Probably over concerns in development. A budget was approved then the game was still not ready over 3 years later. It also apparently underwent some pretty dramatic design changes after the attention it's E3 exposure brought in. This might have concerned upper managment, afterall, Sony have been burned a few times by this kind of thing in the past.
TW re-aquired the rights then had two relatively unknown publishers put the game on all platforms. I wonder if the huge exposure meant they could leverage funding elsewhere, expand, and try to make more money going multi-platform.
