They're delaying it becauise they want to make sure it's finished properly. This is a good thing.

Whoever the publisher, it seems pretty obvious that release decisions are made more on the basis of a marketing judgement ie when there is a perceived window in the market which will best suit the publisher, than concern that a game's code is bulletproof. after all no one wants to test too long or too wide if it increases the danger of a leak, which it does as the game gets closer to completion and the pool of testers is too large.
If a game is waiting for that window which may be severaL months away no one wants to 'waste' money keeping all the development team on until then either.
Better just to release it warts and all, let the 'punters' (jeez I hate that term) find the last few problems, than release a game in competition with any other 'blockbuster' or see the game out on the net b4 release date.

Obvious to you maybe but personally I don't take assumptions as fact. That's called talking out of your arse.
Have we not seen several occasions where games have been rushed out before they were ready to meet a deadline and everyone's called for the developer to be hung drawn and quarterred?
Yet when they delay until it's ready they're met with cynicism and calls for them to be hung drawn and quareterred.
Jesus, make your mind up.

The IGN post they link to in the Shacknews post was linked earlier in this thread already, it doesn't say whether the release date change applies to US, EU or both; it's just weird that pretty much no EU retailers have altered their date so far, apart from Amazone.de apparently (Amazon UK still has 2008-11-21).

I don't think we should keep our hopes up for an early EU release. Such things only lead to butthurt Americans torrenting the crap out of the EU version, which I'm sure they know fairly well.

Maybe they have pushed the store release back until December and are planning to release it a few weeks earlier on Steam? If they ship out the DVD's to shops in time for Dec 2 It will almost certainly get leaked a few days earlier as people get their hands on it.

They would never do that. Steam is there as an optionnot compete with retailers.

Just had a friend (who works for a store selling games, DVDs and all that) call their distributor and ask what the release date is.
The reply that it's still on for Nov. 21st (UK); I bet R* simply forgot to notify the EU distributors, because we're not important ;[
