WarDevil was announced way back in E3 2006 (or was it E3 2005?) as a PlayStation 3 exclusive but after that, it sort of vanished from the horizon due to certain financial issues. Now with UTV backing the game, developer Ignition have gone back to the drawing board to come up with a brand new game and engine from scratch that should hit the Xbox360 and PS3 sometime later next year.
Atomiqon writes, "There are always games that we wait for, sometimes for years, in eager anticipation before they are finally released to the masses. Occasionally, after delays and long periods of media black-outs, some games get lost in the shuffle never to resurface. Below is a collection of games that seemed to have promise and appeal but were ultimately cancelled or have not been heard from in a long time."
More after the break.
the last guardian
i really need any info about this game
all i need is team ico telling us if this game will come out this gen or the next one
FF versus was literally the deciding point in me getting a Ps3 back in 07. I expected it year after year at game shows and stuff.
Bah S-E....Bah!
That's all I have to say to them.
Please info in January + finish and release before Xiii-3
That and Final Fantasy 10 for Vita and PS3 and please cross buy and play! I love that game and can't play it anymore since my fatty died:( have been dying to play it again on the go mostly.
Edit: Oh and Kingdom Hearts 3 please! Something to let us know that it's coming!
Would be cool if Agent was the game Rockstar was making with all GTA cities combined into one game, and that that is why it's taking so long.
You know what the tragedy of TLG is ? the fact that when it was announced it was easily the most anticipated game of the show the amount of awards that trailer won and all that pre-release buzz which was and still is astronomical, information on the game would regularly be updated.
But nothing information regarding this game has been so sparse in the 3 years it was announced, no screenshots no gameplay video's, developer diaries nothing, this isn't anything out the norm but for a game as high profile as TLG it's quite tragic.
This list needs to be longer there have been way too many M.I.A of anticipated games this gen.
FF13 vs and Last Guardian could very well be the two gen shattering games this gen and they're nowhere to be found and we've gotten nothing but delay news....
What makes you think that they will be the best games ever? Last game that took long to release was a piece of crap. Duke nukem forever. These 2 games are going the same path
i think we willhear some more news about ffvs 13 in 2013 i think last gurdian will launch on ps4 i think getaway 3 will not come out same goes for eight days eyeidentify i think thats vapoware now unles these games arrive on ps4
Still annoys me that Sony pulled the funding on Getaway 3 and Eight Days games for the sake of the Eyetoy and Singstar games!!
If Agent, FF VS XIII and Last Guardian where real and released earlier the ps3 would of been much better off sales wise i bet. Missed opportunities Sony
I struggle to see how it is sony's fault except for last guardian but why release something that isn't ready
Even Sony doesn't know wtf rockstar are doing about Agent
Ignition Entertainment's U.S. publishing branch is on the move.
A spokesperson confirmed to IGN that the company will be closing its Glendale offices in Los Angeles County, Calif. The staff is re-locating to Austin, Texas effective Jan. 3, 2011.
UTV Ignition Entertainment today announce the conclusion of its studio review for the third-person action title, War Devil which will now to be called ‘Project Kane’ and is given the green light despite production previously being holted on the very visceral looking title.
I'd given up on this title months ago after the website went black.
I'm curious if they've even done anything development-wise in the past year or two - I can't remember seeing anything at all (not even the occasional screenshot update).
WTF? they're still working on this damn game? Isn't this suppose to be vapor-ware?
“We have cherry picked from some of the world’s best teams to build our UK studio which includes personnel whose combined previous development credits include Burnout 3, Crysis, Little BigPlanet, and Heavenly Sword. We are extremely excited to fast-track development of Project Kane.”
This game is going to be amazing!
multiplatform - overhyped meh game
The screenshots they used for their preview are hella old. Like from 2005.
Anyways, I found this part interesting from their preview:
"WarDevil takes place in the distant future and we aren’t too sure of what the plot’s all about but I’m sure it’s the same post-apocalyptic war scenario we’ve seen umpteen times till date. We saw a bunch of humans locked in a battle with robotic creatures and I couldn’t help but shake the whole Killzone 2 vibe I was getting with the game’s art style and overall visuals."
Catch that they are comparing Wardevil's visuals to Killzone 2? That's quite a feat.
and yes it's now multiplatform.. They had to make it that way because they have a new publisher, Ignition software ran out of money to cover dev cost, so the game went into the shadow acorrding to the article i read a few days ago. but yes, I'm glad the game is tsill alive...
WarDevil is another one of those games which will prove what xbox360 is capable of developer Ignition made a good choice choosing xbox360 to show case there game.
Multiplat= all potential lost. Just another average game. You disagree? Well then tell me a multiplat or xbox 360 game that comes even close to KZ2 or UC2. You can't then stfu. Not interested in this game anymore.
