The Wheelman Delayed Until March 20th


Despite Midway's mentions that their current fiscal state would not affect the launch of their newest action games The Wheelman, it has been delayed a little over a month. It was due to hit store shelves on February 16th, but gamers looking for it were left with puzzled looks on their heads as they walked out of their local game store. The game features Vin Diesel as the main character and the game runs on the ever popular Unreal Engine 3. Midway did say that there would be demo versions available for all three systems soon, but no date has been set for that yet.

The Wheelman is now set to hit store shelves on March 20th.

The End Is Near For Midway Games



Midway Games are in quite a bit of financial trouble as of late. The Publisher of such games as Mortal Kombat and the upcoming 'The Wheelman' seems to be on a dead end path heading for certain doom. They have reached an agreement to extend their deadline with their creditors until February 12th.

They are in debt around $240 million, but they must pay $150 million in full on that date. Midway have officially stated that this ordeal should not affect the release of 'The Wheelman' for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. The Wheelman features Vin Diesel as the star of the game.
