Infamously incompetent yet strangely successful eroge maker Overflow has delayed its flagship interactive anime Cross Days for a staggering 6th time.
The game, originally scheduled for 27/2/2009, was first delayed to 24/4/2009, then to 26/6/2009, 20/11/2009, 18/12/2009, 29/1/2010 and now “finally” 19/3/2010, making Overflow the 3D Realms of eroge developers, and about as successful.
The huge number of successive delays probably suggests a development and QA fiasco, so just what shape any putative final release takes is anyone’s guess.

I will be highly amused if this tanks/is full of bugs.
fuck >_<, i totally agree...
yo man i do too
Just like STALKER...
well call of pripyat doesn't have that many bugs in it's 1.601 version but there are still some funny ones.
Well I'd call it Cross Delays.
Guess they're debating where to but the NICE BOAT scene.

The Way it Meant to be Rebranded & Delayed
That's just another way of saying
"It will be released alongside Duke Nukem Forever"
Sir, I'd like to give you a cookie.
i lol'd
Now, if only Duke Nukem Forever was an eroge...
Then what about the brothel posted on the 'teaser' screenshots, and the strip clubs with strippers you can ACTUALLY pay in the old Duke Nukem?!
Oh yeah, "Duke Nukem Forever (in Development)".
I wonder if the company can't pay the devs because the company officers spent corporate funds on gambling, and are now gambling like mad to try and "make up" the lost money.
(That's just a random, semi-plausible theory.)
The actual story is just that the head was too much of a perfectionist. Every time a better and newer game engine was released, he just HAD to switch everything over. A specialist that was brought in said that they could have released it years ago and still made millions, but the game was never good enough for that guy.
@Anon 12:14 21/01/2010:
My "random, semi-plausible theory" was referring to the Cross Days management, not the Duke Nukem folks.
Still, you gotta (_carefully_) pick a graphics engine and platform set and go with that, or you'll never get a product out the door.
Ah, that joke doesn't work any more because Duke Nukem Forever is not likely to be finished. 3D Realms just fired the time that worked on it last month.
*team*
i heard the originally game school is shit?
Cross Days Forever!
Forever DELAYED!!!!...seriously I been waiting for this but im getting tired.
They are figuring out how to put in a NICE BOAT...
That.. would be awesome.
Perhaps the setting for the game is a class trip on a cruise liner.
Kotonoha: "After shuffleboard, is anyone up for a game of bowling? I brought my own ball... I guess not, huh?"
Man... not AGAIN! -_-
Nice boat?
If you don't understand what that means.. You're obviously retarded.
No, that guy had the luck of not have watched that shit
none of us on this site experienced the Nice Boat episode, and yet by some grace of god we've heard of it. Strange that, memes spreading and such.
you mean THAT BOAT in School Days?
*shudder* still gives me the creeps....
I dont think you know what it means. So explain it.
How long before the anime adaptation?
Four years at least IMO.
Times that by ten if you want to get the date we'll get this game translated.
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!?!?!?
i'd say a yacht..
A NICE YACHT...
NICE DELAY
Maybe this will be the 1st time the Vaporware Awards would a Japanese Eroge for 2011?
Should this game unable to come out by the end of the year..
i get a shiny penny... i knew it was going to get delayed again -.-
they are obviously aiming for a year where there is nothing else competing for the eroge of the year title...
It will still end up being top seller for whatever year it will be released in. And 2ch will vote it as best eroge of the year.
Dear god.
*dramatic camera angle*
OVERFLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...shame on me for believing they might actually release it after 5 delays I guess...
they are trying to make a nice relationship game with this one right?
Not any hurting,killing involved.
Dear god... why won't they just release it anyways?
I mean, School days and summer days had awful bugs anyways, and I'm sure that cross days is going to be full of bugs, so it'll just be the same, to release it now, or release it 2 years from now.
Hell I want to play this game before the world comes to an end, what with haiti and all.
Cheers;
Niker
Don't you mean 29/1/2010 instead of 2009?
They are just like "Wait for it... Wait for it..." then when there's news that eroge has died, they'll release it and will become a legend for keeping the eroge industry alive.
They should just let it ship without the mosaics.
I don't see a problem on taking how long it takes to get the thing DONE, but this constant push-backs is quite moronic ¬¬
I know it probably isn't the authors fault since hes not the one doing the schedules, but his management team should wise up and stop jerking around.
* ALSO, I love foreplay, but over a year is tad a bit much >< Good thing this is the first time I heard/read about this title ;p
As long as they won't remove Set-chan, I'm fine with that...
Oh, god, Setsuna is... hnng~
