It cant be. This game looked great, and I have been waiting a good while for it...... Just read this from Plaet PS2.



  Run Like Hell Cancelled?
08:46 | Musashi | Comment!
In their latest edition of \'The Spot\', Gamespot have speculated that Interplay\'s action-horror title RLH, or Run Like Hell, has met an untimely demise due to Interplay\'s financial state of affairs.

"It looks as if Run Like Hell, or RLH, might become a victim of Interplay\'s financial woes. It hasn\'t been officially cancelled, but we aren\'t holding out much hope that it will be released. The developer could be shopping it around to other publishers, but based upon our limited time with the game I wouldn\'t lose too much sleep if it\'s never picked up. It had some interesting ideas, but from what we\'ve seen thus far its ambitions outstripped the technology. But don\'t completely write the game off yet, you never know."
In case you didn\'t know, game publisher Interplay was absorbed by European publisher Titus last year and has been bleeding like a stuck pig ever since, despite strong sales of Black Isle\'s various RPG\'s (Baldur\'s Gate, Icewind Dale).
It should be noted that Interplay\'s RLH page still shows a Q3 release date, so you never know...

 Well there is always The Thing...... hopfully

Weird animation.. (seemed like he was moonwalking)

At least http://www.videogames.com had a preview.. the vids looked pretty neat, it could\'ve been a decent game. C\'est la vie.

All the gameplay clips seem to be of the same ole been there effect

the grpahics are nice and all but I just haven\'t seen anything of recent that makes the game stand out amongst its peers
