developers of the massive gaming hit Bioshock announced that plans for the release of a potential sequel would be delayed until "fiscal 2010". Much to the chagrin of many fans, Take-Two did not provide many details about the cause of the delay, other than the desire to have "additional development time to ensure that this title will deliver what its fans expect and deserve" (G4tv.com, 2009).

According to Geoff Keighley's Twitter feed on the subject, "In calendar terms, BioShock 2 will be out during the first half of 2010 -- between Jan - June".

Many gamers believe that this could be a strategic move by the developers to help increase profits later on in what should be a higher-grossing year for video gaming, especially when considering the recent sharp decline in overall sales in the industry.
