PS3Life writers wrote: We have some new details and screenshots of this tactical RPG. The expected release date is slightly delayed from "September 2009" to a somewhat vague "winter 2009". It looks in each case that there is a nice RPG title added to the PSN.
Konami has announced that Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment is in development as a downloadable title for Playstaion Network and Xbox Live Arcade and will arrive sometime in September.
Gamervision reports: "In what appears to be an ongoing trend this year, GameStop has removed This is Vegas from their computers. The Midway title was supposed to be released last year, but was pushed back around the same time The Wheelman was. Since then, The Wheelman was released, and until this point, the release of This is Vegas was up in the air. Amazon still lists the title for a November 30th release, but with no screenshots, trailers, previews, or news in the past few months, GameStop is likely acting on more than a hunch.When asked for a comment, WB PR was quick to reply."
Rumors about This is Vegas' demise started to boil over this past weekend when it was noticed the game's SKU had suspiciously been removed from Gamestop's database.
The Examiner writes: "It would appear there is yet another casualty of the downfall of publisher Midway. This Is Vegas, an open-world game based around one mans efforts to keep Vegas from becoming a family-friendly tourist trap, appears to have been canceled by new owners Warner Bros. Interactive."
That Gaming Site writes: "Not much is known about Midway's upcoming open world title "This is Vegas"; this may change shortly however according to Midway's community manager."
