They were referring to Project Beast. TLG won't be at E3.

Oh okay, that makes sense. (and has TLG been de-confirmed for E3, really? Or nothing has been said yet, so people are assuming that there is no TLG this E3?)

Either way, I haven't followed this game for so long. I know it had development issues, but I don't think it would be cancelled, unless Sony is really deep in the gutter and has to cancel much of their projects.
 
Like, I've known for a while that Gies is a douche.

But this sort of apologist rubbish? That's just shameful.

Maybe it's not apologist. Maybe he sincerely does not understand what was wrong with the way they originally presented the story.

Maybe Gies is that bad at journalism.

76 pages? Holy hell GAF. I can only imagine the amount of pages threads get once the megatons start rolling out during e3.

1 - IGN publishes an article saying that TLG is OFFICIALLY cancelled and citing "internal sources" in the article
2 - IGN updates the title, removing the "officially" from it
3 - Scott Rohde (PlayStation Software Product Development Head for Sony Worldwide Studios America) replies to IGN on twitter stating that TLG has NOT been cancelled.
4 - IGN waits way too long to update the article
5 - IGN updates it but not the title
6 - IGN updates the title with "TLG may be cancelled" and says that one source states that it's cancelled and "anothers" state it's not ("anothers" refers to Scott Rohde)

That's pretty much it I think.


Fucking Hell

I'm loving the title changes and pool changes, from IGN and Neogaf (I'm actually glad they changed the title of their article)

I will say, I wonder if Sony put this in motion?

It is a bit hard to believe that they'd give a go ahead to start calling it official unless they felt it was a very reliable source. IGN is saying their source came from inside Sony.

Maybe Sony did this on purpose? They could be trying to simply make IGN more wary of their reporting on rumors like this in the future after all the bad press they've pushed with some of their stories for Sony, its not totally out of the picture

I believe all of them at this point. Normally I check the first few pages and then skip ahead to the last few pages, but this was one I just couldn't stop reading.

I've been posting here since the first few pages and I haven't even read them all, lol. Good commitment there.
 
Imagine if a release date is announced for the game for this year... oh man... I can't wait to see the look on the faces of the people that work at IGN.

This whole thing is basically the Eklund of the video game world... hockey fans will get the reference.

Yeah, but they might have stirred up trouble just to speed up the hype train.
 
Tales from my Butts? Well, I was accused of the same thing regarding The Order delay.

That's not the point.

Are you saying what you're saying about TLG with certainty, similar to how all the other insiders were calling QB 2015 with certainty, despite the ntkrnl leaks?

Why does everything always happen when I'm sleeping?
On topic, glad to see it's not cancelled, embarrassing for IGN to get this wrong.
