Magicka trailer adorably announces game's delay
21
Few games have announced their own delays as cheerfully as Arrowhead Game Studios' Magicka. The latest trailer for the game -- the first we've seen in many moons -- tells a cute tale about why it's been pushed to "Q1 2011," alongside a handful of gameplay clips. See for yourself below the fold.

Hey!
They made already one official artwork for Half life 2 Episode 3 - like 2 years ago!

Haha, that was pretty neat.
The graphics in this game look pretty good actually - they seem to have a "soft" quality to them, very nice.

"We're sorry, but we've pushed back our release date b/c we spent more time making trailers instead of developing the game."

This game was under my radar until now. Developers with awesome senses of humour really help to endear me to their games, because then I know there is a good chance the game will have a similar sense of humour.

very cute. im sure making that in no way contributed to the actual delay. that probably took one of their guys like 20 minutes to make.

That was brilliant. I think this makes me even more interested in the game than I originally was...

im pretty sure that delaying the game and releasing this trailer for it, has pushed more people onto its bandwagon, i for one am impressed with a game i have never heard about till now.
