Cry On Cries On

From 1up.com comes word that AQ Interactive has canceled the formerly upcoming Xbox 360 exclusive RPG Cry On. Developed by Mistwalker, Cry On was created by Final Fantasy mastermind Hironobu Sakaguchi and would have been his third Xbox 360 exclusive behind Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey.

This probably comes as a blow to all of you looking to save the world from some evil something or other while controlling a party of ragtag adventurers who are almost as deadly as they are cute. I love Sakaguchi's Final Fantasy games like nobody's business (seriously, it's none of your business) and I've just completed final construction on my papier-mâché Chrono Trigger shrine, Blue Dragon just felt like creative bankruptcy. So much so that I didn't even give Lost Odyssey a chance. With the RPG mantle passed to companies like BioWare and Bethesda, Sakaguchi's old-school Japanese style seems a little dated.

Yes, that's sad. But the silver lining here is that the title "Cry On" is now available for some emo band's next album. Any of them will do.
