GTA V came out in september and it's currently the fastest-selling game of all time, remember? Every delay is a little more polish going onto the game. Do you want an unfinished mess? That's what the delays are being enacted to avoid.

And Duke Forever doesn't count as an example because it was caught up in the rise of console gaming and got stuck in a vortex of technological advance and lazy developing.
