After the tragedy of the 8.9 magnitude earthquake in Japan numerous games have been delayed. These games were all set for release in the next month and this has caused huge problems for the games companies.

The publishers include Sony, Konami, Sega, Irem, Capcom, ans Square Enix. Square Enix have announced that Final Fantasy servers will be offline for at least a week, however players will get a free months play because of this. Also Konami have shut down their Metal Gear servers until further notice. Irem was expected to delay their game 'Awesome faceisaster Report 4'. The game is the fourth in a series which had two Playstation 2 games and one Playstation portable game, however the Playstation 3 version will not be released now.
Sony has also delayed 'MotorStorm: Apocalypse' in Japan, the game was meant to be release on March 17, but it has been moved to a currently unknown date. As well Sega has delayed the release of 'Yakuza: Of the end'. On top of all this Capcom has moved the release of their downloadable content for 'Marvel Vs Capcom 3'.

This has been devestating for a lot of Japanese game companies, and everyone else in Japan. I hope Japan can fight through this disaster and can soon get back on it's feet.

Yes, but that is just one game, this thread is about multiple games, which means more information.

A lot of well known games such as Final Fantasy XI and XIV (MMPORG) have had their servers shut down, and the game cannot be played. Everything in Japan has come to a stand still. God be with them!
