In a interview with Kikizo, Eric Boltjes and Angie Smets talked about the cancelled projects Eight Days and The Getaway. It seems that prior to Shuhei Yoshida appointment the project was already scrapped. The news just came out at the same time as the change of power at the head of the company.
Well, I would say Eight Days and The Getaway were already cancelled – we have this process of “green light” meetings… for every project we have these different meetings to see how the project is doing.
But that didn’t mean that these projects were already in production phase as some thought.
Oh no, they were still at prototype phase. That’s the right moment to decide to hold these kinds of meetings, if you do for a game that’s almost done it’s obviously too late to have a look at it!
We hope that PlayStation fans will now have a better opinion about Shuhei Yoshida.
