Cancelled Games You Wish Had Been Released - I Can't Think of a Good Subtitle

[Vyse Inglebard]

Dead Space 4 got cancelled because EA are cunts. If only.

Next best thing, if you didn't know already:

^Made by the same people who made the original Dead Space.

It looks interesting, but it will never quite scratch that itch with the need to see the conclusion of the Dead Space story. I’ll probably get it though.

I'm honestly more excited for this than I am for the Dead Space remake. Here's hoping that they don't fuck it up and make it an Epic Scam Store exclusive instead of Steam.

Star Wars 1313. I was looking forward to it.
Also, Mercenaries 3. RIP Pandemic Studios.

They were going to release an English translation of Princess Maker 2 in the 90s, but the company went under. It's too bad that I had to wait over a decade later to finally play it.

Isn't that a pedo game?

There's a few offending screens if you've played the Steam version, but I've come across a worse.

Ultima 8's expansion pack, The Lost Vale. Ok Ultima 8 wasn't that good but I had a soft spot for it.
The expansion pack was complete! It was ready to be sent off for duplication. Then EA pulled the plug on it. Maybe it's still there somewhere, waiting to be found, but it has been 25 years and I'm sure it is forever lost.

Starcraft: Ghost.

 

[BiggerChungus]

Opposing Force 2/Ravenholm
HL2 Episode 3
Fallout Van Buren
A few canceled zombie games that I remember the screenshots of but not the names.

 

[Road Work Ahead]

Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance 3. A buddy and I put hundreds of hours into the first 2 as kids. Adding insult to injury, there was even a short teaser after beating the second game.

Finding out it was never coming crushed the soul of 13 year old me.

The original Prey 2 was supposed to be a game about playing as a human sheriff turned space bounty hunter and I'm still upset that that game will never see the light of day.

>gameplay trailer
>its mostly cutscenes with a few scripted clips

Also the lack of 60fps its classic sonyggers "cinematic" shit meaning gameplay will be capped at 30fps, specially since for some reason its also going to be available for the og ps4 and xbone which are close to 10yr old consoles

Still hoping is good, but I wont be surprised if it bombs

Well, after a brief Google search, it seems, that Routine has been one of them for over two years now. Fuck, and from the last post on their website it seems, that game was almost finished, just needed some balancing and polishing.

RIP in space, sweet prince.

Oh, my God, it's alive again, it's on Mick Gordon's channel! Please, release it, for real this time!

Star Wars 1313. I was looking forward to it.

I kinda hate every time this thread gets bumped and someone mentions Star Wars 1313. Everything they've admitted to having planned sounds just so amazing. And all we'll ever have is part of the opening sequence and a couple of concept pictures.

Thanks for posting this, I had forgotten about it. I remember thinking the original trailer looked really cool.

I would like to play it but I am also tired of how millenials think VHS/tapes works.

Whore of the Orient would have had a fascinating setting (Warlord Era Shanghai, a city that was very cosmopolitan with all the big empires amidst Japanese invasion and Chinese civil war, and an international police force) if they had ever made it.

Agent was going to be superspy (ski chases, space lasers, flying cars, etc.) equivalent to a Naughty Dog game.

Both were going to be made by Golden Age Rockstar.

This is a good idea for a thread. My games are the original Baldur's Gate 3 and the Fallout Van Buren. Baldur's Gate 3 hurts the most to me as it was rumored to be almost done before being canceled. I would kill to see the parts of the game that were already done but the odds of that happening is almost none.
