THQ Inc (THQI.O: Quote, Profile, Research) is delaying the release of its "Saints Row 2" video game by two months due to product quality and marketing considerations, a senior executive said on Wednesday.

The delay to Oct. 14 from Aug. 26 means the game will be released in THQ's fiscal third quarter instead of the second quarter, but will not affect the company's financial outlook for its 2009 fiscal year, Bob Aniello, senior vice president of worldwide marketing, told Reuters.

"Saints Row 2", an action game featuring gangsters roaming an open world, is a key part of THQ's bid to turn around its business, hit last year by sluggish sales of other titles.

Too late, they already gimped the 360 version to keep the stards happy.

I'm kind of glad when things are delayed because there's too many good games coming out and I can't even get close to playing them all. 

I think I was saying the same thing a year ago as well.

i wonder if they can turn a shitty broken game into a halfway playable mess in 2 months

Saint's Row is fucking horrible.

After playing GTAIV, my eyes hurt when looking at SR2. SR2 looks a generation behind.

Totally NOT hyped for this.

Cool. More space for Too Human. It needs it.

Saints Row 2 might not be the prettiest thing to look at, but the gameplay is tons better than GTA
