That's what looks bad to me, that they've cancelled things at the last minute because of some [seemingly] obscure issue. As someone else said, they should be attempting to under-promise and over-deliver. I'm sure they're crunching to get the game complete, but it lowers people's opinion when they can't deliver on things like a regular blog. But, better to not release information in a blog that doesn't make it to the game and have everybody screaming that "they promised us [this] and didn't give it to us - liars!". Some games can get away with it just because of perception; this one wouldn't be able to at this point because of how it's perceived

Sure its frustrating, but doesn't mean they have something to hide.

Though I agree 2K always seems to fudge-up scheduled announcements, but maybe the Insight has been pushed back because they are showing the game today to OS & probably a couple of other media outlets.

I said if they were proud of the gameplay, they'd leak some footage of it and you said what you see above.

Why ? You probably knew I was gonna ask why, so you should've just explained yourself after commenting.

To assume a company is hiding something because there are no gameplay videos a month and a half before the game is released is not sound logic. 2k has always had a "different" marketing plan with all their games. This is just 2k being 2k. If Sony wasn't such a big part of CES we wouldn't have any gameplay videos for the Show yet either.

Yea, you got a point there with the CES.. I honestly just don't like how sloppy their announcements become. It's whatever though. I can't change it and it doesn't seem like they can either.

I agree 100% Its so frustrating. I was looking forward the new insight all day yesterday, only to be let down. Again.
