Why 2K Games Pulled The Plug On The Wii's Civilization Revolution

These days, if a publisher's not actively working on something Wii related, stockholders are asking why. With Wii's momentum showing no signs of slowing, would a company actually cancel an in-development Wii title?

2K Games (and by association, their owners at Take-Two Interactive) did that last week, when IGN reveald revealed the console version of Sid Meier's strategy series, Civilization Revolution, was no longer coming to Wii, but still on for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS.

What they didn't announce was why they were canceling it, so MTV Multiplayer got in touch with Firaxis Programmer Scott Lewis to figure out what happened.
