Faith and a .45 is officially on hold

Not having been in the limelight for a long time, rumours about Faith and a .45 getting "canned" started to appear.

A couple of days ago, we decided to contact Deadline Games in order to find out about the current status of the game. As they kindly let PS3 Attitude know, the development of Faith and a .45 has been paused, due to the lack of a publisher.

Interesting news from a great site ;)

Araceae5573d ago

Not good. I was looking forward to this game, so hopefully it will find a publisher but I could see it getting canned.

MeEdIC5573d ago

I was really excited when I first saw it too. I might even say that I'm still excited about it.

I want to believe that it will find its way to production - sooner or later -.

DolphGB5573d ago

You'd think that there would be a whole bunch of publishers out there that would grab this... wouldn't you?

MeEdIC5573d ago

How is it possible to see - pardon me for the cruelty of my words - so many atrocities getting released, when games such as Faith and a .45 can't find a publisher?

I mean, what are publishers thinking?

Araceae5573d ago

Glad to hear I wasn’t the only one looking forward to it. It seems a lot of people don’t even know about this game, as I never hear it talked about.

I think the economy is probably playing a big factor in some games not finding publishers. There seems to be a number of games that lost publishers recently, but some of them have found new publishers already (like Ghost Busters). I really hope they can find a publisher, but I’m not going to get my hopes up too high. However, if it does find a new publisher (come on Sony, you can never have enough games) I will be very excited.

MeEdIC5573d ago

Without a doubt, the economic crisis is having an impact on the videogame industry as well.

As for the 'Sony part', I could easily imagine Faith and a .45 as a PlayStation 3 exclusive. It has that 'prestige' and 'atmosphere' that characterize many PS3 exclusives (Heavenly Sword).

This sucks the idea of the plot sounded pretty cool. There are very little games that are set during the Great Depression. Yet alone make it the main thing. So this is sad news because I really thought Faith and a .45 sounded cool. Plus the name of the game sounded cool too.

Its a pity that Chrono canceled...

MrSwankSinatra3709d ago

One of the worst moves by square, what the should have done is brought that team in officially and have them continue to make chrono Resurrection.

Gotta hate cancelled games but sometimes it is actually quite okay, if a game is shit etc.

brianunfried3971d ago

I was very disappointed when I heard "Darkwatch 2" was cancelled.

Myst3971d ago

Warhammer and the Agency both made me cry a little again.

FrostyZipper3971d ago

I don't see Possession on that list anywhere.

Dr Pepper3971d ago

I still find my self thinking how great Project Offset looked. Sigh...

4 cancelled PS3 games we want to see on PS4, but probably never will

Mike Harradence of PSU.com writes:

"Now that PlayStation 4 has been blown wide open (well, sort of –we still don’t know what the box looks like), it’s got us thinking about the myriad of games that we’d love to see on the platform. While there’s the usual suspects floating around in our wish list, such as Uncharted, God of War, Resident Evil, The Last Guardian, and Assassin’s Creed etc. we’ve also cast our thoughts over some of the PS3 titles that sadly never saw the light of day.

"Wouldn’t it be pucker if these lost gems could receive new life on Sony’s high-powered next-generation machine?"

Dam has it been that long since we've seen eight days? Ps3 launch and now the ps4, I'm doubting that game might ever come out, shame they shelved it because it looked to be a big seller

ichimaru4064d ago

In retrospect 8 days looks very do-able on the ps3

Samus HD4064d ago

If a Game like shadows of the colosus would be released..
than an automaticly BUY for PS4

JKelloggs4064d ago

Agent? I know that hasn't been cancelled, or spoken of for a while.. Hope they can shed some light on it soon.

USMC_POLICE4064d ago

Agreed I'm hoping they just delayed it for ps4

HOO-HAA4064d ago

After they've finished GTAV I hope, I bet it's multiplatform too!

GABRIEL10304064d ago

The Getaway, I enjoyed the first game, was great.

USMC_POLICE4064d ago

They were both great did you try the second one?

cleverusername4064d ago

It was brilliant, loved the Hammond cameo in LA Noire too!

CaptainYesterday4064d ago

I remember hearing that The Getaway is just put on hold while focusing on other projects but it seems like it won't come out at this point it's a shame a lot of people were looking forward to it. Also what about Agent, Heat, and inSANE I hope those games happen!

Kingnichendrix4064d ago

They cancelled it in the end because it was too expensive

HOO-HAA4064d ago

Getaway and Eight Days were canned for EYETOY, EYEPET AND SINGSTAR!! STILL winds me up to this day!!!
