Would PS4 owners even want it?
I didn't expect it to be cancelled, but I'm honestly not surprised that it could happen. Game looked embarrassingly bad every time it was shown. Nothing about it looked right.
This is a huge win for me TBH
(Since I've never bought a MS console, never will)
Platimun will probably never, ever make any exclusives with M.S ever again.
So any if not all Platinum games will go to Sony.
It's a great win for me and Sony.
* Finger's crossed PS4 get this exclusive -just change the name.

Because, speaking as a PS4 owner, I still think the game looks like shit.
Time for Sony to buy the rights and fund them and help them wrap it up. Send in Sony Japan to fix this mess.
Sony will take the risk, gladly.
What the hell is there to play on Xbox? I traded mine after I was done playing Gears 4 and I don't regret it one bit.
Sony's got MS by the balls this gen...what a waste.
I imagine this will be an issue for Platinum.
1.) They have over 200 staff, presumably at least half of which were making Scalebound.
2.) Nier Automata is about to go gold, and Yoko Taro makes it sound like it's not going into sequel mode right away.
3.) Activision killed off their licensed game division, so that's not an option anymore.
4.) They have the Gran Blue Fantasy project and Lost Order, but I'm assuming that was going to take on Nier's staff given Kamiya wasn't attached to it.
Now they need to get a project from someone on a short turnaround for a ton of staff in an era where that kind of thing is pretty hard to do, and they were struggling to get contracts even when that was less true.

So how many Xbox One exclusives are expected to come out this year?

Scalebound was cancelled. I also heard that Kamiya is taking time off due to mental health issues. It's really sad.
Haha, what the fuck?This is a huge win for me TBH

Anyone tweet at Kamiya?
This feels like a huge loss. The footage that they showed was pretty insane, and the game felt hugely ambitious. I'm saddened for his team.
You can't go from 0 to a production size on a new game. There must be cuts in any case.Yeah this is really bad news for a studio like Platinum. It's entirely possible that 50% of their entire staff was on Scalebound and now are just sitting with a 100+ people without a project.
They need to land a major contract ASAP or I expect some substantial layoffs. The bad news for them is that a cancelation of a project of this scope that was this far along in development will be a huge black eye in landing major contract work

That was fast.
Stop. This cancellation wouldn't be hurting nearly as much if Microsoft had a good lineup of games in the pipeline. They don't, and that's why it stings, and that's completely on Microsoft and the person who runs its gaming division.
I don't understand how can there still be Spencer apologists after two terrible E3s and a bunch of studio shut downs and project cancellations under his belt. It's truly unbeliavable.
Spencer you better grab that giant wallet and write some checks. Go studio shopping.. something.. anything!
Just give me something besides ForzaHaloGears
I'm not sure what Yoshida has to do with this either.Why not? Phil is head of xbox, and has expierence in game development, he's in the similar position Yoshida was, and Yoshida got a lot of shit for games that got canned or delayed.

Lets be honest people, was it really looking like a game you wanted to play? I think the presentation demos were showing a game most people were not expecting it to be from it's announcement.
