Rock Manager Delayed News

UK publishing deal agreed but unfortunately you`ll have to wait awhile for this one.
Pan Interactive today announced a UK publishing deal with Mindscape UK, who then promptly delayed the release until March 2002.
Rock Manager has created an enormous buzz since it was unveiled at E3 last May.
Not only has it captured the imagination of the music industry, but it has also tapped a nerve amongst computer gamers. Anyone who has a place in their heart for the rock'n'roll comedy movies like Spinal Tap and Wayne's World will want to own a copy of this game.
"Rock Manager has certainly captured the moment," says Nick Naylor, Mindscape UK's Managing Director. "The game is clever, funny and totally unique. Unlike many computer games, the writing is very cutting edge and tongue'n'cheek. We've decided to hold back the release until March 2002 because we want to implement a massive marketing and PR campaign that'll do the game justice."
Rock Manager challenges music biz wannabees to develop a successful rock or pop act. The game features funky cartoon-style characters and different musical styles such as rock, pop, hip-hop, thrash metal, punk, nu metal, electonica and even country and western.
The objective is to recruit band members, record an album and make a hit record - all the things a real band manager would do. Unlike the ultra serious footie manager games, Rock Manager is very entertaining and heaps of fun. The game features nine characters including a shy musical genius who has no charisma, and a gangster's spoilt, prima-donna daughter who happens to be ugly and untalented.
