Eyedentify:
Where is the title now?
Considering that E3 2005 was over three years ago, one would assume that either SCEI or SCEA would have given us an update on the titles current production state, especially when the PS Eye was released. So far the only update on the titles existence was a post by Jeremy Dunham, Editor in Chief of IGN's PlayStation Team, in June 2007.
"I called up some friends at Sony to see if they knew what's up and the scary part? Nobody there even remembered what the hell Eyedentify was, nor did they remember the trailer from two years ago. If it makes you feel any better, though, that doesn't mean that the game is cancelled. As one of our pals over there said, "If it's coming out of the Japanese studio then we wouldn't find out much about it until it's time to lift the veil.""
Our guess is that the game was an early concept that died and since the hype was going to other titles such as Resistance: Fall of Man, Killzone 2, and Motorstorm...Sony felt there was no need to announce anything official. The balls in your court now, Sony - time for an update, wouldn't you say?
Stay tuned tomorrow for the necxt titles on our list of forgotten games.
Fifth Phantom Saga.
Where is the title now?
It's been a few weeks, but we finally hunted someone down at Sega to receive a somewhat ambiguous update on the matter:
"We have nothing official to confirm on Fifth Phantom Saga at this time," a Sega representative commented.
However, continuing in our conversation it sounded as though many of the people at Sega - specifically, Sega of America - haven't even heard of the title, let alone know of its production status, so we'll let your decide for yourself on what this all means.
Our bet is that either Sega Japan is keeping a tight lid on the title, and hasn't given the rest of the Sega studios an update, or the title has been canceled, and once again, Sega Japan has yet to announce anything official.
