Rock Band (warning: Flash) was supposed to be out next week on the 20th but MTV’s now confirmed that the Canadian release date’s been pushed to December 17th. Theory one is that they need to print French instruction manuals/packaging; theory two is that since they can’t make enough to meet demand in the U.S. they’re diverting stock from Canada and delaying the release date here.

I kind of almost hope that it’s theory two, since the original Guitar Hero was delayed a month in Canada because of the French issue; if it’s the French thing again I have to assume that everyone involved is kinda slow. I mean it’s not like EA’s never sold a game in Canada before.

Anyway, we were also supposed to have a Rock Band/Housewarming party shortly after the release, but I guess now it’s just going to be a boring old Guitar Hero 3/Housewarming party.
