GameStop sparks Last Guardian cancellation scare

Too long to wait. I mean come on!!

Notice whenever something completely false happens, the companies responed to the rumor with a real answer But when the rumor is something that could spoil what they were planning before it's announcement, they all of a sudden never comment on rumors or speculation

Any news about this game?? Like for FF vs XIII. Those 2 are part of the main reasons why I buy the Playstation!!

If it canceled we would miss one of the best Phenomenons in the game's industry

Good old GameStop. I don't even live in the US and even I know the store sucks :P

seriously, ps3 is so cheap, it's even cheaper than vita :p. on topic though, I'm glad it wasn't canceled. ICO and Shadow of the colossus were one of the best games of all times.

This company takes forever to make games. It is what it is but they are usually worth the wait

@noah364 You can buy a used PS3 for cheap. Look it up on ebay or amazon

This looks awsome. It's the type of trailer that makes me wish that PS3's weren't so EXPENSIVE!

Silly me. I thought that the great dane was the biggest type of dog.

gamefront. reports that cancellation rumors aren't true.

Too much ambition, too much planned = money ran out? - i sure hope not, its sad that companies that just churn out games fast based on a template will make more money than projects like this.

ahhh don't fret, this game will be out as soon as 2032!

I hope you all understand that without Fumito Ueda and Yoshifusa Hayama, this game will not turn out to be the same. Even if Ueda is still "finishing" it in freelance, he will not dedicate the same amount of attention to this project. And needless to say, future projects from Team ICO will not be the same. They made 2 great games before so I kind of wander what the real reason for severing their connection with Sony was...

Poor planing + Megalomaniac Ambitions = Unfinished Game

This game is taking to friggin long COME ON SONY Don't you want to make money?

I bought a PS3 late in 2010 because I thought the Last Guardian will be out in early 2011. I hope that the long waiting game will be worth it. I'm a fan of the developer's previous works; ICO and Shadow of the Colossus.

@Elann2008 Skyrim was in development for 4 or 5 years before we even had an announcement. From playing the masterpieces that were Ico and Shadow of the Colossus I can assure the only reason it's so hush hush is because the creator truly takes his time perfecting his games. Patience is key.

I blooming well hope it's not cancelled! This game was one of the main reasons I bought a PS3 last year and I was gutted when it was put back further. Granted, other PS3 exclusives and Blu-Ray are also as good a reason as any for owning a PS3, and the HD remakes of Ico & Shadow Of The Colossus are a real special bonus. But it this game is cancelled I'll be [pun alert!] in-console-able...

Wow, if this game is cancelled, Agent must not have even started dev (this game has been a news jugernaut compared to the "Working on Agent" then nothing from Agent)

Thank heavens for that! This game looks absolutely stunning. Hoping it's out sometime next year!

phewwwwww !

@Elann2008 We can hope it isn't Duke Nukem Forever. That game was god awful. Some games are better off just being dropped, but this isn't one of them :P

I wouldn't be surprised if it was truly canceled though. This game has taken way too long.. it's not an MMOG. And it isn't Duke Nukem Forever.. so what's the excuse? After 3 years, I tend to think a game has issues in the creative process. In 2 years, I expect massive news and marketing for big title games. The Last Guardian has been too hush-hush for my liking. Being too secretive hurts you more because then some gamers will soon forget it among the huge cloud of available and upcoming games.

Thank goodness! I really don't want this game to cancel. It is one of my most anticipated game!!

Can't wait to play it!

Duke had more power as vaporware... last guardian... I think it will get pulled and released as a vita title.

Hope it gets finished. Also, Duke would have sucked anyways.

Don't worry. Gearbox'll finish it.

@orestes1981 Duke should have stayed there. Man did they butcher that game.

This game will never see the light of day.

wow,didnt they announce this game when ps3 was released or sth ? i bet the hardware can't run all those details on the creature

i hope they relese it as soon as possible before cancelation

Nice graphics but I hope there's more to this game then caring for over-sized pets.

This is going to be one of the best games ever made.

guaranteed release day purchase if we don't support games like these we will only be left to play grand theft auto 40 and halo 67 we need variety like this in the gaming world hopefully this game does not get cancelled

Most interesting game of this generation getting canceled? I highly doubt that will be the case, but Ueda and the director should have finished this and I would love to buy this as a day 1 purchase, glad it's not getting canceled.

@mdboomer Like Duke Nukem Forever??? ;)

Just add it to the Vaporware list.

Sure we all r excited for the last guardian and sure ico and shadow were awesome games, but I don?t understand people who say things like ? I got a ps3 for this game? or ?this game is the only reason I bought a ps3? Really ???? What about MGS4, Uncharted trilogy, Sly 4 All the R&C games Killzone 3 , and many more ?. Really ?? the last guardian is ur only reason ??? theres more to the ps3 than only 1 game much more...

Some comments refer to some grand conspiracy between Gamestop and Gamespot to kill this game... really? Really? Does anyone honestly feel as though a gaming website and a game selling retailer has ANYTHING to gain from a AAA release being cancelled? C'mon now. Use your melon for good not evil.

i seriously dont know the story of this game..

@stick2zero As much as I'd like to believe that, it has me really worried that it could go into development hell.

The longer it takes, The more awesome the game will be i hope.....

EDIT: actualy it's this: ." What exactly were Gamestop hoping to achieve by doing this? Bait Sony into pushing it to a release? Nah. Convince customers not to invest in the game and instead use their deposit to buy pre-owned games? "- lhomity

The official word: "It's not true. The game is still in development. It hasn't been canceled."--A Sony representative. . AHHHHHHHHHH *sigh* . I can rest easy now, seriously this has been my nb1 MOST EXPECTED game of this generation. . It has the potential to be a timeless classic. Hopefully the departure of Ueda and Hayama didn't destabilize the dev team. .

Let's wait and see. It will be cancelled, trust me. If games like these could sell at the market like most of brainless FPS out there, it would have been released 2 years ago.

That just sucks and hopefully they still continue this unque game really

I can't tell you how much I want this game to come out, SotC was one of the greatest games I've ever played, this developer is capable of so much and it sucks that so much crap has been flung their way lately.

I want the game, but I'm not gonna hold blind faith towards it. Either side can be telling the truth, Gamestop might be right and it's cancelled, Sony might be still developing it. But neither side is giving any definite proof. Someone already said it, but if it comes out great, if it doesn't, water under the bridge. At least this time PS3 owners get a Tales of exclusive like how the 360 had Tales of Vesperia...
