This has already happened to me and it's changed how I react to hype all together. I used to be the kind of guy who would just eat up all the press releases and every scrap of info, even if it was useless info like what color some guy's shirt would be, about a yet to be released game that I was psyched about. And then along came a Wii game called Sadness. For years I awaited its release, years. I bought a Wii when I heard about this game. That was literally the biggest reason for me to buy the console was to play this game. I mean, sure, things like zelda and smash bros played a part in the decision too, but I'd never been this excited about something that I'd never actually played before. Sadness was going to be the best game on the Wii ever, and everything I'd heard about it strengthened that belief in me. When I'd hear something new about it I'd do a little happy dance. Even if they'd just said "it's a wii horror game with multiple endings and they are all sad" I'd have been sold. But in the end, all that Sadness brought me was exactly that, sadness. Because they canceled it. They could have made butt-loads of money if they'd released it, but right when it seemed like its release was right around the corner, I got the news that it would never be coming out. Maybe there were signs along the way that I missed, I don't know, but it was a total shock to my system. I even cried a little. It felt like them canceling Sadness was taking something away from me personally. Ever since then, no matter how cool a game may look, until it's come out and been reviewed, I can't get all that hyped up about it. The old me would look at the screen shots of the next Wii Zelda game (for example) and would have squealed, but now I just shrug and say "I'll believe it when I see it." So I know all about the pain this subject discusses, perhaps a little too much.
