And you know for sure this is not the reason, if so how matey?
Yes Colin stated the game was 99% finished but that was a month ago.
I think it's quite possible that SL/Sony whoever "could" be waiting on this new firmware as it contains some of the most asked for features on the ps3 blog since the PS3 was launched. I was not talking about custom sound tracks, this "has" been available for quite some time as a option for devs to use or not use. I was talking about the features for actually arranging online races, GTP5 anyone?!?
This firmware update is massive, biggest yet and the one most owners have been waiting for, no more quiting games to send and read messages for starters, I mean come on, how fundimental is this feature to online gaming?
WO:HD is a big game, a first party game too. The new reward system (trophies) that comes with this update adds gamer points (style) features to games. But games will need to be patched to support it, the only first party game that will support this at the start is Super StarDust (great game for £5 bwt) and that needs patching if you already have it. Maybe they held off releasing partly due to wanting the new features in from the start instead of patching later, that and MGS4 of course (game of the year so far for me btw)
Anyways, I was only posting my thoughts based on what I read, the PS3 blog is a good referance what with it being the offical sony blog.
