I think its inevitable that reviewers will bring up the extremely long development cycle. However, like Damien said, they should really just review the game based on the finished product. First post here btw. Its a great community.

Not to mention the flame wars that were more entertaining than the game.

Qoute from wiki about elite 4
A new sequel, Elite 4, has been in a lengthy development phase since 1998, and is currently eight years overdue from its original scheduled release date.It is not currently scheduled for release, with Braben stating that full production will commence after the release of The Outsider
this was back in 2006 ps (the outsiders is still in development)

Didn't Fallout hit the 10 year mark in between games? Damn that was a rough crowd of fans waiting so many years. I was watching the Beth boards prior to release. It was pretty brutal. Not much could live up to what they expected for waiting so long.

I remember back when Too Human got released, it got panned because they were expecting so much out of it. I played a little bit of it and thought it was pretty fun. Thats why game reviewers should review the final product. Hopefully that Kevin guy from Gamespot won't be reviewing DNF... He gave Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena a 7.0! >:|

Re: Should the delay be used as part of review criteria for DNF?
Much like has been discussed I personally believe that the only thing that should be reviewed is just the game and its content. The delay shouldn't be incorporated into or have any influence over the overall pedigree of the reviews.

It will though. And to be honest I don't really blame them.

That is all if DNF actually comes out of course. Don't get your hopes up, be pleasantly surprised instead of severely disappointed.

But lets take into account that a lot of these Critics are Gamers. And I bet they are just as much burning to play DNF just as much as we are. I'm sure if this Rumor is True that ounce they play the Game. They forget about the long wait and enjoy it. Sure there going to mention the long wait time. But I bet it would be like. "It was a long wait, but worth it."
