Steven Spielberg’s upcoming video game project canceled

Back in 2009, Steven Spielberg and EA announced plans to work hand and hand on a new video game, with the codename LMNO. Well, just like Spielberg’s career after 1999 (zing!), the project is dead.

A former developer for EA gave a statement during a 8-4 podcast about the projects status:

I don’t know exactly what was the thing that made it fall apart. I’m sure anybody you ask is gonna tell you something a little bit different, but it didn’t end up ever taking off.

I’m sure we were all excited to see what impact Spielberg would have made upon the gaming industry. I guess for now, the answer is Boom Blox.
