Like Smith said in Ashes thread, " We have finished the development but it's upto Codies to release the game! ", it is the same thing happening here. Though the game has been finished interms of development, EA doesn't want it to release.
- May be they(EA) are not satisfied with the end product?
- May be, they would be thinking for a better 2010 version rather than 07-polished version so called ICC WC 09.
who knows!
One thing which I wonder is the first option... If EA is not satisfied with the end product, will the developers be still paid? Or since they are not satisfied, they will reject it without paying the developers the money!
