    hahaha look at #crusadercrusher being the biggest of the fanboys... dude it's a fact, between ps and xbox....playstation has wayyy more exclusives...meaning more reasons to buy that console if you already have a gaming pc(like me)

    And the whole cross platform that MS is pushing is giving me even less reasons to buy an xbox ( i was looking to buy one once i finished my PS collection, missing the PS1 right now) but why would i spend so much money on a console that has the same games as my PC...and no i do not like Halo or Gears of War.

    Scalebound looked like utter shit when they showed it last time, with a weird combination of action game and huge dragon with a main character that looked like a brat like the rebooted devil may cry dante. A good call to ditch that game.

    I probably wouldn't ever have played the game since I do not own an xbox, however, it is disappointing to hear anytime a major game gets cancelled.

    To me, it's like finding out a celebrity died. :(



    do you mourn when a celebrity dies? do you think that any of celebrities will mourn when you die? people should just stop with that "celebrity" nonsense.

    What mourning? I don't see him saying that at all. And then reverse it saying something idiotic like: 'Do you think the game would cry if you got canceled before release?' 

    Its a perfect analogy tbh, it doesn't affect you personally but it is always sad to see talent and/or creativity getting lost. It has NOTHING to do with mourning or reversing the matter, I don't know how you came up with that nonsense.

    Welp they cancelled Fable Legends, which I was having fun playing and the reason I got an XBO, now this. Lame.

    Oh posting facts makes me a fanboy hmm?  That's cute not once did I say a word about PS Its hilarious all these MS haters are calling the cancel of Scalebound the end of Xbox HAHA.  Desperation is strong in MS haters these days...again if posting FACTS makes me a fanboy in your eyes and the other MS here oh well your opinion means absolutely nothing so enjoy it.  

    You also missed the point with cross platform gaming.  Not everyone owns a PC that can play these games, how on earth is making games cross platform equals a bad thing to you MS haters is beyond comprehension.

    It's not really console wars these are just desperate MS haters and will jump on any opportunity to bash MS even if they have to lie about "Scalebound was the game I was going to buy and Xbox for".

    Current rumors going around is that Microsoft set very unrealistic milestones and when Platinum didnt meet those milestones MS withheld money. When Platinum couldnt proceed due to lack of funds, the game was cancelled.

    If you want more on how MS deals with studios just read up on what happened with Darkside during the development of the "not cancelled" Phantom Dust.

    Nope wrong...Hideki Kamiya and others on his team had to take a long leave of absence due to mental issues associated with the project and personal lives.  This pushed the game off schedule to a point they couldn't recover. 

    As for Darkside from their anonymous employees it's sounds like they were not able to meet the budget or goals set by MS.  So to cut ties with an underperforming studio doesn't sound like the big bad evil company you guys try to make it sound lik, sounds like a pretty sound business decision.

    Somewhere out there, every second, an innocent little child dies unmourned.

    But forget about them.  It's all about the celebrities.  They're the ones with talent!  :)

    Working with Microsoft would give any sane person mental issues.

    Keeping with Microsoft tradition: when the truth doesnt work, invent your own and slander the other side.

    Heres what really happened with Phantom Dust. MS forced the studio to add features that was not part of the original budget. What started as a multiplayer action game became a 30 hour JRPG mid-development because of MS meddling, of course they didnt meet the budget.

    I thought this looked pretty good. Maybe another company will pick it up and finish it.

    We all know Microsoft was/is a shitty publisher. Its funny they are losing this console generation badly so they shut down studios and cancel games because of all the money they are losing. How they treat indie games/developers alone makes me hate Microsoft.

    Console wars on these forums, how pathetic.....

    On the actual, and infinitely more interesting, matter, What...The....Fook? Scalebound was actually the ONLY XONE game I was looking forward too. Hugs to @Grakulen as well, what a disappointment this is. Well, more time for Nier Automata I guess.

    Just another black eye for Platinum games. I hope the don't mess Nier up too. They didn't do Star Fox any favors.

    Star Fox had a LOT of ....lets just say "input" from Miyamoto.

    Actually, pretty much all Nintendo properties developed by a third party has a LOT of "input" from Miyamoto.

    Although I see and agree with what you are saying you are taking it way out of context now. And it most definitely wasn't what I said or implied.

    #Crusadecrusher, how are you not a fanboy when you are fighting for MS with nails and teeth...you want nothing but facts?

    1. Microsoft doesn't hold a candle to Sony when it comes to exclusive...the most well known exlusives for Xbox are Halo and Gears of War...and you can really call those nieche games...that are appealing to a certain audience...both of them same audience...the bad thing here is that CoD, BF, Destiny, The Division, almost every shooter appeals to the same audience...

    Talking about exclusives sony has the most and the best and well known (i'm not including Nintendo here...sure i love myself some pokemon on my 3ds but...when you say nintendo you think Zelda, Mario and Pokemon....before i see the new zelda with my own two eyes...i can't say that it's something new...Nintendo keeps playing it safe...as safe as humanly possible).

    2. Sure, the upcoming Scorpio might be a beast....but it could be better than any PC ever if MS doesn't manage to get some exclusives for that...love them or hate them but exclusives are console sellers....

    I didn't get any of my PS's(today i managed to buy PS1 :D finally, have all 4 now) for the sake of buying something...no no...i buy them for the games they offer that i can't get on my PC....sure lately i've been getting games for my PS4 that i could get on PC....just cause i find it more comfortable..not the point... Exclusives sell.

    3. Do I think Sony is the best company ever? hell no...they suck when it comes to customer relations(from what i heard...i only asked them once question one time and they just told me to ask someone else) We haven't got a good month when it comes to PS+ in like 2 years...and while i love my PS vita...it sucks when it comes to games or exclusives...

    bottom line...stop loving MS and defending them...they are in the wrong most of the time, they need to learn their sh!t, man up...and get thing right...and I will buy a xbox too...

    I'm not a fan boy to any console...i'm a fanboy when it comes to good games, no matter the platform, publisher, developer....give me a good game and i'll be happy.

    Bottom line...this is a forum I am allowed to state my opinion if YOU like it or not.  Personally I am not here to get your approval or anyone else, if you dont like the facts I put out too bad, I really don't care what your opinion on MS or Sony or PC or ME never asked for it.  I find it hilarious how worked up some of you MS hater got over my post here...its going to be ok go find a game that makes you happy if my post dont.
