Matrix Online Now Set for Jan. 05

Sega and Warner Bros. have pushed back the North American release of the MMORPG, "Matrix Online," from November to Jan. 18, 2005. According to many sources the companies preferred a simultaneous world-wide launch of the game rather than a two stage release. However, those that pre-order the game will get access to a closed-beta test starting on Nov. 18 and will get a special feature for their characters: hyper-jump. Hey, as long as bullet-time is involved, how can it go wrong (sarcasm)?
