I hadn't even thought of that. It just might be due to MS's parity clause. If the XBO version is drastically inferior to PS4 version (lower res and framerate) then it might have been rejected by their Approval process.


Well, i will just leave you with a few points here.

1.  Microsofts parity clause is only with the id@xbox program.  Since this isnt any indy game, it doesnt apply.

2.  The parity clause is only about timing, not graphics and what not.

3.  Benv has already said this is bs...

Do you imply the game was cancelled because it ran too bad on Xbone? Studios want to make money off their games so they will mostlikely put much effort in their games so they sell on as many systems as possible. Of course WiiU is no good example but as we know so do other studios that Nintendo games sell a lot better than 3rd party games on Nintendo systems.

"Foreshadowing" something based on Spiderman is way too much brain spent into this "issue".


Spiderman isnt the first game, so its not like our worries are unfounded. If Microsoft plans on posing a challenge to Sony they need (much like the 360) to change peoples opinions on superior multiplats on their console they must get that cloud to bump up the quality of their games and fast. Microsoft is generally good at squashing bad press.


What other game was cancelled?


I wanted to ask which other major game was cancelled but then i serious'd.

Stream of the "canceled" Xbone version, it's up on the Marketplace.

I kind of hope MS did kill this and force a delay. Holy fuck it looks even worse than I expected it to.

Screentearing is horrible.. and does Spidey clips throught the walls?

Maybe Activision is testing the water for download only first month releases.. and then with retail releases a month or 2 later..

Man, does this look bad...

But seriously, it has to be canceled... What's with all the worrying, "just the beginning", the foreshadowing STAGE told us about in his usual MS rants? And this is only the start!

I am now really worried how people who were worried before react now since this master-piece of video game art still is on Xbone...

I am glad that this didn't get canceled, because it makes me feel better about my decision to not buy an Xbox One. For about a day I was worried that it could actually be a desirable piece of hardware.

More reason to get an Ouya
