The hits just keep coming: ESO possibly delayed for console

It is still too early to tell if ESO will be a success. I have consistently tried to remind angry gamers that all MMOs have their problems during launch. I admit to some personal frustration, having experienced the horror of 'Final Assault,' while remaining hopeful that ESO will continue to improve.

Now, however, there is even more uncertainty. Several sites including Polygon, Joystiq, and CVG are reporting that the console version of ESO will be delayed by six months.  CVG reports that there is a screenshot floating around Reddit of an announcement Bethesda posted, then quickly took down. Polygon also reports that Bethesda is banning users who link this image.

I don't quite know what to make of this. Could it be a hoax, or did someone at Bethesda make a serious mistake? If the console release is in fact delayed it would be a major hit for a game that is already struggling in the eyes of many fans.
