Sony cancels Eight Days and The Getaway

Sony Computer Entertainment has announced that it has cancelled production on two PlayStation 3 titles that were in development at the Sony London Studio - Eight Days and The Getaway.

A statement from the Corporation read as follows: " It has been agreed that production of both Eight Days and The Getaway will cease immediately due to the redistribution of resources and budget.

" This decision was made following an internal review of all games and it was deemed that with the incredibly strong list of exclusive first party titles coming up both this year and in the near future, resource should be reallocated to enhance those projects closer to completion.

" Worldwide Studios has a reputation for innovative and entertaining games, with titles such as LittleBigPlanet, SingStar,Buzz, EyeToy and Eye of Judgement, and will continue to push the boundaries on all PlayStation platforms."

They' re cancelled.

The PS3 version of Red Alert got put on hold today today, too (though not ' canceled' ). It' s like the industry is trying to tell me to return my PS3. Then again I wasn' t going to buy this for the PS3 anyway. Probably going to get it on PC.

I too think ps3 will get a Getaway game, but not Eight Days.

I never expected to see them released. They were nothing but tech demos that clearly surpassed the PS3' s ability. Then we didn' t hear anything about them since.
