Diablo 3 auction house, Inversion and the Secret World

It seems that the word ‘delay' has become somewhat synonymous with the gaming world these days as Diablo 3's real-money auction house has been delayed, as has the gravity defying shooter, Inversion and the classified, Secret World.

Starting things off with the news that Diablo 3's eagerly anticipated real-money auction house has been delayed Diablo 3 Gold once again with the studio claiming that it is currently focusing on fixing all the issues with the game before adding any new features.
A blurb on the official forums stated:
"In light of the post-launch obstacles we've encountered, we have made the decision to move the launch of the real-money auction house beyond the previously estimated May time frame. "
The statement went on to explain that the studio did not intend to release a broken feature and would only release the auction house once all the kinks had been worked out. “As we mentioned in our original announcement, our goal has always been to ensure everyone has the smoothest experience possible when the real-money auction house launches, and we need a bit more time to iron out the existing general stability and gameplay issues before that feature goes live. ”
The game was set to release on May 29 but the studio admits that they have no news to share on what the latest release date is, or as they put it themselves, "While we don't have a new launch date to share just yet, we'll have more information soon. "
However,auction Diablo 3 Gold house is not the only thing that has been delayed as two other eagerly anticipated titles are also set to miss their scheduled release dates.
The first of those games is Capcom's shooter, Inversion. The game was originally set to be released in February before being given a June release date, however the latest reports indicate that the game may sneak in during July.
At the same time, The secret World has been delayed as the fourth Beta weekend for the game is set to identify a number of issues with the game as well.
