Beijing time July 10 Evening news, according to foreign media reports, Singularity Blizzard said in Friday that the shooting game "Singularity" () release time to 2010, the market speculated that the company may also be postponed the release of StarCraft 2, a potentially big sale of video games. According to the current plan of the blizzard, the release time of "Singularity" will be postponed from September to the first quarter of next year. Blizzard said it did so because the company did not want unnecessary competition between the "singularity" and the "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2", a highly anticipated game in the market.  The two games were scheduled to be launched at roughly the same time. In addition, Sterne Agee analyst Avender Badia (Arvind Bhatia), an investment agency, predicts that Blizzard will postpone the release of the October game StarCraft 2: Wings of Freedom. Sales of the game are expected to reach 3 million.  Badia said that Blizzard had postponed the beta test of StarCraft 2, making the game much more likely to postpone the IPO.  A blizzard spokeswoman declined to comment on the possible delay in the launch of StarCraft 2.  Analysts say the cumulative effect of the late release of the singularity and rumours about a delay in StarCraft may be a boon for blizzard, even though it may not be able to sell two potentially hot games in the most important holiday season. Analysts said that regardless of the loss of Blizzard's plans to cancel the sale of the singularity in September, sales of Call of duty and prototype games would compensate for the losses. The prototype was released on June 9, with sales now higher than expected. (Yi Fei)
