I hate it when a good concept gets butchered, because nobody else can use it.That was a crack in Sega's foundation, looking back. We have so few first-party games; so let's cancel a few more.
Fuck me, they planned on more of these? If that's the case, then they were way too ambitous. Should have been a full-on adventure or puzzle game, one or the other.
I read that somebody approached Kurt Russell about an Escape from NY game. Too bad nothing came of it.
They actually moved resources away from Xenogears to complete it, and both games look unfinished. Thanks, Square.

I still think Watch Dogs 1 had some promise and held a mirror up to society; but since they botched the concept twice, and now they're just ripping off movies wholesale, I don't hold out hope. Between this and CP2077, I have to conclude that AAA devs are unfit for this kind of material.
I really liked Watch_Dogs, but it didn't even come close (in the story/themes part) to its potential.
It should have been about fighting corporations and glowie Globohomo, not Mafiosos and gangbangers (though storming the Cabrini-Greene was awesome).
