While the succinct headline provided an early and inadvertent teaser of the news (see below), GameSpot has now posted its report on the delay of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. Word is that the game is officially postponed until February 2002, and they have included five new screenshots as a form of consolation. Here is a bit more on Electronic Arts' motivation for the game's delay:

While the extra wait might seem disheartening, fans of the series should take comfort in the fact that the decision to extend Allied Assault's development time by an extra four months was ultimately made for the benefit of the game itself. "Originally, we had planned to ship in November [2001]," explains Electronic Arts' Steve Groll. "But the extra time will allow us to exceed the incredible standard that was set by the Medal of Honor Allied Assault presentation at E3."
