In an interview regarding Eye Pet, Sony Studio London’s Nicolas Doucet has confirmed that while the companies focus switched to SingStar and Eye Pet recently, previous Playstation 3 titles The Getaway 3 and Eight Days have not been canned, merely put to the side. He says: “I would not say they have been abandoned, just put to one side. Much work had been done. The studio just wanted to focus on its strengths, EyeToy and SingStar. Given the potential of EyePet, priorities have been changed, but the other projects aren’t dead yet. Ultimately, the decision [to put those games to one side] has benefited everyone.” Interest just fails to subside for both titles which were announced early into the Playstation 3’s life. Nicolas goes on to describe that Studio London have one other game in development but gives no details. He describes it as a “different concept”. http://www.pushsquare.com/7227/sony-studio-london-the-getaway-3-eight-days-are-not-cancelled/ Studio London seem eager not to write off The Getaway 3 or Eight Days. We’re keen to know whether one of them will emerge one day. |
"more or less scrapped"... no sighing needed. I never said they were canned but the likelyhood of seeing them is decreasing almost daily since its been like five years since we first saw glimpses of them. And the likelyhood of seeing them in 2010 is beyond miniscule so they'll need to be brushed of the list anway. That is not to say that other games can't take their place (Resistance 3 for instance).
