Forums - Microsoft - Cry On canceled!!!

Sad. The premise was great, and I think it had a ton of potential. But I also had the feeling for a while now that it was getting the axe, so it's nice to finally know.

Finally, I can't believe people kept bringing this game up, it was vaporware for so long!



^QFT

About time they went out and outright said it...

Sad, i liked lost odyssey and blue dragon...



That sucks. :(



Oh well, I wasn't the slightest happy or excited for this game at all. Let alone know anything about this game.

I would and could understand it, Mistwalker did Microsoft some help on providing some Japanese support to let other Japanese developers know that its possible. By the looks of the beginning of the 360 life. We saw Blue Dragon and then Lost Odyssey after those it was all Microsoft's money and its talks that got Namco and Square Enix on board.

With the help of those other Japanese developers, actually the ones that matter. Mistwalker is on the verge to sinking to the bottom. Microsoft was clearly funding or should I say helping Mistwalker through development and seeing as how "Cry On" isn't going anywhere (no new screen shots, no videos, no press info), they just gave up and no more money for this project.

Hopefully this doesn't effect Lost Odyssey 2 or Blue Dragon 2 since those were some good games, even though I haven't played the first ones yet.



That's too bad. This was one of the few games I was looking forward to on the 360.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

There was no need for MS to have Mistwalker anymore. Aside from Lost Odyssey, they didn't have a hit, and MS has SE and Namco under their thumb (read: checkbook), so it's no reason for Microsoft to pay for crappy JRPGs, when they can pay for good ones.

Mistwalker was this over-hyped company that delivered two 360 JRPGs that were okay, and 'good', but nothing astoundingly good like the upcoming SO4 or FFXIII, and then they tried to do the DS route, but found little success. And given how much MS has been trimming the fat off of their studios, it was bound to happen.

Goodbye Cry On, whatever you were.
