Take-Two Brass Flagged for Delay of Game

Scrubbing Manhunt 2 for a quicker release could lead Take-Two's management into a confrontation with its Rockstar Games division, a move that the company needs to make to better balance its promises to shareholders vs. the creative freedom the Rockstar team demands.

Meanwhile, analysts are also unhappy with the sparse results from the company's much-vaunted, 100-day plan to revitalize and restructure its business. Take-Two is yet to offer any updates on its attempts to sell its ancillary units.

The eventual release of Grand Theft Auto IV and Manhunt 2 may very well prove to be blockbusters, but investors will need to patient and willing to pay the price for the company's missteps until then.
