Well positioned sources within the PC software industry inform me the game has been ready for some time. Delays are due to the Department of Homeland Security, who are considering blocking domestic sale of this game for fear it could cause widespread drops in productivity. They're petitioning the DOJ to ensure sales go first to China, India, and Russia so they can observe effects on adversarial economies.
Seriously though, this game looks like it could be the crack-cocaine of software. M-U-S-T S-T-A-Y A-W-A-Y.
