Xbox has officially announced that it and Obsidian Entertainment are delaying much-anticipated RPG Avowed. There had been rumors circulating about the delay for some time already, but Xbox officially confirmed them today in a statement. While neither Xbox nor Obsidian feel bad about where the game was at in development, there was concern that it would be launching amid too many other high-profile releases.

It’s hard to describe Tomba! in a way that feels sufficient. It’s a non-linear action-platformer starring a chirpy, pink-haired jungle boy who does whatever menial or bizarre task he stumbles across while managing a blood feud with a gang of evil pigs. Tomba interacts with his world in two ways: Stuffing random objects into his pockets (or mouth) or biting things and/or people. It’s an early example of a commercially released indie game with a lot of ideas we’d see develop into modern gaming conventions over time. It’s weird, it’s wacky, and it’s one of those cult classics people out there absolutely adore.
