Silverfall was released this week and should be sitting on a store shelf right now. The amazing part about this is that the scheduled release date was 3/27/2007. That means Atari released Silverfall a week early! When is the last time that happened? S.T.A.L.K.E.R. was released this week, as well. It, however, has been indevelopment for years and was originally due out back when DirectX 8 was new. Plenty of mention is made of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'s extended development time, but no mention at all (that I am aware of, anyway)  has been made of the fact that Silverfall shipped early. Why is that?

It's the good old hype monster, and not even Gamespot can avoid it. Games like Silverfall take a huge backseat to the big fish. And thanks to the self-perpetuating cycle of it all, the users get Gamespot's news, which gets the news from developers, who in turn look to the users (or the consumers, more specifically) to see what to hype.
