GameStop Sends Out Robo Calls for ‘Cancellation’ of The Last Guardian
Posted by Jay in QuickNews, The Last Guardian on December 26th, 2011
A big ‘oops’ happened over the weekend, with a bunch of folks receiving automated calls from GameStop letting people who placed orders know that ‘The Last Guardian’ has been cancelled. Don’t fret, though, as the game is still in development. GameStop just removed it from their list pending an official release date before opening the game back up for preorders. As for previously placed orders? Those are now invalid, so those people should get a refund. GameStop has since apologized.

ICO/Shadow of Colossus Collection and The Last Guardian to be Delayed
Posted by Eddie in Ico / Shadow of the Colossus, PS3, The Last Guardian on April 20th, 2011
SCEE confirmed that the the ICO/Shadow of Colossus Collection is to be delayed from its original release date of Spring 2011 as well as The Last Guardian which was originally set for Holiday/Winter 2011.
Fumito Ueda had this to say:
I announced at last year’s Tokyo Game Show that the release timing of The Last Guardian which is currently being developed would be holiday 2011.
However, to provide more challenging and better quality of content to users and to fulfill First Party Studio’s obligations, I decided to postpone its release timing.
All the members of my production team are working together at a fast pace to develop and release the game in First Party Studio quality.
I sincerely apologize to all the customers who have been waiting for “The Last Guardian” for so long, but I beg for your patience. I will also announce the new release timing at a later time.
