Eight Days, The Getaway 3 Both Canned
Two projects from Sony Computer Entertainment London have gotten the cut. Neither game has appeared in playable form, but the trailers they had sure looked neat.

Sony announced today that it has canceled the development of the PS3 titles The Getaway and Eight Days. Both of the titles were under development at Sony Computer Entertainment London. A Sony U.K. representative confirmed to CVG that these titles are not on the back burner, and will not be resurrected.

"It has been agreed that production of both 8 Days and The Getaway will cease immediately due to the redistribution of resources and budget," said Sony in an official statement. "This decision was made following an internal review of all games and it was deemed that with the incredibly strong list of exclusive first party titles coming up both this year and in the near future, resource should be reallocated to enhance those projects closer to completion."

"Worldwide Studios has a reputation for innovative and entertaining games, with titles such as LittleBigPlanet, SingStar, Buzz, EyeToy and Eye of Judgement, and will continue to push the boundaries on all PlayStation platforms," concluded Sony's statement.
