Hearing Del Toro talk about it on Irrational Interviews got me excited for it. I'm depressed this is a full-on cancellation rather than a transfer.

A horror game by Guillermo del Toro.
THQ Cancels InSane, Rights Transfer to Del Toro
This is what you get for insane drives on unproven hardware add-ons for systems that don't really need them. And yes, I AM thinking about Sega in all of this.
Its too bad. Anytime you hear about a trilogy before it even launches, well you figure the fiction and scope for it is there.
Hopefully another publisher steps up.
Since the rights transfer to del toro, he could shop it around to another studio with a little more financial headroom.
Never say never.

Are we ever going to get any fucking horror games any more? All the old stand bys have evolved int to crappy shooters
Amnesia: Machine for Pigs next year?
I'm quite bummed about this news, but I guess it's the right decision, given THQ's current predicament.
This is the one thing that I hoped wouldn't happen through this new phase THQ is going through. Del Toro is one of my favorite guys on this planet, and it seems like after leaving the insane Peter Jackson's Hobbit project behind, there is a curse on the guy for his work not to be seen.

God sakes. I saw "Rights Transfer to Del Taco" and absolutely lost my shit.
If only. I'd love to see a fast food chain-branded horror game. Especially involving tacos.
I haven't really heard much about this game beyond the original trailer. Hopefully Del Toro will get it picked up by some other company.
Based on the Ken Levine/Guillermo del Toro interview I was pretty pumped for this game. I think that man could help make an awesome game.
