The two long await titles from Take-Two are being pushed back for more marketing and better launch window.  During a conference call with financial analyst today Take Two chairman Strauss Zelnick announced that Red Dead Redemption would launch May 18th in North America and the 21st in other areas.  Mafia 2 on the other hand is being pushed back to Take Two’s 4th quarter, which happens to be the Fall.  And these delays might not be the end, since the new Fall Launch window of Mafia 2 puts it smack in the middle of Take Two’s Launches of L.A. Noir, Max Payne 3 and Civilization V, the company’s CEO Ben Feder mentioned also that with their current fiscal outlook they could push one of these titles back to next year.
