Wasn't even facts in the first place, it was Kotaku taking "anonymous sources" which don't exist and trying to get people all riled up. Which I suppose worked considering their freaking CEO had to come out and say he's working on it actively.
You can't lay all the blame on Kotaku. Sure, they're the ones who created the rumor... but that didn't stop nearly every other gaming news site from picking up and repeating the story.
Basically, it's just another example of why gaming journalism--all of it--is absolute garbage.
You know, for the comatose, mentally-retarded nitwits who still have doubts about that kind of thing.
il rather have a game canceled than having to wait forever for it.
but to be honest, SE should either release the game or cancel it. i couldnt care less about it anymore. was looking forward to it but lost interest in it a long time ago.
I thank Kotaku for their bullshit rumors! If they didn't do this we would still be wondering if the game was alive....now we know from SE that it is and also that they will be showing it at TGS.
Bloody rumours, wish "journalists" would get their facts straight.
Well it's good to see that its not cancelled.
Damn would of been happy to see this one cancelled
Of course it wasn't cancelled, all this has shown is that people will believe anything they read on the internet.
I've learned my lesson.(goes and deep scrubs Kotaku's existence from his comp)
