WET Xbox 360 Version Cancelled In Japan

Kotaku writes: Multi-platform acrobatic shooter WET will only be getting a PlayStation 3 release in Japan. The Xbox 360 version has been cancelled.

According to the official announcement "various reasons" have been cited for the cancellation of the Xbox 360 version. In September, both the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game were released in North America.

They don't buy games for the Xbox 360 in Japan if it's on the PS3

RedDragan5274d ago

They don't buy 360's in Japan. It makes perfect sense only selling the PS3 version.

Microsoft should just pull out of Asia because they are getting nowhere.

Gary Glitter5274d ago

Because the 360 is a dead duck in japan and no-one would buy it for the 360 there its quite obvious.

RedDragan5274d ago

Not suprised since nobody in Japan wants a 360.

Microsoft have been the most unsuccessful games company in Japans history.

Blurs servers were the main issue but would love to see it return.

I'll point out that these games are all from the X360/PS3 era - they've already had HD releases when they first came out. Split/Second and Blur - with the crazy vehicle physics capable today, why would we not want sequels to them?

The other games, all a matter of opinion of course, but... thank you for your ads between every single game. /s

Problem with sequels is that they aren't very likely. Activision dropped Blur like a bad habit, and Disney isn't doing games anymore. So I'll happily take the originals.

Remember Me
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

Alan Wake
Lost Odyssey
Demon Souls

TheDCD2480d ago

As much as I'd kill for a Demon's Souls remake, isn't likely. We'll probably get Bloodborne 2 instead.

Dafuq kinda title is that? These games were already released on HD consoles though...
