Saints Row 2 delayed until October

US publisher THQ has confirmed that its upcoming title Saints Row 2 has been delayed, and will now be released on October 14th and not Agust 24th as previously stated.

THQ cited marketing and issues and product quality” as the reasons behind the decision.

Saints Row was released on Xbox 360 in 2006 and received a fairly positive reception from the press, backed up by a decent performance at retail.

The game was very much in the Grand Theft Auto mould – and with Rockstar’s latest still riding high at the top of the charts, perhaps a small delay for THQ’s game is a sensible move.
