Two Worlds II pushed into spring of 2010
After oodles of 2009 delays, this is one that really hurts. We're talking about a "getting bit on the finger by Charlie" level of pain here. Are you braced? OK. Two Worlds II -- which is not Two Worlds: The Temptation -- has been delayed by SouthPeak until the spring of 2010, according to GameSpot.
The bigger question, of course, is, "What joke are we going to make about Two Worlds II being delayed?" We've gone back and forth, because we're worried about being too mean. We soon realized though that if you picked the joke, we wouldn't have to feel so guilty. Do our dirty work right after the break.

No, that's just Sarah Palin.

I don't get the Sarah Palin joke.

IT's REGIS

It's because it was a stupid attempt at trolling and starting a political flame war.
Leave, troll!

Well... assumptions get us nowhere.

The original was the worst game I ever played. And I mean ever.
Making a sequel is like giving a deaf person a stereo for X-mas. What's the point?
VaultBoy @ Nov 16th 2009 3:37PM
Worst game ever? Really? I thought at best and worst it was ...MEH. Not great, not terrible, but I did play it for twelve hours with little accomplished storywise. And to be fair the voice acting was atrocious.

"Unfortunately," said Two Worlds II project lead Dum Bass, "Fat Bastard has left the project leaving the SouthPeak toilet completely devoid of concept art for our modellers and texture artists"
INTERNET SUPERHERO @ Nov 16th 2009 10:49AM
I have a better quote.
"Two Worlds delayed until 2010. The last game tester said this game was similar to drinking Satan's ash-filled tears and to whoever tries to play this game. May god have mercy on your soul"
Filthy Assistant @ Nov 16th 2009 10:51AM
They should delay it until 2012 so it can be destroyed along with the world and its retarded creators.
Katana Master @ Nov 16th 2009 11:02AM

Matthew @ Nov 16th 2009 10:55AM
Two Worlds II has been delayed until 2010 to coincide their launch with their DLC, "Two Worlds II: Worlds".
Filthy Assistant @ Nov 16th 2009 11:03AM
Two Worlds II: Worlds, Too
Nytemare457 @ Nov 16th 2009 5:46PM
Two Worlds II: Two Worlds, As well

"Two Worlds II has been delayed until 2010 to give the team extra time to polish out the technical aspects, most importantly, the framerate. We're trying to get it down to around.......5fps this time."
Katana Master @ Nov 16th 2009 10:59AM
Who in their right mind would fund for this game? Two Worlds was horrible.

If it weren't for that thing in the centre of the image, I could've sworn that was an island of Myst (those games originally developed by Cyan).

