Downloadable multiplayer shooter Battlefield 1943 will not make its PC debut in September. In fact, it won't even arrive in 2009.

"We haven't released a Frostbite [DICE's game engine] built game on PC, so going into this project we lacked a starting foundation we had on console," Battlefield 1943 producer Gordon Van Dyke told G4TV. "There are also many different and unique only challenges to the PC that has lead to us pushing the release even further to Q1 CY 2010 [early next year]."

On the bright side, the PC BF 1943 will have a few features not in the console versions such as a higher player count (32, up from 24), peripheral support (so you can use a joystick for flying), and ranked server provider hosting. Shame about the delay, though - it's a damn good game.
