I hate release dates as much as the next guy. Every gamer knows a release date has about as much truth to it as the average article from The Onion. I understand that wanting to add that little extra polish or code is a good thing, but its sad news for gamers; especially, at this particular moment in time, PC gamers.

Mass Effect was released last year for the Xbox 360, and passed with flying colors. The game was supposed to be released for PC’s on May 6^th in North America. Now that date is May 28^th. Even worse for the Europeans, June 6^th is their magic number. According to an official statement, Bioware is working closely with Demirge Studios for a couple more weeks to ensure a quality product is released. The additional time will allow the studio to incorporate more playing-testing feedback, add extra polish and tune the additional features.
