Theseis: my big fat Greek adventure game
Two new trailers have been released for Track7's upcoming adventure game, Theseis. You may recall that Theseis was once almost canceled for PS3. That's kind of confusing because the game still isn't being made for the PS3 -- it's currently only heading to PC and 360. But Track7 insisted that the PS3 version wasn't canceled, they merely decided not to move forward with development. Ah, semantics. Anyway, the game is of the adventure genre (the first trailer reminds us a bit of the Quest for Glory series) and is set in modern day Greece-- the trailer above takes place in the ancient past, though. It's been a while since consoles have seen a decent adventure game (the Xbox title, Indigo Prophesy/Fahrenheit is the only one that comes to mind), so we're hoping Theseis does it right. Watch a gameplay trailer after the break.
Multi-platform title Theseis is "dropped" for PS3
It's unfortunate that this bit of news is circulating with so little information included, but word has it that Track7 has "cancelled" their multi-platform game Theseis. The culprit? High development costs: "If Sony were to offer us assistance in producing a PS3 version we would be more than happy to oblige!" This coming from inside the company.Heading to Xbox 360 and PC, this title was also popularized as a PlayStation 3 game. However, they were quick to nip this in the bud with an announcement on their website: "Track7Games would like to clarify that we never cancelled something that did not exist in the first place. We plan to develop "Theseis" for PC and Xbox360 in the near future. As for the PS3, we simply made a strategic decision to not move ahead because we deemed it not probable at this time." So there you have it: Theseis was not "cancelled" so much as it was just dropped in the interests of business. Either way, Sony fans are still holding out for some dedicated third-party support.
