I doubt they would have survived until then. They were running out of money nearing release. It was pretty much release as it was or close up shop.

But hey, it's been getting better as reviews go. Steam currently shows RECENT REVIEWS: Mostly Positive (368) ALL REVIEWS: Mixed (102,079)

if your theory is true i don't blame the makers of the game but I do blame SONY if they told them to release or else, they're a big corporation they could wait,.

That's my take on it. Sony screwed the pooch the whole way. Hello Games is a tiny studio and Sony put them out there with a AAA treatment.

They had a concert, appearances on late night tv, everything. I'm sure as an indie studio it was exciting for them (until the flood), but Sony just saw the $$$ to be made in hype.

also the guy shouldn't have lied, you only have your word once in life, even if sony tells you to lie, refuse.
