Saints Row: Drive By No Longer Being Developed
« on: May 05, 2011, 05:17:49 PM »

The Saints Row spin-off seems to be dead in the street.

Earlier today THQ stated "We are not developing Saints Row: Drive By." With this statement it is safe to assume that the Saints Row spin off that was to be released on the Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network has been cancelled indefinitely.

A Nintendo 3DS release of Saints Row was planned, but since the 3DS version was to be the same game as the XBLA/PSN release, Saints Row will not be coming to the handheld anytime soon. When asked for more on the Nintendo 3DS game information, THQ replied they "had no further comment at this time."

Saints Row is an action-adventure style sandbox-style video game that has found a following on Xbox 360.

Maybe THQ realized that since proper GTA's don't sell well on portables, the chances of a GTA ripoff doing well was even lower.

Oh yeah, I know I have 2 sealed copies of that game.   1 is for trading.  But people who collect Amiibos?  They really have a problem!
