Release date of Feb 20th

Was that not just the date set for the next announcement.

Looking forward to this game, but it's been in development so long I'll believe it when I see it.

Looks like it's being released in May and will now be on the PS3 and Vita as well as the Wii, 360 and PC.

Who is betting it gets announced as a release for the next gen

indeed, it's looking more and more like some type of Duke Nukem game that gets delayed forever, the official site doesnt look to have been updated for ages. Would be a real shame as it looks brilliant.

They put this press release out during E3:

The wait was worth it, and it’s playable early at E3 to prove it. Head over to D3Publisher’s booth (South Hall #501) to play it on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. Developer Brian Provinciano will be at the show for all of your interview needs, alongside composers Leonard Paul (Freaky DNA) and Matt Creamer (Norrin Radd) to give you an inside scoop on the game’s IGF nominated soundtrack.

This 8-bit game’s virtual cartridge tips the scales at 128Mbits with so much content that it nearly needed the strength of two Power Gloves to jam it into the console. It boasts a massive story mode with over 50 missions, an arcade mode with over 40 leaderboard challenges for instant pick-up-and-play action, a free-roaming mode with cameos and crossovers, and bonus games including an 8-Bit Splosion Man, BIT.TRIP: Retro City, and “Virtual Meat Boy” (put on your red and blue 3D glasses, now). It’s also packed with 50 vehicles, over 25 weapons and power-ups and over 200 styles to customize your character with.

If you think you’re rad enough to outrun the law and carjack the '80s, then lock and load your LIGHTGUN and power up your POWER-UPS , because you're ready to go on a RETRO CITY RAMPAGE !

Release Date: Summer 2012

Price: 1200 Microsoft Points, $14.99

I remember when this was being developed for the NES! Let's hope it emerges from "development hell" soon...good luck.

I thought the reason it's been extended in the past year or so is because the big companies have caught onto it and it's now being released on just about every platform going?
