PC Gamer said:Bulletstorm 2 canned, original hurt by poor port and piracy on PC
It’s a tough industry for a new series. As someone who very much enjoyed Bulletstorm’s gorgeous, bombastic shoot-outs, I quietly hoped that People Can Fly had done enough to earn a sequel. Sadly, it’s not to be. Epic Games president Mike Capps has told Gamespot that while Bulletstorm was “very critically successful,†it was merely “good, but not amazing†in the sales department. “I think EA was hoping we’d do better,†he says.
Capps mentioned that some initial design work was done on Bulletstorm 2, but it’s since been spiked in favour of other projects. He also admits that Bulletstorm underperformed on PC, and gives a couple of reasons. You can probably guess the main one. It begins with “P,†is an anagram of CRAPYI, and rhymes with “biracy.â€
“It didn’t do very well on PC†he said, “and I think a lot of that was due to piracy. It wasn’t the best PC port ever, sure, but also piracy was a pretty big problem.â€..........

Sigh, another "fun" and "unique" FPS out of the industry.
PS: Sorry, if I created a double thread.
