Ubisoft cancels Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway |

It looks like Gearbox and Ubisoft's Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC) won't be making it even to its expected (already delayed) release date next year. Xbox Family reports that the publisher has cancelled the development of the title, although they have yet to explain the exact cause for the axing.This announcement is made all the more surprising given that just a few days ago, Gearbox stated that they were readying Hell's Highway's beta build for release. Then again, considering the history of Ubisoft with sudden cancellations, maybe we shouldn't be that surprised at all if this turns out true.
Remember what happened to Half Life for the Sega Dreamcast back then? The game did go all the way to gold status, and in fact already had the full marketing brouhaha, complete with guidebooks sold in stores. And then just like that, it went kaput in 2001.
*Shivers* Oh, but we really hope this one's a fluke! We'll let you know if we can find more information explaining what exactly is going on.

The post is at the top of the page. DuvalMagic is the CEO of Gearbox, and he says:
"I don't remember cancelling the game.
That website is lame. Someone should be flogged and then sacked."
Haha, the website he is referring to is actually QJ.net, for even mentioning this stupid rumor. Check the first page, the topic creator linked to this article on QJ
