Daikatana Delay Confirmed
by Steve Gibson, Dec 16, 1999 6:39pm PSTI've covered this a couple of times before, (story1, story2)but it looks like Ion Storm is now confirming that Daikatana will not make Christmas. On a positive note though the quoted Ion employee (John Kavanagh) states 'finally have a good game on our hands' which is good news.

I don\'t think Romero\'s programming or design have ever really been in question, but the management has been piss poor, and having assholes around like Todd Porter can\'t help.
I\'d like Diakatana to be a decent game, but I\'m not optimistic.
Even if it is decent, it will still get slammed, just because its the late, late Romero game.
\"John Romero\'s gonna make you laugh!\"
\"John Romero\'s gonna make you cry!\"
Heh. All ION Storm has right now is a half-baked game, an arrogant lead developer (or Chief Overlord or whatever Romero calls himself) and an overpimped Playboy centerfold. None of which are worth taking serious..... but all of which can be made fun of!
Heheh. You know how Slashdot.org has that thingy called the \"Slashdot Effect\"? I think the `Shack has the \"Assdot Effect\". Whatever people here start obsessing about makes me laugh my ass off........

Wait... did I Fuck that up?
Now who\'s the bitch?
enough. time to get back to UT and Q3.
I\'m sorry... somebody had to say it. Actually, I\'m not sorry.
Someone please get me another drink.
I smell like ass.
I want them to bake me a Daikatana. John Romero is like a father cellmate to me!
\"No, I don\'t understand youuuu... you say when, but you don\'t follow throuuuu... I\'m not going to be your bitch!!\" *beeeeep*
:( No really, my Christmas really is ruined. I won\'t have time to play Daikatana after the brief Christmas break and stuff.. d\'oh!! Someone bake me a Daikatana.
