There's a difference between something having a long development time (Dune) and something taking a while to come out (Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time).

Minor delays usually make a game better, but huge delays can be questionable. Uncharted 4 will be better in April than it would have been if it came out in fall 2015, like it was supposed to originally. The Last Guardian, on the other hand, was supposed to come out Holiday 2011, and was in development hell for several years. I'm more worried about it than excited (though I am still excited).

It's simple; Ratchet & Clank was delayed from 2015 to 2016. Sly Cooper will be delayed because of that film.