Two Worlds - Today, SouthPeak and that farmer in the opening cut scene finally resolved their contractual differences, paving the way for completion of Two Worlds 2: Electric Boogaloo after a devestating delay caused by the contractual holdup. The disagreement stemmed from the land that SouthPeak provided the farmer for payment, the same land seen in the opening cutscene as well as throughout the game. The farmer, a critical character in the first production, alleged that wheat grown from the land couldn't be threshed and provided evidence by showing the opening scene, wherein his scythe went through the ghostly wheat, which refused to be cut. He also alleged that the main hero of the game frequently napped for free in his fields and left mounds of dead bodies the farmer had to clean at great personal expense.
Roy L. Screw, the farmer's legal council from Screw, Jerk, and Fraud, stated, "We are aware the prior contract allowed for such behavior, but my client was unaware of the magnitude of the impact and we refuse to let our client in on the raw end of the deal."
Officials from SouthPeak claimed the prior contract was sufficient, but due to mounting delay costs, finally settled for an undisclosed amount and what the farmer claims to be a fair contract.
The farmer and a hunch of other characters you don't care about will appear in Two Worlds 2: Electric Boogaloo this Spring.
THE WICKER MAN (BWF) (GT: Dalek Prime) @ Nov 16th 2009 3:37PM
Are you sure the name of the firm wasn't Screw, Thompson, Jerk, and Fraud?
LaughingTarget @ Nov 16th 2009 4:16PM
Used to be, but Thompson isn't legally allowed to practice law anymore, so he was kicked out.
jb @ Nov 16th 2009 11:32AM
Game delayed thanks to a tester proving all achievements could be achieved.
AsherR [Planeteer | Power of The Hoff] @ Nov 16th 2009 11:32AM
Here's another headline.
"Two Worlds II will likely be delayed time and time again as vaporware until the next Elder Scrolls game releases for the developers to completely copy again."
At least that's my impression of the first one. :)
koehler83 @ Nov 16th 2009 11:38AM
Keep pushing...
hfm @ Nov 16th 2009 11:57AM
I must be the only one that sorta liked Two Worlds. I don't think I ever saw any bugs, and it was standing on the precipice of being something good. I have high hopes for Two Worlds II.
rahmenxnoodles69 @ Nov 16th 2009 11:58AM
Two Worlds was undoubtedly the worst game I've ever played..
It was like they tried to clone Oblivion but failed horribly and ended up creating this unholy abomination of a game that can't maintain a reasonable framerate even though it has visuals that look like someone just rubbed shit all over the screen..
And the dialogue.. don't even get me started on that hilarious bullshit..
How in the hell do games like Two Worlds ever manage to warrant a sequel?
Kyte420 @ Nov 16th 2009 12:13PM
Yawn..... none of those jokes were funny in the least bit almost fell asleep reading them. For the record I am kinda looking forward to this game part one was fun to myself I'm hoping they tighten/redo the fighting system and tighten up the gameplay on level 8 nah but seriously they need to work on the difficulty...Remember the good ol'' days when you didn't have the internet telling you how a game sucked or played but had to relie on the box or a friend or even how much you liked the subject matter that influenced your game purchases..............

WAT
The Dark Wayne [Planeteer: Power of the Batusi] ATDFs Financier and Batman @ Nov 16th 2009 1:16PM
oh wait never mind, dude's got 420 in his name, it all makes sense
THE WICKER MAN (BWF) (GT: Dalek Prime) @ Nov 16th 2009 3:33PM
You are as high as a kite to suggest that...oh wait...nevermind your silly name says it all. "Before the internet told you" Then do not read this site.
ElektroDragon @ Nov 16th 2009 12:30PM
Ignorant fools, this game will be fantastic. The first game was a LOT of fun if you gave it a chance. They're fixing all the problems with this one, and they have a talented TEAM working on it. I get their newsletter. Shame on you, Joystiq!
The Dark Wayne [Planeteer: Power of the Batusi] ATDFs Financier and Batman @ Nov 16th 2009 1:15PM
no, no it was not a lot of fun. At all. No matter what circumstances. Ever.
Taco_Hell @ Nov 16th 2009 3:45PM
Yah! Shame on you Joystiq for judging what this game is gonna be like by the previous iteration! It's not like they'll say things like "We're fixing all the problems, and this time, WE HAVE TALENT!" in their newsletter to just hype the game like they did with the 1st one. Nope, they only say things because this time, they're super serial.
tolski @ Nov 16th 2009 12:51PM
Is it just me, or is that capture looks allot like the CryEngine2.
THE WICKER MAN (BWF) (GT: Dalek Prime) @ Nov 16th 2009 3:36PM
The first one was Cryengine as well. It was so much more powerful than crysis that our modern consoles and pcs could not process all the awesome. The graphics, gameplay, story, voice acting, and fun were all heavily affected.
VaultBoy @ Nov 16th 2009 3:42PM
We know it doesnt stand a chance in during the holiday quarters, so lets throw it into the fray of the rapidly embiggening clusterfuck of early 2010.
Phil @ Nov 16th 2009 4:44PM
While I can't say the PC version was the best game ever it was at least decent.
It had flaws still, like broken or missing dialogue, cheesy story, etc... but at least you could swing a sword from horseback.
Totally worth the
Phil @ Nov 16th 2009 4:46PM
That was supposed to say 'less than 10 bucks that I paid for it.'
Damn comment system.
