It looks like you'll need to wait a few extra months to play the next "urban" gang-fare violent video game on the market, besides Grand Theft Auto IV. Reuters is reporting that THQ has announced they're delaying the sequel Saints Row 2 from it's original August 26, 2008 shipping date to polish the game and likely prepare a bigger marketing campaign.
Here's what the developer had to say on it.
"Product quality is a huge driver of a game's success and this move allows us to polish the game. The game is done, it's about polish," said Bob Aniello, THQ's senior vice president of worldwide marketing. The move was also attributed to a better marketing campaign planned. "There is a bigger trend within the industry to build big marketing events within a bigger time window. This allows us to lead up to the holiday timeframe."
