Massive!

Both 'new action game' and 'new roleplaying game' were cancelled?

4 projects for ps3 cancelled
2 for the wii cancelled

is there a reason behind all of this?
a big annoucement is rumored to reach the world of consoles tomorrow
maybe this is related in some ways..

However, you'll notice that none of the the cancelled games have actual names yet. It's possible that Konami had intended to make the games, but decided to go in a different direction.

Are you trying to set a record for the most locked threads?
