This upsets me for two reasons;
1) I do not believe it was canceled for the reasons given.
2) We have seen this before.
IMO this is almost the same thing that happened to Ultima IX. The staff was 'diverted' off to work on UO and much later we got what they called Ultima IX.
And then there is Lucas Arts, who decided the PC was not capable of delivering Obi-wan...so they make plans to bring it out on the XBox (and possibly another system?). What am I missing here?!
In the end this is ALL about $$$. Of course, that's what EA and the others are in the business for, but I always thought/hoped some people (such as Will and Richard) might in it for more then just that.
All I can hope for now, is that after Sims Online comes out they go back to finishing this game.
