Take 2 today reported it's second quarter fiscal 2010 financial results, revealing that Max Payne 3 has unfortunately been delayed again.

This is the third time the game has been delayed, with Rockstar continuing to concentrate its efforts on other franchises such as Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption. Initially given a "Fall 2009" release, the game was soon delayed until the "first half of 2010". Back in December Max Payne 3 was delayed for the second time and moved into a release slot during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 (August-October).

This latest press release simply says "the launch of Max Payne 3 has been moved out of fiscal 2010". This means the earliest date we will see this game on store shelves is November 2010. Take Two didn't confirm if this would be the case, nor if it would be even later in 2011.

We'll keep you up to date with any announcements regarding a more specific release date.
