You think gamestop of all companies would willingly refund all the revenues from the preorders instead of sitting on it to collect interest? This is the same company that kept their duke nukem forever preorders for over 14 years! And let's not forget gamestop is the defacto videogame retailer and they do get these type of news well ahead of everybody else. Sony is just following the long tradition of initial denials followed by quiet confirmation -- see psp revision, ps3 price drop, Fumito Ueda left team ico, etc. Also this news shouldn't be surprising considering all the recent drama surrounding team ico and its producer getting fired.

You mean the same gamestop that admitted it was a mistake to say it was cancelled themselves? Best to get yourself up with the current facts before making silly statements.

Nothing more to say. If Sony says it's still being made, it is.

Wouldn't surprise me, considering the behind-the-scenes drama.

But since there hasn't been an official cancellation, not going to jump to conclusions.

lol, seriously.

i can hardly believe i am even interested in games coming to ancient consoles in the 1st place.

do you know what i was looking forward to when the ps1 and 2 were 5 years old? getting rid of them. lol!

everything that comes to the ps3 and 360 at this point that i am interested in is just a bonus.

It will probably get delayed a couple more years, but that was expected, the game is supposed to released for 5 years now and seems is not even at start of development

Im searching on net to find why they left , what was the issue and i cant find what happened. Also now that Ueda left im afraid we wont see any new IP from ICo studio.... Shadow of colossus 2 or ICO 2 or Last guardian 2 most likely. They fired one of the most "unique" brains out there....UEda

The game will not be cancelled. If Sony does cancel it (probably won't) then I will personally finish the game.

I think they would make an official announcement before they outright cancel the game.

But it's possible.

If it doesn't show up at E3, GDC, or TGS in 2012... then it would be safe to say it is vaporware. But canceled? Not till Sony or Team ICO says it is.

I dont think the game will be cancelled at all, but given the situation.... it may be better off if it was cancelled. When the main mind behind the project, the main driving force behind the team is only finishing up the game due to a contract agreement, things have the potential to really suck.

Maybe he will care enough about his involvement with the game to ship the best product possible, or maybe he will not give a damn. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

There's still a chance it may not be cancelled.

This game is looking more and more like a train wreck as time goes on.It may not get cancelled, but I can't help but think there's more turmoil going on behind the scenes than Sony is letting on.Having the designer and the producer leave at the same time is not good.

If someone seriously had a DNF pre-order for 14 years, then...damn, that's some serious dedication! :shock: But for the most part, Gamestop does a pretty good job in letting me know these things...although I did get a voicemail telling me about a midnight launch for the Old Republic, but failed to mention that the mall I had it reserved at didn't participate in it :|.

Why are people excited about this game anyway? Just because of the graphics? Because it looks like a boring puzzle game.

No, it looks like a boring puzzle game to you, for the people who is interested it looks like a good puzzle game, there isn't a way to tell how will it be in the end.

At this point I don't expect it to come out any time soon.
