From what I know about the project, it’s only ‘high risk’ because it’s new IP. Seems unless it’s an FPS, a sequel or a minigame collection, it’s ‘high risk’ these days. Let’s hope I Am Alive doesn’t get shelved, if Pat’s Ubi warning turns out to be rather prescient.

Yip. Those “high risk” things are always the first to go.

Seems over for ‘high risk projects’. Bland-o-me-too games, here we come.

We haven’t seen the worst of this yet. Ubi, Take 2, etc: I reckon they’ll all cut.
