It sucks that I'll have to wait longer, but I definitely want them to make it perfect.
I would rather them spend too much time than not enough. *glares at DA2*
Also, they announced this delay so far ahead of the assumed release that it isn't really too bothersome. Its when they delay a game a month before release that it really stings.
Mass Effect 3
Game » consists of 19 releases. Released Mar 06, 2012
When Earth begins to fall in an ancient cycle of destruction, Commander Shepard must unite the forces of the galaxy to stop the Reapers in the final chapter of the original Mass Effect trilogy.
Mass Effect 3 Delayed into Early 2012
As long as they use that time to make the gui on PC version actually work like a GUI on a PC version should work.
I live in the moments between mass effects :( the only thing that would keep me occupied until then would be another red dead :(
I had a feeling this might happen. It sucks, but I'd rather see Bioware make an amazing game late, than an okay game on time.

Yeah, so I can finally romance Kasumi. I wonder if she's available for f/f romance.
Mass Effect 2 was released in Q1 and that was part of why I loved it. Something to play after the holiday rush
Hopefully BioWare uses this time to improve on ME2 with more rpg elements. I can see the concern based off Riccitillo's comments, but it's probably difficult to hit that "sweet spot" between shooter and rpg.
Still, this delay is probably for the best.
I'm actually relieved that this happened. Now I don't feel pressured to complete Mass Effect 2 as quickly as possible. That plus it'll give Bioware more time to polish it up even better.
awesome, this means the game is getting multiplayer. yaaaaaaaaay! i mean what good is a sci-ci rpg WITHOUT multiplayer?
But, hey, more time for Skyrim!
True true true!
" @GrilledCheez01 said:Well there were fewer stats to level, about 5 weapons total, and absolutely nothing to spend the currency they kept giving on. Even if the weapons had the same name w/ "vii" tacked on there were tons, it felt like shops had a purpose (and therefore the world had a purpose)...I just think even if the systems were clunky they added to everything in a necessary way. The second game felt like the first, but hollowed out and smoothed around the edges." Hopefully they sprinkle some depth onto it like the first one had (not gonna happen) "I don't really understand how the first game had more depth.. It had an inventory system that was used for nothing except breaking down items into omnigel and a slightly more elaborate skill tree. I really don't know how anyone could call removing clunky features to be dumbing down..That said, DA2 was pretty poorly received and apparently ME3's been delayed to make it "appeal to a wider audience". Some have taken to assume that means more dumbing down or adding multiplayer... But I'd guess that they've gone back to add more RPG elements."
