Sony London says Eight Days, Getaway 3 not abandoned, new IP in the works

Eight Days - Image 1


Eight Days and The Getaway 3 were supposed to be a pair of PS3 exclusive from Sony's London Studio. Production on both titles ceased last year due to "redistribution of resources and budget" towards what eventually became EyePet.

With the studio now finishing up on EyePet, attention has turned again towards the "canceled" projects. The quotes are there because according to producer and creative art director Nicolas Doucet, both games haven't really been abandoned. Here's what he told GameKult (translation from GameSpot):

I would not say they have been abandoned, just put to one side. Much work had been done. The studio just wanted to focus on its strengths, EyeToy and SingStar. Given the potential of EyePet, priorities have been changed, but the other projects aren't dead yet. Ultimately, the decision [to put those games to one side] has benefited everyone.


So, is there still a chance that we'll see both Eight Days and The Getaway 3 sometime on the future? Perhaps, although it may still take a while as Doucet says that London Studio also has a new IP in the pipeline. Nothing concrete yet about this new game, but Doucet mentions that it's "a different concept, in addition to EyePet."

I *told* everyone when that announcement was made that they weren't canceled. Production being halted =/= cancellation.

In the future..... Could it be GT5 type of future (5 years) or the more closer type of future......

# yea but in gt5s casenarutosaiyan 2009-10-06 14:30
it takes 1 month to create a car and polish it. they record every detail to make it super realistic. if this is also the case with 8 days then i dont mind. i mean look at past games like mgs4 or kz2 that were held back...turned out to be epic.

A lot of people didn't like it (in fact I'm the only one in my group of friends who actually DID like it), and I don't really know why.. I didn't approach the game thinking it was a GTA knockoff, so maybe that's it? Then again I like Kane & Lynch too and no one else I know did

It doesn't look all too spectacular and the mall shot reminds me of Dead Rising .. But I will still play it!

Yea i agree. But the wait for GT5 has been incredible with more delays in sight. Even when the game is given to us it is only around 70-80% completed. But i agree with MSG4 and KZ2 both epic games. Rather have a game which is completed when I recieve it after waiting for 3 years.

Couldn't care less about the other titles, but I'm dying for The Getaway 3.

I played Getaway 1 and it was pretty cool. Really realistic. Didn't play the sequel though.





Eight Days has some potential.
