Games are canceled all the time and most deserve to be canned. Unfortunately, there is always a game that deserves a chance to shine and be noticed by gamers, and this title from Ubisoft is one of those. While the footage appears to be a target render and doesn't properly portray what the real game would have been like, the target and goal the game shoots for looked really impressive and it was set to be a PS3 title. Known as Gorilla Nation, the game appears to be a a third-person shooter, with a lot of speed and intense action. Taking place in London during the year 2032, the world is now cohabiting humans and machines. Sadly, this game will not see the light of day and the trailer and screens are the only things people will ever see of this concept.
Why the game got canceled isn't known, but the project was likely too difficult to make a reality and too much of an investment at the current time. With such an ambitious design and concept in mind, it would have taken a lot of resources to make a game live up to this target render.

I'm in Ubisoft. this was not supposed to be PS3 exclusive as far as I can tell you... and the Fanny, person responsible for releasing this info had troubles with the company. Not sure she's relevant source of info when it comes to cancellation.
Footage is fake BTW. Models and some parts of anims were engine rendered.... but many features effects like environment mapping on floor and robot, plus some camera angles in gameplay were not engine rendered.
Don't jump on conclusions.
You most def aren't in Ubisoft.
