What does 10 years of paternity secrets and wild teens have to do with JP game development?

[EXGN]

The Trashed Guardian.

[JehutyRunner]

The dream is dead. :(

[Trevelyon]

just applied for it.

i iz the last guardian now.

[Neuromancer]

This picture is so full of life, Trico really seems to be a living creature, looking and admiring his creator.

[Zia]

There are two physical releases I've been desperately looking forwarded to (Nintendo stuff is kind of "whatever" until it's out and I'm told it's good), one being BioShock Infinite, the other The Last Guardian, which also happens to be my most-anticipated game ever.

So, whoo-boy, been a fantastic couple days of news out of those camps.

: (

[Eschaton]

[Galang]

This is certainly something scary... but I'll wait before I jump to any conclusions.

Where's this from?

My Neighbour Totoro :)

[Meccanical]

Seriously though I don't think it's over yet gentleman.

Not until the devs say something.

[Lebron]

So Sony forgot to pay the bill for the name? The development on the game must be hilarious

[Katana_Strikes]

Same thing happened to the Versus XIII trademark last year, but no one caught it. SE renewed it not long after.

So the game is dead, thanks for the confirmation ;)

[d[-_-]b]

Why is Shanks crying is the real question here...

[Totobeni]

Where's this from?

My Neighbor Totoro..go buy it and watch it now.

[kayos90]

I hope that this is cancelled. That way at least we know that it's never going to come out rather than being uncertain for the rest of our lives.

[Cipherr]

More like a creature stuck in development hell about to pounce.

[schwabdizzle]

I'm fucking over this.....**sheds tear**

[Majine]

Why is Shanks crying is the real question here...

Is it even canon? Haven't seen that in the manga but haven't read everything.

[Wuthering_Heights]

Maybe they are changing the name and going Vita exclusive.

[StuBurns]

So, whoo-boy, been a fantastic couple days of news out of those camps. : (

Indeed, I expect the next Famitsu to have an interview with Nomura, "How's Versus going?", "No Comment".

Then I'm just going to end it all.

[Rebel Leader]

Why is Shanks crying is the real question here...

He witnessed his captain's death

[Pai Pai Master]

Perfect response.

He did it on the first take too!

[murderofMonkey]

this game will be the swansong of all consoles.



... or it will be cancelled :(

Noooooooooooooooooooo

[Metalmurphy]

That doesn't even make sense. How many trademarks do they have for stuff they don't even use? Even if the game was cancelled they'd probably just keep the trademark. Or sell it, but not just abandon it.

[yn-neko hates a cat]

This picture is so full of life, Trico really seems to be a living creature, looking and admiring his creator.

The Phantom looked like it would be an awesome console too. I'm begining to believe there was never really a game here... just some high-quality sizzle reel to get fans to moisten their Depends.

Since then I think perhaps Ueda's Benjamin Button syndrome has progressed to the point where he is now a prepubescent boy and unable to complete the project

[Khold]

[TimeEffect]

Same thing happened to the Versus XIII trademark last year, but no one caught it. SE renewed it not long after.

Proof??

[jkanownik]

This is meaningless and not surprising.

[Canis lupus]

I hope that this is cancelled. That way at least we know that it's never going to come out rather than being uncertain for the rest of our lives.

Indeed, and so should FFvsXIII, that way we don't get disappointed with every E3 and TGS.

What the fuck happened to Agent?

[ElTopo]

What does 10 years of paternity secrets and wild teens have to do with JP game development?

He's made money in that time and is still around, unlike many others ? I don't know why Japanese game development gets all this shit.

[Kerub]

ABANDON SONY

[flyinpiranha]

What does 10 years of paternity secrets and wild teens have to do with JP game development?

Both are out of touch with reality and unwilling to take ownership of their mistakes.

[shinobi602]

[Kyoufu]

What a waste if true.

[Vesper73]

Where's this from?

My Neighbor Totoro? ... just a guess..

[Meisadragon]

Proof??

It's true.

[Meccanical]

Indeed, and so should FFvsXIII, that way we don't get disappointed with every E3 and TGS. What the fuck happened to Agent?

PS3 games seemed to be cursed.

Seriously, it's the only console with this kind of shit going on with it I think.

Damned thing's cursed I tell ya.

[90TilInfinity]

Same thing happened to the Versus XIII trademark last year, but no one caught it. SE renewed it not long after.

Nice. But isn't there a good chance some random will just buy it now that this is going to be on several gaming sites? Or will they have to state what their intentions are with the name, etc?

[Ainor!]

probably rename it to The Blind Guardian for PS Vita or something

[Chet Rippo]

That doesn't even make sense. How many trademarks do they have for stuff they don't even use? Even if the game was cancelled they'd probably just keep the trademark. Or sell it, but not just abandon it.

Sony probably just forgot about the game.

[Htown]

[Acquiescence]

I was thinking the game must have gone through some fundamental changes that they had to change the name, until I read this...

Same thing happened to the Versus XIII trademark last year, but no one caught it. SE renewed it not long after.

...in which case, the trademark has been laid dormant for so long that Sony need to renew it.

Or the game has been cancelled.
