Dying Light PS3, Xbox 360 ports cancelled, “just couldn’t run the game”

It's nice to see this particular shoe on the console gamers foot for a change.

Now you know how PC gamers have felt, since forever.

Old-tech holding back the latest and greatest... Such a first world problem. :P

I think this move is just short sighted since the game was still partially designed around the constraints of last gen consoles ... 

If they were going to degrade the game for older platforms then they may as well not bothered to have put any effort for current gen consoles.

I fail to see how this move is rational on the developers part when they didn't even exclude older hardware initially ...

I'm just enjoying the hypocrisy of it all.


They're using the Chrome Engine 6 for Dying Light, which probably has strong roots in Chrome Engine 5, however the Chrome Engine 6 has never seen the light of day on the Xbox 360 or Playstation 3.
So really, the light was already dead for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 before this accouncement, but it was free PR I suppose with this flip-flop tactic.

I should probably stop with the puns before my lights are knocked out.
