September zou een drukke maand worden qua games, met vele potentiële toppertjes. Eén van deze toppers lijkt echter later te komen en de release op 29 september niet te halen.
Ubisoft gaf haar verwachtingen vrij en daarin is tevens een opvallende zin te lezen met betrekking tot Splinter Cell:
quote:
For the company's second fiscal quarter (July-September), Ubisoft expects to rack up sales of 78 million euros (about $99 million), a significant shortfall from the 110 million euros it took in for the second quarter last year. Ubisoft's expectations would no doubt be higher, but the publisher also confirmed that it has delayed the release of Splinter Cell Double Agent to "the end of October," pushing it out of the company's second quarter entirely. Instead, Ubisoft will have to bank on the performance of new releases Open Season and Enchanted Arms, as well as Pirates of the Caribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow for the PlayStation 2 and PC, which it is publishing in Europe.
Het lijkt er dus op dat we niet eind september, maar eind oktober met Sam Fisher aan de gang kunnen.
