Cancelled Am Cry

Sam & Max 2 is the only one that comes to mind. A new game may appear in the future, but it wouldn't be a continuation of the LucasArts project.
 
Baldur's Gate 3 aka Jefferson- yup, there were even screens out for Christ sake.

Fallout 3 aka Van Buren - the REAL Fallout 3 not Bethesda's "take on Fallout franchise". Screens, videos it's all on NoMutantsAllowed.

Hurts so much. Bethesda will consolize the shit out of FO3.

Warcraft Adventures - a Blizzard adventure could do no bad.

Arx Fatalis 2 - renamed and redesigned to be the next Might and Magic game. With an action spin. ARGH!

Cancelled games I was looking forward to:

The Lost
Dead Rush
100 Bullets (fan of the comic and gunkata)

What's yours? Why did you choose them? I predict many mentions of Sam and Max

wtf I didn't even know 100 Bullets had a game coming out. Game I could see as axing the franchise...movie however...hmmmmmm

Don't worry, I played 100 bullets and it was horrible.
 
Ah, I had forgotten an extremely important one...

Outcast 2. That was a massive blow for me. I finished the original Outcast just 2 days before they announced the cancellation of OC2. My lord, that was crushing. OC was just an amazing experience all around. I played it in 2002, I believe, and I'd consider it my PC GOTY for that year (despite its actual release date in 1999). I was so disappointed when they announced that OC2 was cancelled.

-Dead or Alive (Tecmo) you are correct. it is to bad they had lack of pre-orders. So Tecmo canceled the game.

-Deep Fear (Sega)- I don't think Sega of America ever planned to release this in America. Now europe got a release.

-Devil Summoner (Atlus) yes this was canceled :(

-Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom (Capcom) I think this didn't come out becuase it took to long.

-Grandia (Sega) I don't recall Sega of America ever saying they would bring this game out.
-Lunar: Silver Star Story (Working Designs) yes, this was canceled, and to this day I dislike Working Design becuase this game was canceled, and switched to the PS1. Vic could have released the Saturn Lunar along side the PS1 version, but it was ok to realeasa a buggy Magic Knight Rayearth. He said He had released Magic Knight Rayearth for the fans, but he didn't think of the fans when he canceled Lunar.

-Policenauts (Konami).. Yes Konami didn't bring this out becuase they couldn't release it on the ps 1.

-Sakura Taisen (Working Designs) Actually Vic was interested in this game but he decided not to bring this out becuase he had just released Dragon Force. Vic was tired of strategey games.

-Steamgear Mash (Atlus) I never heard that Atlus was bringing this game out.

-Thunderforce V (Working Designs) Vic was considering bringing this game out, but then he jumped ship, so he brought it out on the PS 1.

-Thunderforce Collection (Working Designs) Sega actually stopped this game from coming out.

-WipEout 2097 (Sega) I never heard that this game was coming out.

-X-Men Vs Street Fighter (Capcom) this was not coming out. the only way Capcom would have brought this game was if Sega brought out the ram cart. Sega didn't want to pay the extra money.

A game that was going to come out was Paridous by Konami, but because Sony didn't want the game, Konami canceled it for the saturn too.

Europe actually got alot more games then America for the Saturn. For the European Saturn, the games they came over to American: wipeout 2097, Kieo Flying squadran 2, Paridous, Deep Fear, the first King of Fighters with the ram cart, Mega man X 3, and some other Psygnoises games.
Let not forger that Europe got Rez, Fighting vipers, Headhunters, and Shenmue2 for the Dreamcast. Gee Sega treats Europe better then America.
 
Sam and Max Hit the Road. The cancellation announcement was absolutley painful. Damn you Lucasarts!
Unity
The various RE 4 versions that were axed before the final version.
Earhtbound 64 and hell, I will throw Mother 3 in there. Hell will freeze before we get this one.

However, I am not sad that they cancelled the new Full Throttle game that was in the works. I had no hope for that whatsoever.
 
i always thought giest force looked really awesome too.

i'll also say B.C. hopefully it'll show up on 360 though

Baldur's Gate 3
Fallout 3
Picassio

That was part of why I chose to make this thread. I started wondering about it earlier this week. I remember seeing a preview in a mag for it back when Cube was still called Dolphin.

Cool site. Thanks for posting!
Man, even though it was going the 3D route, it still had the classic Fallout look- and much more so than that piece of shit 'Brotherhood of Steel' game for PS2.

I hope Bethesda doesn't screw with the formula too much...
I still have hope that Fallout 3 might turn out ok.

Damnit. You couldn't just throw salt in the wound. You also had to toss in some lemon juice, shards of glass, and then you had to gall to pour in some gunpowder and light the son of a bitch. :(

Give this person a cigar. God bless Black Isle - so much brilliance, such a short life span. /salute

I'll add Earthbound 64 - all I can think of is what if....

Agree 100%. Outcast was an amazing game for its time. I still listen to the soundtrack regularly.

I also miss Babylon 5: Into the Fire. I sent several emails to Sierra after they announced the cancelation begging them to at least sell the rights to the series if they weren't going to use it so someone else could create a game based on Babylon 5.

May you rot in hell for bring up old wounds.
 
Dunno if this is fact but it was rumored a few years back that The Collective were suppose to be in talks about making an Angel game. They kicked ass with the Buffy and Indy games they made. Too bad.

Oh and Evil Twin for the Dreamcast. I really wanted this game badly at one point. Though I eventually found it through very dark waters one night while sailing.:)
