Hail to the Chimp delayed to end of June

*Sigh* More delays. This time it's Hail to the Chimp, the arena-fighting, politically-charged, animal-filled cel-shaded game from Wideload studios. Originally set for release at the end of this month, Hail to the Chimp has been delayed a month for "polish." As former QA experience tells us, this is likely a good thing, as there was probably a choice between hitting ship with a certain amount of bugs or delaying the game and getting to fix the bugs. When it does finally hit on June 24th, Hail to the Chimp should hopefully be that much better.

With the right marketing and an XBLA release this could be as successful as Rez HD or N+.

With it's current retail release we'll just have to wait to see whether or not it has legs.

I doubt it.
