PS3 game cancelled because of development cost?

Take this for what it’s worth, but PS3 Land is reporting that Track7Games have cancelled PlayStation 3 development on their upcoming multi-platform game Theseis. The site claims that “the developer blames the problem on the exceptionally high cost of developing for PS3.” We have all heard the rumors of how hard it is to develop for Sony’s next-gen machine, but could this be the first time a developer has actually come out and straight up said they had to stop a game because of the PS3′s development costs?

According to PS3 Land, Managing Director Vicky Valanos told them the following: “If Sony were to offer us assistance in producing a PS3 version we would be more than happy to oblige!”

    Apparently they never intended to develop it for ps3 to begin with. Supposedly there was some tomfoolery surrounding the article saying they axed the game. Here is the link I found through google reader
