Games you were excited to play, only for them to get canceled.

[tropicalavera]

from what little we saw it seemed really cool!

 

[Omegapunch]

Final Fantasy Type-0 on Vita, they announced it during some event/show but then immediately corrected themselves saying it was a mistake

I played the psp English Patch a while ago (I never got past the beginning) and the game was pretty impressive for a psp game.

 

[Minterfresh]

The remake of Phantom Dust

(port is free on the MS store)

Unique combat and I liked the storytelling however minimal.

There's been a lot of disappointing cancelled games over the years, but nothing will ever hurt me more than Silent Hills.

I was indifferent about Norman Reedus being involved. Don't get me wrong, I like him as an actor, but I just don't get hyped about celebrities lending their likeness and voice to video games. He was fine in Death Stranding though and I'm sure he would have done fine in Silent Hills too.

Hideo Kojima was an interesting choice as director. I've enjoyed everything I've played of his and I think he would have done a good job as long as he was reigned in. Maybe he'll do some good horror with OD?

Guillermo del Toro was the most interesting choice. He's made some great films and he has a very good handle on things like atmosphere. I was actually pretty hyped when I heard he was involved and I think he would have helped reign Kojima in. x)

Bleh, now I'm getting sad and irritated thinking about what could have been. If P.T. was anything to go by, I think it would have been a quality experience and a quality experience is exactly what Silent Hill needed after the games post Team Silent. I'm not too confident in what we're going to be getting with SH's revival, but I hope I'm surprised.

TL: DR - Fuck you Konami.

It's not exactly a cancelled game but I was majorly pissed when the Fire Emblem Path of Radiance sequel was cancelled on Gamecube and moved to the Wii. Radiant Dawn was actually the reason why I bought a Wii and the game turned out to be a disappointment

I'll never understand why they always do this.
Fan projects (fan games, fan movies, etc.) are a love letter from the fans to their favorite series.
It's like slapping someone in the face for offering you your favorite food.

Exactly. Fan projets are just keeping franchises alive, or even resurrecting them in some cases.

Dragon Quest 4 for PS1, i had 7 and there were images on the back of the manual, at least it was released in japan, so maybe some day we'll see it fan translated.

Nothing will ever disappoint me more than the cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3. Deep Down is somewhere up there though.

 

[Prism_Red]

P.T. as mentioned before.

Daredevil on PS2, once saw an ad for it on magazine thinking it was gonna be released soon, turns out that's not the case.

Steambot Chronicles 2 was planned for PS3, the first one is one my favorite games of all time, it was cancelled due to 2011 Tohoku earthquake.
Damn you mother nature!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe, in an alternate universe, Mega man legends 3 was never canceled, but life never goes the way you want. That's how it is.

I'm still waiting

 

[Evaccaneer Doom]

Kirby GCN. I don't care that it was proto RtDL, it looked cool. Like an updated Kirby 64

Castlevania Resurrection also would've been cool because Sonia would be canon and Castlevania on Dreamcast sounds so interesting. Also Sonic Xtreme obviously, it's shrouded in so much mystery and even had a new character and Sega still hasn't considered picking it back up.

 

[Grumpy_Old_Man]

Bumpy Trot 2, the sequel to what the west got as Steambot chronicles. A PS2 game that is part open world, part mecha combat and customization and part rhythm game.
