Prototype, Beta, pre-release and cancelled games

[MasterEn]

megaman legends 3.

 

[bjork]

True Fantasy Live Online

 

[Anonicus]

Scalebound

THIS

Scalebound looked so fucking sick actually, Apparently Microsoft wanted to do all sorts of shit instead of letting platinum games make it however.

This would have been a very well received game if it ever came out. Still so fucking mad to this day.

 

[Снегопад]

Prey 2.
Everything about it sounded dope.

 

[PSVitaForever]

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

 

[Clippy]

That Warcraft Adventure Game.

 

[Mr. SyS]

Every fan project that gets Nintendo'd.

 

[YuriSukiSan]

.. I know there's more than a handful (some have already been mentioned) so the first that comes to mind is Stargate: The Alliance!

 

[Deleted member 25310]

...Enough said.

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.

The suits see them as competition.

Yeah...
Companies, instead of trying to get better than the competition, try to find ways to make sure there's NO competition.

 

[MistHunter]

Megaman mania (for gameboy advance). only to know, years later, released the gamecube version ": (
At the least, played megaman 1 to 6 on my own...

Remember Sadness for the Wii?

Yooo this looks like so my thing. Nice shout! I’ll give it a look!

I remember there was a lot of buzz around it for a very brief moment in time and then it got cancelled.

Huh… quite sad (not sad for my backlog though wink wink)

They could try licensing deals but that requires effort. Shooting them down is easier and costs nothing. That and yeah, it could be a pride thing. Can't let the developers look bad in comparison.

Remember Scalebound?

This game was such a big deal, stores in Kuwait playrd trailers of it long after it was canceled ?

 

[ThatPatrickGuy]

Star Wars 1313, it really looked like star wars was gonna commit a portion of itself to engaging with more mature content.

 

[Abecero]

The Chocobo Racing sequel for the 3DS, I was real excited when I first saw it announced at the 3DS' launch, the PS1 game is a childhood gem of mine, got real down when I found out it was cancelled.
Then Squeenix, some 15 years later or so, come up and basically bring it back for the Switch... but I really wish they didn't, ugh.

Remember Sadness for the Wii?

It was cancelled because the devs figured it would never top the sadness of reality.
Just making a stupid joke

 

[tropicalavera]

from what little we saw it seemed really cool!

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.
