Games you are bummed never came out
- Thread starter Tregard
- Start date
Star Wars 1313 and Amy Henig's Star Wars
Both axed in the same decade, I just wanted an Uncharted style Star Wars game T_T
Prey 2 is another and I'm surprised nobody has decided to just copy all of that and make it their own. There's a surprise lack of bounty hunter games.

The feels...Guess.
Deep Down
as for games that were announced but never released.
Oh man. Yea, I really enjoyed that game. I actually replayed it recently in 4k on my TV on my PC and it still holds up great. Looks phenomenal.
A lot of star wars ones
Damn that could have been really cool. A lot of the games I'm sad never made it are Star Wars. Kotor, Battlefront III, 1313 etc.

Lily Bergamo did come out. They just changed the art direction from generic anime girl with bandages to something actually interesting.
yes, really sad times for Star Wars fans.
at least we got Rebels, Rogue One and Jedi Fallen Order...
I like LET IT DIE and played it a lot, but I still wanted to see something from GungHo that wasn't a "Suda-style" edgelord punk game.
A sequel to Simon the Sorcerer 2 that used beautiful pixel graphics instead of whatever Simon the Sorcerer 3D became (still haven't beaten it)
Final Fantasy Versus XIII
Those trailers are still etched in my mind and are still awesome. I liked FFXV but Versus XIII looked better

Project Phoenix
It had a pretty successful Kickstarter with a lot of names attached. Then eventually it came out that they hadn't even hired anyone. I still check on its page from time to time because I'm a masochist. It's mostly apologizing and refund demanding. Kinda hilarious because I remember the person in charge of the account being salty about Mighty No. 9 doing so much better. Saying something to the extent that they were gonna be doing so much more with so much less.
White Knight Chronicles successor
Level 5 keeps saying they're working on it or that something is gonna show up soon but I just keep dying inside whenever there's a Level 5 announcement 😭😭😭

Yeah Battlefront 3 would have been amazing at the time, all of us working on the BF1 Conversion Pack really wanted it but the announcement just never came. Think I finally gave up hope when they announced Force Unleashed 2 at one E3, that was the last chance.
If you want to play around with the assets, the PSP game Battlefront Elite Squadron was seemingly reworked from the PSP port of Battlefront 3 and features a bunch of maps and even some of the campaign. You can definitely tell where they ran out of road as it were (the red armor woman from the concept art just showing up with almost no introduction is a good example of this) but outside of getting a later build than the one Borman got, it's your best bet.
Funny thing, the game even had a trailer that was obviously meant for BF3 at one point:
Yep. Tried it, seen the trailer - I was incredibly steeped in this stuff back then haha.
But yeah, it's all just a super-bummer. Despite my enjoyment of DICE's take on Battlefront - it definitely seemed like Free Radical had more of a grasp on what made those games special - and they wanted to take it in the logical direction (ground to space battles) whereas DICE has done their own thing.
Dang looks pretty interesting and low budget too (don't mean that in a bad way. Just hopefully is a good sign they will actually make it since the budget won't just drain company). I would love to play a game like that. I feel like Japan horror has the best backstory to their hauntings (vengeful spirit, killed and filled with hate so soul turned into something awful), whereas American horror is usually just demon from hell or something.
^^^ I loved FE 1&2.
Dead Space 4, although it was no more than a few ideas.
Visceral had some cool ideas for Dead Space 4
When it comes to Dead Space, what dies doesn't stay dead for long. Dead Space 3 launched in February 2013 and EA has sa…

They announced an open world Alan Wake game that didn't come out??? I never heard anything about this!!!
Mine is the untitled Bomberman 64 spiritual sequel that was being developed for the 3DS.
Based on what I've read:
Based on what I've read:
- Spherical bomb explosions return from Bomberman 64
- Elemental bombs return from Bomberman 64: The Second Attack
- Bomberman would have a health bar in single player
- Four-player multiplayer would likely use the + shaped explosions
- Bomberman would unlock robotic upgrades for his suit in single player
- Single player levels fully 3D akin to the 64 games while multiplayer would be static overhead camera.
Deep Down. Action adventure game going through dungeons killing monsters in a fantasy medieval world with coop to boot? Yeah, it would have been great.
I would've bought a psp for that. Still have the music in my ears.
Alan Wake was announced as open world, back when it was a PC exclusive that Intel regularly demoed to show off their new multicore consumer CPUs. IIRC the engine in the finished game was still theoretically open world, the level structure was purely there for gameplay reasons
Yesss. The initial trailer had a town you could explore and basically what transpires in the first game would have been implemented in an open world concept. That trailer even featured cars, implying you could drive them to various locations etc.:( Sad we never got that.
EITR
was waiting the whole gen for this game but at this point...i just don´t really care anymore

Oh I was having trouble thinking of something but this is the one, 100%. It would be like Villeneuve's Dune being canceled at this point. What a waste of a fantastic creative team and idea.
