Sega delays two of their titles

Because Sega want to make sure the games meet "quality standards", they have pushed back the release of both Chromehounds for Xbox 360 and Myst for the Sony PSP.

Previously set for May 25, Chromehounds is now due June 29, while Myst's going from April 20 to June 15.


Developed by From Software (Armored Core), Chromehounds is the first next-generation Mech combat game with a strong focus on online play, cooperative or competetive. Battles incorporate tactics, communication and hands-on combat skills to same parts, with players either taking up the role of a Squad member or a Tactics commander.


Myst, on the other hand, will not just be a straight PSP port of the PC best-seller, but feature new contents and scenarios to meet today's visual standards.


If this decision results in more polished, bug-free games, it's certainly a wise one, as especially the PSP has been marred by buggy, rushed out titles in the past.

No the firmware is not the issue, they just fired all the QA people for a quick turn over (more profit on games that have recently been released). Not they realise 3 people cannot do the job of 100. no joke, i used to work for them (sega europe) about 3 weeks ago, and both these games were being tested there. Sega sucks
