In an third quarter conference call with investors, Take-Two Interactive confirmed that BioShock 2, Max Payne 3, Mafia II and Red Dead Redemption will not arrive until the 2010 calendar year.

Back in July, Take-Two CEO Ben Federer revealed that all four games would arrive during the company's 2010 fiscal year. This meant there was actually a chance we'd see them by the end of 2009, because Take-Two's fiscal year begins on November 1st. However, today Federer said not to expect the games before January 31st, 2010. They're expected to be in stores by June 30st at the latest (thanks, Shacknews).

Has late winter/early spring ever been so stacked with new releases? February is the new October, I guess.
