Rumors of every kind!

The Last Guardian Is coming! No it's cancelled! No it came out of the closet and is getting married to Agent and they're both adopting a young, cute Half-Life 3!

You get a rumor! And you get a rumor!

 

[Spongebob]

If this is false then IGN should become a banned site.

 

[BruiserBear]

If this is true Sony has a lot of explaining to do. Their execs said things even in the past year that it was still very much alive. I believed them because I didn't think they'd lie.

It's hard to imagine right now they kept working on the game all this time, and NOW it's cancelled? Really?

 

[Stimpack]

I mean, I'm just going to come right out and say it. Chances are it would have been a pretty shitty game by now anyway, right? Right?

 

[DNAbro]

Meh. I'm sure it still exists, and they'll bundle the beta with Shenmue III.

Same day release as half-life 3.

 

[Boogybro]

IF it is canceled. That's probably for the best. There is no way that it would live up to they hype. I mean, look at the disaster that was Duke Nukem Forever and how long that... thing... took to release. It's unfortunate that this had to (possibly) happen. I was looking forward to this. I was looking forward to 8 Days. I was looking forward to The Agency (Sony's Spy MMO). I was looking forward to the PS3 release of The Getaway. I'm still looking forward to Until Dawn (I fully believe that will come out on PS4 with Morpheus support).

 

[kinoki]

This is just part of the hype train, right? They'll blow us away on Monday, right?

Regardless, I'll wait until Monday for confirmation until I believe anything. This can just be part of a marketing campaign for all we know. If TLG is absent at E3 we can pretty much consider it dead. Until the I'll quietly believe Q4 2014!

 

[sparkeysam]

Well this is disappointing, not really surprising though.

 

[Endo Punk]

Ueda needs to fuck off from development. Can't believe he couldn't get the game out despite managing to accomplish SotC on PS2. Did he just get a permanent mental block or something!?

 

[10k]

Like wtf was Ueda trying to accomplish so hard that the PS3 couldn't do it and still can't get it right on the PS4?

 

[Q8D3vil]

I wonder how much money did Sony spend on it.

 

[JABEE]

It no longer says officially cancelled. It's Happening.

 

[Vyrance]

I refuse to believe.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

They better hand me a ps4 at this theater event so I can dry my tears.

I have a weird feeling going into this E3.

Could just be the guacamole I ate.

 

[Qblivion]

rip in peaches. hopefully team ico survives and starts work on a new game that will actually be finished in a reasonable time.

 

[ChawlieTheFair]

It's still a rumour actually. IGN now reports rumours guys lol.

As does the OP, rumor should have been somewhere there.

Shinobi says he hasn't heard anything about it :/

https://twitter.com/shinobi602/status/475478538368602112

Well that's some good news I guess.

 

[BananaSprinkles]

So the rumor originates with some random Russian website, at which point IGN-Russia picks it up, and then the US version of IGN picks it up?

Seems legit.

 

[Rivitur]

I am in denial it isn't true damnit!!!

 

[vinnygambini]

IGN's tweet says official

Thanks Wario

 

[Stratosphere]

WELP

 

[Jaeger]

So, nothing confirmed? lol

 

[aly]

If true, then waiting for it has been a journey by itself. I've grown and changed since then and it just might be that time to let go and find new guardians and projects to wait on.

Yea, there's no excusing Yoshida this time.

This is utter bullshit if true.

 

[I-hate-u]

Shinobi says he doesn't know about this rumor. Someone needs to page other GAF insiders.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Putin is just saying this to lower morale in America before he brings about the rebirth of the Soviet Union and invades America as was his birthright.

Believe not his propaganda!

 

[kurahador]

If this turns out to be false, IGN is officially banned!!! FOREVER!!!!!!!!

 

[MiamiWesker]

Holy shit, just holy shit.

 

[Creaking]

But secretly, we're all hoping that it's just a ploy to get us to lower our guards, so they can hit us with a megaton at the end of the show.

Especially since Ueda quit years ago but has been on contract ever since.

 

[Wagram]

I suppose we know what TLG has been renamed too: Fluster Cluck.

 

[Owwari]

I feel alive and dead at the same time. First for being part of this historic moment, and lastly because a part of me just died inside.

Goodbye

 

[Loudninja]

I see no reason for the project to go on, hopefully thy working on something new this time in a timely matter.

 

[zerodayPopbot]

hey, always have Ico and Shadow of the Colossus... think I'm going to play those instead of watching e3 now.

 

[MrCookiepants]

This is like the last Game of Thrones episode all over again. I am destroyed. I believed in you Sony/Team Ico/Ueda. All this time I never lost faith.

 

[JayEH]

Imagine what will happen if IGN is wrong lol.

 

[BigTnaples]

Crazy. Never played any of their games though I do own shadow of the colossus Hd on my PS3, never booted it up though.


Still this looked interesting. I wonder what will happen to the studio now...

 

[Ragnarsson]

I can't believe this...

Spoiler

I actually can. Which pains me.

 

[Takamura-San]

Even if it isn't true, I hope this forces Sony to make a true statement about the status of the game.

FFXV is next.

 

[TimeEffect]

But guys, how cool would it be if this was all a twist... and since Project Beast was spoiled... Sony ends...WITH TLG!

ಠ‿ಠ

 

[Secret Owl]

That's too bad. They should have gotten this out of the way months ago, not days before E3.

 

[Karl Hawk]

Feel like doing this:

You just wasted your bloody 399$ for nothing, I suppose.

 

[LumpOfCole]

Team ICO used to be a colossus but now they're just a shadow

well, they cancelled santa monica's game which they've been working on for quite a while as well...

 

[jond76]

Maybe they are showing their conference in theaters so they could film the audience reactions to the cancellation news Paranormal Activity style.

Spoiler

Or maybe they'll unveil it and film the reactions

 

[Chance Hale]

 

[Jaykay]

The worst news

 

[sphagnum]

Like wtf was Ueda trying to accomplish so hard that the PS3 couldn't do it and still can't get it right on the PS4?

4D gameplay. Only Kutaragi understood.

 

[Poetic.Injustice]

They're not going to announce the cancellation at E3. If it's cancelled they'll wait a few weeks and then announce it.
