Mars for Xbox 360 still dependent on publisher support
by Alexander Sliwinski

Rousseau explained that the developer is currently shopping for a publisher and will give a "final answer" on an Xbox 360 version when it has a contract in hand -- or lack thereof. Bucking the trend, Spiders is developing Mars for PS3 because it's a "very complicated platform." Hopefully, the extra work will put it in the company of Naughty Dog and Sucker Punch -- and not that of the ill-fated Factor 5 and Free Radical.

Free Radical isn't that bad, and Haze was alright at best... but Terminal Reality, they have some 'splainin to do

never heard of this game,
but what happened?
did they run out of money developing it on the PS3?
if they don't come up with a PC + XBOX 360 version, i doubt they're gonna sell many copies.

So who is publishing it for the PS3? Do they still need a publisher for that as well?

If the game doesn't suck and also isn't the only game this company has put out in five years (or more), will determine their survival, quite simply

Ahh re-read the article... it seems to make perfect sense to focus on one platform if you might not get a contract ot complete the project anyway.

It really does look awful though. I think looking at the gameplay that wasting time and money porting over to the 360 would be foolish when clearly the game needs a lot of work. In fact I wouldn't release it at all to be honest
